    group/apache/cgi-bin/fig28_18.py

    I have connected all databases already. If I remove the import MySQL
    statement, theres no problem. But i need to use the database. . what
    could possibly be wrong???

    pls help.. I have the MySQLdb installed in my Python directory
    already..

    Hello Kiran,

    hmmm. Ensure that MySQL-DB-accesses are allowed for python (maybe use
    PHPMyAdmin to administrate MySQL and select the appropriate options).
    You can set from which IPs MySQL-accesses are allowed (e. g.
    "localhost" if Python and MySQL are running on same computer) and which
    privileges are granted for this IP.

    Have you checked PYTHONPATH whether the right MySQLdb-module is
    imported (if you have more than one versions of python or mysqldb
    installed)?

    Hmmm. I think a password statement is missing in your code " connection
    = MySQLdb.connect( db = "try" ) "

    Here is an example of my statement which works fine:

    "db = MySQLdb.connect(host="localhost", db="mydatabase",
    user="thegreatestuser", passwd="mypassword")"

    Maybe this helps?

    Cheers,
    Eric

    When I downloaded the MySQLdb module, i installed it in the?python
    directory. Im not sure if i should have installed it on apache instead.
    ?
    Im sorry but this is my first time to use python and im not really
    familiar with all the terminologies. Im not sure if the local host you
    mentioned is the same one as the one in control panel>Administrative
    tools>Data Sources.. this is where i connected the SQL driver and the
    database?called 'try' and the host is "127.0.0.1"-apache settings
    ?
    How do i check the PYTHONPATH? Im pretty sure i have only 1 python
    installed.
    ?
    I tried doing this too...
    "db = MySQLdb.connect(host="127.0.0.1", db="try")" - i dint put the
    username and password coz i did not set any.
    ?
    BUt it still wont work... same error...
    ?
    From all my checking and testing, im pretty sure the error occurs in
    the 'import MySQLdb' line. But i dont knw where else i could import it
    from...
    ?
    Thanks Eric!

    Hi Kiran,

    about the PYTHONPATH:
    Simply write this small program or use a line-interpreter:
    "import sys
    print sys.path"

    In case you are using Windows, I am afraid, I can't offer any real
    help. I use Mac OS X, so I don't know how to examine this special
    problem.

    Maybe you could try reinstalling mysqldb and check if you did
    everything properly as mentioned in the install doc. Otherwise it could
    be a good idea to post again in this python-list-forum (e.g.: Subject:
    "Importing MySQLdb module causes malformed header error")

    Cheers,
    Eric
