I'm setting up a django site on the production server and ran into a MySQLdb problem. The server is cycling through a series of error messages:
1) ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named MySQLdb 2) ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: bad local file header in /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.2- py2.5-linux-i686.egg 3) ExtractionError: Can't extract file(s) to egg cache The following error occurred while trying to extract file(s) to the Python egg cache: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/root/.python-eggs' The Python egg cache directory is currently set to: /root/.python-eggs Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory? You can change the cache directory by setting the PYTHON_EGG_CACHE environment variable to point to an accessible directory. 4) the "It worked! Congratulations on your first Django-powered page." This cycling happens just by refreshing the same page, making NO changes to the server at all. It's always in the same order. The first 2 text errors change after just 1 refresh, the last one takes 3 or 4 and the "It worked" message takes a bit longer before going back to error 1. I svn'ed the application into the appropriate directory, with urls.py, etc., so I shouldn't be getting the "It worked" message at all. I recently installed MySQLdb, and it installed setuptools automatically.
