[Zope] ZMySQLDA problem after following HOW TO...

[Robert Geiger]

Well, just to update the readers,

I went back and deleted everything installed by the "How-To..." and tried it
just using the directions for the "Software Product: ZMySQLDA" by MikeP.

That worked perfectly.  I am using SuSE 6.2 on my server and did not need
any other files.  Just followed the directions.  Recommended.

Someone with more experience than I might want to figure out when one really
needs to use the How-To, rather than the product instructions.  Even though
people tried to save me some trouble, and it looked like a good thing given
the dates on the how-to vs the instructions, there were subtle differences
that made my experience different from some others.

Perhaps the List party line should be:  if the instructions do not work for
you, then check out this how-to.

Of course, I outsmarted myself, too, by not trying those instructions first!

Thanks again to all.

I followed the directions in the How-To by alanpog.  Everything seemed to go
along well.  I restarted and checked the control panel only to find a
'broken' installation...

Here is the Traceback...

Product at /Control_Panel / Products / ZMySQLDA

ZMySQLDA Import Traceback

Traceback (innermost last):
  File "/pub/Zope/lib/python/OFS/Application.py", line 387, in
import_products
    product=__import__(pname, global_dict, global_dict, silly)
  File "lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/__init__.py", line 106, in ?
    import sys, os, Globals, DA
  File "/pub/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/DA.py", line 108, in ?
    from db import DB
  File "/pub/Zope/lib/python/Products/ZMySQLDA/db.py", line 106, in ?
    import _mysql, regex, sys
ImportError: No module named _mysql


The How-To was excellent and I thank alan. Thank you in advance for any
assistance with this problem.

Robert
