cl.exe is the MSVC++ compiler, which I believe setup.py tries to use on Windows. If you don't have VC++, you don't have cl.exe :S Andy Dustman wrote:

Side note: you don't need the egenix stuff for ZMySQLDA. MySQLdb will use mx.DateTime, if it is available, but not with ZMySQLDA. ZMySQLDA uses Zope's DateTime.
with this I get this error after zope restart (there is the image of a brokenproduct: zmysqlda): import _mysql ImportError: No module named _mysql
b) I download the source of mysql-python (mysql-python-0.9.0) and distutils 1.0.2. I set the path to c:\zope\bin and i do: python setup.py install (for distutils) and python setup.py build (for mysql-python) at this point after some lines there is an error it says that cannot find cl.exe (I also try to search on hard disk for cl.exe, but nothing)and exit...
I don't know what cl.exe is.
Generally speaking, if Zope has raises ImportError on importing _mysql, this means that MySQLdb is not installed where Zope can find it. If you are compiling it yourself, you must use the same python binary that Zope uses when it runs. I assume this is what you are trying to do in the second example. The prebuilt MySQLdb probably doesn't install in your Zope installation but in your normal Python installation. If you copy those files into $ZOPEHOME/lib/python, it should work. You need to copy three things: a) _mysql.so (probably _mysql.pyd for windows), b) _mysql_exceptions.py, c) the MySQLdb directory and contents.
