Hey Kumar, I like to think that the amount of time I could make anyone here spend looking for something is VERY well spent. That link you sent me is just 1 of the about 50 I searched on google before posting the problem. :-) I can tell you now that cp, mv and ln are not the solution. I can also tell you that there's someone posting this and the patch to MySQL-python sourceforge site as a bug in the setup_posix.py file (which didn't solve my problem) Finally I can also tell you that after compiling MySQL 5.0.51a from source my /usr/local/mysql/lib and /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql look like this: $ dir /usr/local/mysql/lib/ total 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 Feb 20 01:55 . drwxr-xr-x 11 root wheel 374 Feb 20 01:56 .. drwxr-xr-x 14 root wheel 476 Feb 20 01:55 mysql $ dir /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/ total 3616 drwxr-xr-x 14 root wheel 476 Feb 20 01:55 . drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 102 Feb 20 01:55 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 12168 Feb 20 01:55 libdbug.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 40048 Feb 20 01:55 libheap.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 351896 Feb 20 01:55 libmyisam.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 21128 Feb 20 01:55 libmyisammrg.a -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 375120 Feb 20 01:55 libmysqlclient.15.0.0.dylib lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 27 Feb 20 01:55 libmysqlclient.15.dylib -> libmysqlclient.15.0.0.dylib -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 492440 Feb 20 01:55 libmysqlclient.a lrwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 27 Feb 20 01:55 libmysqlclient.dylib -> libmysqlclient.15.0.0.dylib -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 877 Feb 20 01:55 libmysqlclient.la -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 262088 Feb 20 01:55 libmystrings.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 262940 Feb 20 01:55 libmysys.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 5848 Feb 20 01:55 libvio.a I run out of ideas now... after 3 days searching and testing... HELP would be much appreciated. Thanks guys On Feb 20, 2008 3:08 AM, Chetan Kumar <chetan.mlist@gmail.com> wrote:
