Hi. I just installed Zope, and I'm having a little difficulty installing either of the modules to connect to a MySQL database. I have tried both ZMySQLDA-1.1.3 and MySQLdb-0.1.0. I am always ending up with the same error:
gcc -fpic -I/usr/local/mysql/include -I/usr/include/mysql -g -O2 -I/usr/loc al/include/python1.5 -I/usr/local/include/python1.5 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c ./MySQLmodule.c ./MySQLmodule.c: In function `pythonify_row': ./MySQLmodule.c:238: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type ./MySQLmodule.c: In function `pythonify_res_fields': ./MySQLmodule.c:384: invalid lvalue in unary `&' ./MySQLmodule.c: In function `STH_fetchdict': ./MySQLmodule.c:1125: invalid lvalue in unary `&' ./MySQLmodule.c:1147: invalid lvalue in unary `&' make: *** [MySQLmodule.o] Error 1
Both modules give me similar errors, the one above is from ZMySQLDA-1.1.3. I'm running Linux 6.0 and I I have python1.5 installed. Any ideas?
MySQLmodule (which comes with ZMySQLDA) doesn't work with MySQL-3.22. I have a newer interface (MySQLdb) which does. There's a nice HOWTO on how to patch ZMySQLDA to use it at: http://www.zope.org/Members/alanpog/zmysqlda_steps -- andy dustman | programmer/analyst | comstar.net, inc. telephone: 770.485.6025 / 706.549.7689 | icq: 32922760 | pgp: 0xc72f3f1d "Therefore, sweet knights, if you may doubt your strength or courage, come no further, for death awaits you all, with nasty, big, pointy teeth!"
