Hello all, I'm new to Django and somewhat Python (a PHP refugee). I have been learning Python 3.0 so decided to give 1.5 a run. I tried to run the command below and mysqldb is missing. I noticed on http://mysql-python.blogspot.com/ that mysqldb won't be ready for 3.0 until the 1.3 release. So I guess the question is if there's any kind of workaround at the moment?
Thanks, CJ ~/www$ python3 manage.py syncdb Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py", line 14, in <module> import MySQLdb as Database ImportError: No module named MySQLdb During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "manage.py", line 10, in <module> execute_from_command_line(sys.argv) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 451, in execute_from_command_line utility.execute() File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 390, in execute self.fetch_command(subcommand).run_from_argv(self.argv) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 270, in fetch_command klass = load_command_class(app_name, subcommand) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/__init__.py", line 76, in load_command_class module = import_module('%s.management.commands.%s' % (app_name, name)) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/utils/importlib.py", line 35, in import_module __import__(name) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/commands/syncdb.py", line 8, in <module> from django.core.management.sql import custom_sql_for_model, emit_post_sync_signal File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/core/management/sql.py", line 9, in <module> from django.db import models File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/__init__.py", line 40, in <module> backend = load_backend(connection.settings_dict['ENGINE']) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/__init__.py", line 34, in __getattr__ return getattr(connections[DEFAULT_DB_ALIAS], item) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/utils.py", line 85, in __getitem__ backend = load_backend(db['ENGINE']) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/utils.py", line 26, in load_backend return import_module('.base', backend_name) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/utils/importlib.py", line 35, in import_module __import__(name) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.2/dist-packages/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py", line 17, in <module> raise ImproperlyConfigured("Error loading MySQLdb module: %s" % e) django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named MySQLdb -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
