I guess this is the meaning of 'experimental support'. Patches are
probably welcome, or you could use sqlite or postgres.

[Cj Taylor]

Correct, Sergiy.  As I fiddle with this nightly, the core of my issue seems 
to be that mysqldb is not yet python3 ready and django 1.5 is calling for 
it.  I changed my database settings in settings.py to '
django.db.backends.mysql' which in return calls for mysqldb when I do:

python manage.py syncdb


I suppose at this point I'm just seeking anyone who has tried to run django 
1.5 and has MySQL actually working.  If so, how?

django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named MySQLdb

[Cj Taylor]

Hello all,
  I'm new to Django and somewhat Python (a PHP refugee).  I have been 
learning Python 3.0 so decided to give 1.5 a run.  I tried to run the 
command below and mysqldb is missing.  I noticed on 
http://mysql-python.blogspot.com/ that mysqldb won't be ready for 3.0 until 
the 1.3 release.  So I guess the question is if there's any kind of 
workaround at the moment? 

Thanks,
  CJ

Have you created the virtual environment by using the --no-site-packages
command line switch to virtualenv? If so, no globally installed module/packages
(among them MySQLdb) will be inherited by the environment.

Either

fix your MySQLdb+virtualenv problem without using
WSGI, use the manage.py runserver development HTTP server)
first and then move to WSGI.

Or

Don't skip the reading the great mod_wsgi docs step, particularly
the topic about how to combine it with virtualenv:

Re: Error loading MySQLdb module: libmysqlclient_r.so.16 - Help please

[Adam Stein]

LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is the correct one to use when running from
your account (not to go into the discussion as to why some people think
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is evil), as evidenced when you run python on the
command line.

In the case of Django running through a web server, the web server is
not picking up the LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting you are using in your own
personal account.

The reason editing ld.so.conf works, is because you are globally setting
the library path to search.  Since ld.so.conf is a 'global' setting,
your Django application (python) picks it up from the system and finds
the library.

Another way (what I do) is to compile Python with the MySQL lib
directory (--with-libs configuration argument) so that Python can find
the library whenever it runs (no matter who's running it, me -- or the
web server).

Error loading MySQLdb module: libmysqlclient_r.so.16 - Help please

[NoCleverName]

So I'm having an issue getting Django to work with MySQL.  After I log into
my Django site, I get the following error:

ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: libmysqlclient_r.so.16:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The error is being thrown from
site-packages/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py line 13.

Unlike a lot of similar posts on the message board (I have searched), I have
MySQLdb installed.  The lines in question are just 'import MySQLdb as
Database' and the associated try/catch throwing the error.  When I run
python from a command line and type 'import MySQLdb' it imports just fine. 
I added to to the root's .bash_profile and the .bashrc of the 'mysql' user. 
The file definitely exists (in /usr/local/mysql/lib)

I used the variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the two profiles to make the 'import
MySQLdb' statement work, is that the correct environment variable?

As a note, I installed mysql from the .tar.gz files and MySQLpython from the
.tar.gz files as well.  I can't use any sort of package manager to install
this stuff.

This is the author again.  Of course, 10 minutes after I post a question, I
find the solution.  (After hours of searching beforehand)

If anyone else has this problem, the solution for me was:

edit /etc/ld.so.conf
add the line: /usr/local/mysql/lib

then run /etc/ldconfig

Fixed the problem right up.  No idea why or how this worked, but everything
is working now.
