在RHEL 6中为python2.7安装MySQLdb

Question

I am trying to get django 1.9 running in RHEL 6. I have installed python2.7 and when I try to install MySQLdb, I get the errors shown below. I have googled and googled and tried many different things, all with no success. Can anyone please let me know how I can get this going?

I did see this: Installing mysql-python on Centos and when I tried this:

yum install mysql mysql-devel mysql-lib 

I got this:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I tried this:

yum install MySQL-python

and got this:

Package MySQL-python-1.2.3-0.3.c1.1.el6.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

But when I run django I get:

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

/usr/local/bin/python2.7

import MySQLdb Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in ImportError: No module named MySQLdb

So clearly I do not have MySQLdb for python 2.7.

About the yum dependencies issue with php-mysql, I recommend to switch to php-mysqlnd which have no dependency on libmysqlclient.

See: http://php.net/mysqlnd

To switch in a single transaction, you need to use yum shell:

# yum shell --enablerepo=remi
> remove php-mysql
> install php-mysqlnd
> run
