I've got this error (see the path in last line) db=MySQLdb.connect(host='localhost',use_unicode = True, charset = "Windows-1251",user='root',passwd='12',db='articulos') File "C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\MySQLdb\__init__.py", line 74, in Connect return Connection(*args, **kwargs) File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\MySQLdb\connections.py", line 198, in __init__ self.set_character_set(charset) File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\MySQLdb\connections.py", line 277, in set_character_set super(Connection, self).set_character_set(charset) OperationalError: (2019, "Can't initialize character set Windows-1251 (path: C:\\mysql\\\\share\\charsets\\)")
The truth of the matter is, MySQL is not installed in that path, but into Program Files. I don't know where the hardcoding is, but it is certainly somewhere. Except MySQL is reporting a wrong installation path. I haven't found any other topic in the list about this problem. I'm using Python 2.4 and latest MySQLdb. Have anyone heard of this issue and how to fix it? Thanks a lot. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
