MySQLdb for Python on Stoli

[danbalthasar]

Hi,

My previously working python script is now generating import errors - says it can't find MySQLdb. I assume this has something to do with the upgrade and perhaps MySQLdb not being reinstalled... Any chance that it could be reinstalled for stoli?

Here's the error message and offending portion of the script:

    2 import cgi, cgitb; cgitb.enable()
    3 import MySQLdb, datetime, calendar, re
    4 from decimal import Decimal
    5 import zipfile, os
    6 from os.path import join
MySQLdb undefined, datetime undefined, calendar undefined, re undefined
<type 'exceptions.ImportError'>: No module named MySQLdb 
      args = ('No module named MySQLdb',) 
      message = 'No module named MySQLdb'

Thanks!

Dan

The servers are being played with, so not everything may be installed right now. IF you still get this error after corey is done, make a new thread
though i will bug someone if i can

How long should I wait before opening a new thread on this? It's still not installed, but I'm not really sure when the maintenance is supposed to end.

I'm not sure if it's related, but I did initially have to ask to have MySQLdb installed on Stoli - it wasn't when I first signed up for the account.

Check the latest news and server alerts threads. These two should give your a pretty accurate info on which is the current server and which server is next or done.

Unless I'm looking in the wrong place, it seems like the updates on Stoli should be done by now, but I could very well be wrong.

I think the python module probably just needs to be reinstalled for Stoli...

My WordPress is down stating : Error connecting to database
Tried changing config file to read 'localhost' as NOW the MySQL reads 'localhost' instead of the mysql-blah blah etc.

Initially config for database read 'mysql-stoli.x10hosting.com' and worked fine.

Doesnt work either now.
