pypyodbc connection to Filemaker throws "list index out of range" error

Question

Trying to connect a python script to our filemaker db. It was working with a previous copy of db but recently connecting to new version, it started throwing an error "list index out of range" when trying to grab a table from the DB.

Using Python 3.7.4, pypyodbc 1.3.4, and filemaker Pro 13.0v3 Also using Filemaker ODBC driver 13.2.14

query = 'SELECT * FROM Projects'
con_str = "DSN=%s;Database=%s;UID=%s;PWD=%s" % (DSN, DB, User, PW)
with pypyodbc.connect(con_str) as connection:
    cursor = connection.cursor()              
    cursor.execute(query)

The connection is correctly established or at least, returns the correct object. And I assure there is a table that corresponds to the query:

Some previous noise regarding a similar error that supposedly has been resolved in subsequent releases: pypyodbc execute returns list index out of range error

also tried setting Autocommit to True, but still get error:

Any help is appreciated.

Edit - added traceback per request:
