I've never used MySQLDA without MySQLdb. I would try to follow the steps in the howto that deals with installing mysql (including the steps for installing MySQLdb) in order to get the thing working. It sounds like you couldn't compile MySQLdb because you didn't have the right libraries for MySQL. "Eric L. Walstad" wrote:
Well, I thought I had it working...
I am trying to get MySQL to work with Zope. I installed ZMySQLDA and was able to make a connection to a database. I was even able to make an SQL method that added records to the table. However, when I added a method to lookup a record in the table, I get the following error when I "Add and Test" it from Zope:
Error, exceptions.ImportError: /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/_mysqlmodule.so: undefined symbol: Py_InitModule3
This is the same error I got when I tried to install MySQLdb. That's why I tried to install MySQLDA instead.
However, I can't tell if this error stems from C or from Python. I don't know much about Python (the book I ordered isn't here yet), but it looks like the error is starting there.
If anyone has run into this error before, or has a clue as to how to fix it, please let me know.
OR, if you have a working Zope/MySQL combo and wouldn't mind sending me a copy of your '_mysqlmodule.so' binary, maybe that would do it?
Thanks,
Eric.
