Hi all,
GOT IT!
I have every running now. So, to sum it all up:
I'm on a new intel mac with a 64-bit capable processor running macosx
10.5.2.
I have httpd (apache2) running as a 64 bit app, which it would of
course on a 64-bit machine. Activity monitor confirms this.
I compiled mysql from source, configured as stated below:
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 \
CFLAGS='-arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc7400 -arch ppc64' \
LDFLAGS='-arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc7400 -arch ppc64' \
CXXFLAGS='-arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc7400 -arch ppc64' \
./configure --disable-dependency-tracking --enable-thread-safe-
client
--prefix=/usr/local/mysql
Then came mod_wsgi, just out of the box.
Then came MySQLdb.
Extracted the tar, then edited _mysql.c. Commented lines 37 - 39:
//#ifndef uint
//#define uint unsigned int
//#endif
and changed this:
uint port = MYSQL_PORT;
uint client_flag = 0;
to this:
unsigned int port = MYSQL_PORT;
unsigned int client_flag = 0;
on lines 484 and 485
Then - but I don't know if this is really (always) necessary, in
site.cfg I changed Threadsafe = True to False.
I set the ARCHFLAGS, but I don't think this helped one inch.
ARCHFLAGS='-arch ppc -arch ppc64 -arch i386 -arch x86_64'
OK. So then I went sudo python setup.py build. (I realise that the
sudo isn't required just to do a build)
There, I noticed this:
creating build/temp.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5
gcc -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-long-double -no-cpp-precomp -mno-fused-
madd -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -Os -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -
DMACOSX -I/usr/include/ffi -DENABLE_DTRACE -pipe -
Dversion_info=(1,2,2,'final',0) -D__version__=1.2.2 -I/usr/local/mysql/
include/mysql -I/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/
2.5/include/python2.5 -c _mysql.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/
_mysql.o -arch i386 -arch x86_64 -arch ppc7400 -arch ppc64
You see, here _mysql.o is being created. If you do file _mysql.o, you
get:
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/temp.macosx-10.5-
i386-2.5/_mysql.o: Mach-O universal binary with 4 architectures
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/temp.macosx-10.5-
i386-2.5/_mysql.o (for architecture i386): Mach-O object i386
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/temp.macosx-10.5-
i386-2.5/_mysql.o (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit object
x86_64
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/temp.macosx-10.5-
i386-2.5/_mysql.o (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O object ppc
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/temp.macosx-10.5-
i386-2.5/_mysql.o (for architecture ppc64): Mach-O 64-bit object ppc64
which is ok.
But, strangely, when _mysql.so is created in the next step, gcc
doesn't add all the arch flags:
gcc -Wl,-F. -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -arch i386 -arch ppc
build/temp.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/_mysql.o -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -
lmysqlclient -lz -lm -o build/lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/_mysql.so
and you end up with this:
geert-dekkerss-imac:MySQL-python-1.2.2 geert$ file /Users/geert/
Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/_mysql.so
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/
_mysql.so: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/
_mysql.so (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386
/Users/geert/Desktop/MySQL-python-1.2.2/build/lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/
_mysql.so (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O bundle ppc
which is most definitely NOT ok.
So I did this:
sudo gcc -Wl,-F. -bundle -undefined dynamic_lookup -arch ppc -arch
ppc64 -arch i386 -arch x86_64 build/temp.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/_mysql.o
-L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lz -lm -o build/
lib.macosx-10.5-i386-2.5/_mysql.so
adding the arch flags myself, and running gcc again, under sudo.
and lo and behold....

Well, it only took 20 years off my life span and all the hairs on my
head :)
