Yes I am a newbie to MySQL and Zope 2 ... However I have installed MySQLdb-0.1.0 and applied applied the patch that comes with it to MySQLDA. And I got MySQLdb working in a little python session. So the question is: what is the magic connection string that I have to give to the form when I want to add a "Z MySQL Database Connection". Sorry if I missed some very explicit instructions, but an honest attempt was made to do the homework. Thanks for your indulgences, Joseph Mann _______________________________________________ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope (To receive general Zope announcements, see: http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce For developer-specific issues, zope-dev@zope.org - http://www.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
