Geert, I've not seen this issue myself, however, you might get a little more luck asking over on the MySQLdb mailing list as this seems to be more an issue with the db than your python code. It might be worth posting your question there too as it'll heighten your chances of finding someone who knows MySQLdb inside out.

My backend is MySQL, and I have it running as a 64- bit app. Of course, apache2 is also running as 64-bit. MySQLdb installs with the usual warnings after applying the various patches I found here and there. These patches consist of altering _mysql.c and site.cfg. Basically, my problem boils down to this: File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in <module> File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/_mysql.py", line 7, in <module> File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-i386/egg/_mysql.py", line 6, in __bootstrap__ ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_mysql) Has anyone solved this? I been hunting around for 2 weeks now, and my deadline is looming grimly on the horizon :) Geert -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
