MySQLdb problems

[Asle Pedersen]

I forward a reply from a similar message to yours on the group just a couple
of days agoe.
The reply was posted by Jeff Bauer, Rubicon Research (not posted to the

Check out the starship:

ftp  starship.python.net
cd /pub/crew/jbauer
get mysql-python151-win32.zip

This compiled version appears to work okay,
but I don't use or support it.

Grab the two files from the same
ftp location:

  MySQL.pyd
  libmySQL.dll

Place these files in your Python home directory.
You may also want to replace your original python.exe
and python15.dll from the distribution.

---------------------------
I have not tried this yet but I think it will work.
