I am, like many others, trying to get MySQLdb for Python to run on Mac Snow Leopard (10.6.x) and I've been able to install the 64-bit MySQL DMG as recommended by various blogs/forum posts, and I've been able to install the setuptools and MySQLDB itself by using the
ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py clean
ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py build
sudo ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py install
As you can see from the above I have upgraded to Python 2.7 and everything seems fine; except when I try to import MySQLdb into python shell.
>>> import MySQLdb

Referenced from: /Users/ad/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so
Reason: Incompatible library version: _mysql.so requires version 17.0.0 or later, but libmysqlclient.16.dylib provides version 16.0.0
I did a search and found libmysqlclient.16.dylib but not libmysqlclient.17.dylib
What is causing this problem, how do I resolve it, and even though I did a search for libmysqlclient.17.dylib there seems to be nothing about it; does it exist?
Thanks
You built the module against MySQL 5.5.x, but only the client libraries for 5.1.x are available on the system. Either install updated libraries, or build against an older version.
Definitely make sure that Python and MySQL are for the same architecture. You have to consistently use either 32bit or 64bit versions for both.
Also make sure that MySQLdb can find the MySQL libraries and includes, but from your error message it seems like this is the case.

I don't know much about python and I need help to install a python software.
I am using linux mint 12.8.
Since I have tried many things I think I have several versions of python installed (3.5 and 3.7 I think...).
When I run setup.py install I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/CommandNotFound.py", line 7, in <module>
import dbm.gnu as gdbm
File "/home/zach/10_Soft/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/dbm/gnu.py", line 3, in <module>
from _gdbm import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_gdbm'
I tried to install python3.5-gdbm (which appears to be up to date) and python3.7-gdbm (which is not found).
They both seem to be virtual packages of the same package python3-gdbm. I don't really know what to do with this information however...
Do you know what I should do?
I was able to solve this issue using this command:
sudo cp /usr/lib/python3.5/lib-dynload/_gdbm.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload/_gdbm.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
I have Python3.5 and Python3.6 installed on Ubuntu 16.04. I have installed pip for 3.6 and am using 3.6 for development. I tried to install a package (wordcloud) in 3.6 and it appeared to install correctly but I get the following error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/mnt/data/projects/CSC594/HW01/CSC594-DMARKS-HW01-WordCloud.py", line 11, in <module>

from PIL import Image
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 66, in <module>
from PIL import _imaging as core
ImportError: cannot import name '_imaging'
I am not sure what is happening but, python3 is a symbolic link to python3.5 yet when I execute the code, I am calling it in python3.6. Everything looks fine except when it calls the PIL package. PIL is actually installed in 3.6, but not 3.5.
I don't understand why it switches from:
/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages
to:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages
Why does this happen and how do I resolve this situation?
Trusty offers a 3.5 setup, and that won't change. It may be possible to have the two coexist in the way you suggest, but you are finding it challenging. Recommend deleting your python3.6. (Or switching to an ubuntu based on 3.6.)
Install miniconda3, and use that to provide python3.6, PIL, and friends. Very clean. You'll be glad you did.
Not able to install any packages
I've tried VLC package from https://wiki.videolan.org/python_bindings
and got a traceback.
Now I am trying pygame module and this is what i get
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#2>", line 1, in <module>

Please help i am pretty new to python
There are some release binaries for Python3.x, 64bit Windows at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#pygame
I suggest you download it from that site and install it. It works for me. If you are using Windows ,it is a good way to install some packages,like lxml matplotlib.
Also you check out this question.
Hope this helps.
I tried to execute your statements and the imports worked fine for me. I have a 64bit Windows OS. And my python version Python 3.5.2 - 64bit.
Check if you have other Python versions, if you have removed them, make sure you did that right.
Ultimately I would just suggest you to do pip install pygame. The version compatibility will be handled by pip itself.
I have Python 2.7.6 and Python 3.3.4 installed through homebrew. I ran into some errors when trying to use Sqlite and I traced the error to a "symbol not found" error. Please see the trace below.
How can I get this thing to work?

edit: Sqlite3 also seems to be properly installed (sqlite-3.8.3 already installed).
On a sidenote, why does homebrew stick with Python 2.7.6 while the Python website offers version 2.7.8 for download?
You need to run brew update; both the sqlite formula and the python formula have seen numerous updates.
Python 2.7.8 has been available since July 2nd, for example. Your SQLite problems have probably long been solved with updates as well.
It is always a good idea to run brew doctor when you are having problems with Homebrew-supplied software; the output would have told you to run brew update too:
$ brew doctor
Please note that these warnings are just used to help the Homebrew maintainers
with debugging if you file an issue. If everything you use Homebrew for is
working fine: please don't worry and just ignore them. Thanks!
Warning: Your Homebrew is outdated.
You haven't updated for at least 24 hours. This is a long time in brewland!
To update Homebrew, run `brew update`.
I need to install Python 2.7 on a machine, from source, alongside the existing version on the machine (2.4). I have compiled and installed Python successfully, but when I try to run a script calling the MySQLDB module, it throws the following error:
[root#the-node1 bin]# interactive_recording_archive.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/interactive_recording_archive.py", line 8, in <module>
import MySQLdb as mdb
ImportError: No module named MySQLdb
I have tried installing MySQLDB using the easy-install script but this fails to find any module by that name. I have MySQL installed and working on the machine.
What am I doing wrong?
The package is called MySQL-python:
easy_install MySQL-python
Do check the installation requirements; you have python and setuptools, but you need the mysql-devel package too.
