Chris, I had exactly the same problem as you. I eventually found it was a bad idea to use the precompiled python version shipped with the binary package. In fact when I do : $ python
import _mysql
it works. However, when I do : $ $ZOPEHOME/bin/python
import _mysql
It doesn't. So, I think the best thing to do is to bypass the binary python shipped with the tarball. I'm dowloading the source version to check if it is ok. // -----Original Message----- // From: Chris Best [mailto:chris.best@bluesky-technologies.com] // Sent: Wednesday, March 08, 2000 9:04 AM // To: ewalstad@energywright.com // Subject: Zope MySQL // // // Eric // // I'm having almost exactly the same problem except build.py crashes with: // // ImportError: No module named _mysql // // If you get an answer before me could you let me know and I'll do // the same. // // Cheers // // Chris // Pierre-Julien
