Cannot install MySQL-Python

3down vote

It seems you have installed MySQL 5.5.10 and Python 2.6. Current version of MySQL-python (version 1.2.3) is supported from MySQL-3.23 through 5.0. However you can try installing it via ActivePython. If you install ActivePython to the default path, open terminal and run: /opt/ActivePython-2.6/bin/pypm install mysql-python I had the similar case with MySQL 5.5 and Python 2.7 on my Fedora 15 platform and it worked well for me. reference : http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6216009/cannot-install-mysql-python
