如何在OSX 10.6中将MySQLdb与Python和Django一起使用？

Question

对于OSX 10.6用户，这是一个讨论很多的问题，但是我一直无法找到有效的解决方案。这是我的设置：

Python 2.6.1 64位Django 1.2.1 MySQL 5.1.47 osx10.6 64位

我使用–no-site-packages创建了一个virtualenvwrapper，然后安装了Django。当我激活virtualenv并运行python manage.py syncdb时，出现以下错误：

Traceback (most recent call last):

我还安装了MySQL for Python适配器，但无济于事（也许我安装不正确？）。

Answer 1

我有同样的错误，pip install MySQL-python并为我解决了。

备用安装：

• 如果你没有点子，easy_install MySQL-python应该可以。
• 如果你的python是由打包系统管理的，则可能必须使用该系统（例如sudo apt-get install ...）
  下面，Soli指出如果收到以下错误：
  

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

…然后你还有另一个系统依赖性问题。解决方案因系统而异，但对于Debian衍生的系统：

sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb
