How to use MySQLdb with Python and Django in OSX 10.6?

by

I had the same error and pip install MySQL-python solved it for me.

Alternate installs:

  • If you don’t have pip, easy_install MySQL-python should work.
  • If your python is managed by a packaging system, you might have to use
    that system (e.g. sudo apt-get install ...)

Below, Soli notes that if you receive the following error:

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

… then you have a further system dependency issue. Solving this will vary from system to system, but for Debian-derived systems:

sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb
