Can you post the actual error message?

What are you querying that gets you datetime.interval[0]?

So to be clear no error is thrown, correct?

You are just not seeing what you expect.

First what are the values in that field in the database itself?

Second could it be (datetime.datetime.now() - self.start_time) is
returning the correct result. In other words that now() and
self.start_time are the same. Have you looked at what those values are
as the script runs?

I ask because you have self.start_time created twice in your code:

1) In the __init__ as self.start_time = datetime.datetime

2) In startRecording as self.start_time = datetime.datetime.now()

I am not sure, but I have to believe that is causing at least part of
your issue.

Had some time to run the attached code. Other then making a change to
the database in connect() and adding some print functions it is the
same. Running the application I got an interval in the sessionduration
field. Details below:

postgres@test=# \d sessionlogs
               Table "public.sessionlogs"
      Column      |          Type          | Modifiers
-----------------+------------------------+-----------
  sessiondate     | date                   |
  sessiontime     | time without time zone |
  sessionduration | interval(0)            |
  sessiondesc     | text                   |

aklaver@killi:~> python testProductivityApp.py

The only way I could get only 0's was to have a duration less then 0.5
seconds. So the code works here.
