Well I can't seem to get MySQLdb to load into any version of Python-1.5.2 I've went from MySQL 3.22.32 to 3.22.30 from source ( that version works on Linux RH6.1 for me ) I've recompiled Python 1.5.2 from source I've recompiled GCC 2.95.1 from source ( all with --prefix=/sw/scm/usr ) I'm using the MySQLdb-0.1.2 that is part of MySQLDA-0.3.1 The Python error when loading MySQLdb is: Traceback (innermost last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? File "/sw/scm/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/MySQLdb.py", line 19, in ? import _mysql ImportError: ld.so.1: python1.5: fatal: relocation error: file /sw/scm/usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/_mysql.so: symbol PyTuple_New: referenced symbol not found Seperate question: I also am using the precompiled Zope sparc binary, which has a copy of Python 1.5.2, but I'm not of what to do with modules that I compile with my Python1.5.2 so that it uses them. Thanks for any hints, as Linux is my home box, but I need this to work on Solaris at work. On 31-Jan-01 Andy Dustman wrote:

Hi,

After having no problems at all with Zope 2.3, and Mysql on Linux RedHad6.1 I tried getting this to work on a Solaris 7 SPARC machine with no luck.

Im using:

Solaris 7 (SunOS 5.7 ) GCC 2.95.1 Zope 2.3.0 ZMySQLDA 1.2 MySQL 3.22.32 compiled from source Python 1.5.2, Python 1.6, Python2.0 all compiled with thread support.

When I try to load a ZMySQL object in Zope I keep getting the following error: Any ideas?

Was MySQLdb/_mysql compiled against the version of Python that you are using with Zope? In general, modules compiled against Python 1.5.2 won't load with Python 2.0, and vice versa. Interestingly, you seem to have installed _mysql in multiple places.

Thanks,
