Hi,
I'm trying to set up MySQL database connectivity as per the
http://plone.org/documentation/kb/plone-and-mysql/tutorial-all-pages
tutorial on the Plone site .
Here are my versions:
* Plone 3.3.5
* CMF 2.1.2
* Zope (unreleased version, python 2.4.5, linux2)
* Python 2.4.5 (#1, May 26 2009, 16:04:26) [GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat
4.1.2-44)]
* PIL 1.1.6
I have endeavored to install MySQL Python and Zope ZMySQLDA as follows:
1. Locate the latest version of
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/files/mysql-python/1.2.3/MySQL-python-1.2.3.tar.gz/download
MySQL-python , download and unpack.
2. As per the README instructions (as root):
Build: /usr/local/Plone/Python-2.4/bin/python setup.py build
Install: /usr/local/Plone/Python-2.4/bin/python setup.py install
3. Check MySQL-Python installed:
/usr/local/Plone/Python-2.4/bin/python
Python 2.4.5 (#1, May 26 2009, 16:04:26)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import MySQLdb
>>>
4. Add Products.ZMySQLDA to my buildout.cfg.

Products.NuPlone
Products.CacheSetup
Products.PloneFormGen
Products.LDAPUserFolder
Products.LDAPMultiPlugins
Products.PloneLDAP
Products.ZMySQLDA
5. Run a buildout:
./bin/buildout
However, on restarting Plone, and entering the ZMI, I am unable to add a Z
MYSQL Database Connection. This simply does not exist in the dropdown menu
(although I do see Z SQL Method in the dropdown menu).
Anyone got any pointers?
Cheers, Jim
