I also had this error when installing on a box running MySQL 3.22.27. I went to the Mandrake linux site and grabbed the 3.22.25 rpms that they shipped with version 6.0 or 6.1 (I can't remember). The site is at www.linuxmandrake.com. I presume that the ftp server is ftp.linuxmandrake.com. Everything worked flawlessly from there. --sam Nick Garcia wrote:

I can query mysql and get results from within the python command line.

So that works ok. When I perfomr the make -f Makefile.pre.in boot there is no error.

However when I perfomr the make I get an error as fallows

[root@localhost src]# make gcc -fpic -I/usr/local/mysql/include -I/usr/include/mysql -g -O2 -I/usr/include/python1.5 -I/usr/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

I read about the fixed bug [40] Zope Doc_Request: Make failures for ZmySQLDA

I do not know if this is a related issue.

Facts. I installed MySQL rpm 3.22.27-1. I have installed python-MySQLmodule-1.4.0-7.i386.rpm and python python-devel-1.5.2-2.i386.rpm and zope Zope-2.1.1-linux2-x86.tgz. on redhat 6.1 kernel 2.2.12 Thank you for any help

I got this same error when I was trying to compile it under Solaris 2.6. My solution was to switch to using MySQLdb instead of MySQLmodule. You can find MySQLdb in the Contributed Products section of www.zope.org. You'll have to patch the ZMySQLDA to be able to use it (the patch is included in the MySQLdb distribution).
