Hello
I am trying to use Django with mySQL. I have edited the settings.py
file in my project to point it towards the correct database but when I
try to use "manage.py syncdb" I get an error message that tells me
that there is no module named MySQLdb. I tried to install mySQLdb by
installing MySQL-Python without success (when I try to run the MySQL-
Python's setup.py I get the following error message:
C:\...\MySQL-python-1.2.3>setup.py install
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\...\MySQL-python-1.2.3\setup.py"
, line 15, in <module>
metadata, options = get_config()
File "C:\...\MySQL-python-1.2.3\setup_win
dows.py", line 7, in get_config
serverKey = _winreg.OpenKey(_winreg.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE,
options['registry_ke
y'])
WindowsError: [Error 2] The system cannot find the file specified
The readme file for MySQL-Python suggests that my problem is that I am
running windowsXP, but I don't know how to circumvent whatever
problems this is causing.
Does anyone know another way to get the module I need to let python
and the mySQL database talk?
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong with the MySQL-Python
installation?
I have no idea what I am doing (yet), so if you have any suggestions,
even obvious ones that only a dummy would appreciate, please let me
know.
Thanks in advance
Phage
