MySQLdb is having trouble loading the MySQL client library. Since I assume MySQL is installed, my best guess is that you have an architecture problem. Your Python is probably running in 64-bit mode. Do you have a 64-bit MySQL install? The "file" command will tell you which architectures are in a binary if you're unsure. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
