Malformed Header

[Eric Wichterich]

Hi Kiran,

about the PYTHONPATH:
Simply write this small program or use a line-interpreter:
"import sys
print sys.path"

In case you are using Windows, I am afraid, I can't offer any real 
help. I use Mac OS X, so I don't know how to examine this special 
problem.

Maybe you could try reinstalling mysqldb and check if you did 
everything properly as mentioned in the install doc. Otherwise it could 
be a good idea to post again in this python-list-forum (e.g.: Subject: 
"Importing MySQLdb module causes malformed header error")

Cheers,
Eric
