库未加载：@rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib 原因：找不到图像 Django 使用 mysqlclient DB 驱动程序迁移错误和 MySQL 8 with macOS

Question

While changing to a MySQL database from the default SQLite one that Django uses by default, I ran into this tricky error while trying to run python manage.py migrate --database mysql :

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

Did you install mysqlclient?

I received this error after having already installed mysqlclient via pip install mysqlclient and its connector through Homebrew with brew install mysql-connector-c , so this is a bit of a puzzling error. Even after following the connector instructions by modifying the mysql_config file in the connector's bin folder, I still ran into this issue. This does appear to be at least somewhat related to that I'm running macOS given the documentation on this connector's known bug.

Upon inspecting my stack trace further, I noticed the Library not loaded: @rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib error up near the top. Shortly after that is another possible clue I found: Reason: image not found , but I'm not quite sure what that's supposed to mean.

I did poke around in /usr/local/Cellar/mysql-connector-c to see if there was anything possibly missing with the connector I installed, and sure enough, the libmysqlclient.21.dylib file was missing. In its place was what I assume is an older version of the file since it was named libmysqlclient.18.dylib . Out of curiosity, I copied the .dylib that my MySQL install came with and moved that copy under the same name to the connector's folder and to /usr/local/lib where I also found another libmysqlclient.18.dylib file. However, my migration still failed, but I did get a slightly different stack trace:

Did you install mysqlclient?

This time I get the following error:

Reason: no suitable image found.  Did find:
        /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib: file too short
        /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib: file too short

With that, I suspect the problem may have something to do with the .dylib version that my MySQL connector installed with, but I'm not sure how to fix this exactly. I do find it curious that simply copying a file over managed to change my stack trace ever so slightly so I guess I ought to look into that more. Thoughts?

Answer 1

只需在 /usr/local/lib 中创建一个符号链接

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib

Answer 2

I've recently had this issue when I was trying to install Django and mod_wsgi on my MacBook pro (MacOS Catallina). Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, adding sym link and moving the libmysqlclient.21.dylib to /usr/lib/ didn't work. I had to struggle for a few days but finally I got this solution. The thing is I had to modify the library path in the libmysqlclient.21.dylib . Fortunately we have a tool to do it. The culprit was @rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib . It looked like @rpath wasn't working.

Ok you can check the paths referred in a .so file using otool . It comes with Xcode. This is what you get when you run it on the mysql .so file (should be in the MySQLdb directory under your site-packages).

$ otool -L _mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so

_mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so:
    @rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib (compatibility version 21.0.0, current version 21.0.0)
    libssl.1.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.1.0, current version 1.1.0)
    libcrypto.1.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.1.0, current version 1.1.0)
    /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1281.100.1)

So we modify the filepath in the _mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so. There is a tool for that. It is install_name_tool . I ran these commands. Basically I changed @rpath to absolute path, and also the libssl and the licrypto paths to absolute path.

$ install_name_tool -change @rpath/libmysqlclient.21.dylib /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib _mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so

$ install_name_tool -change libssl.1.1.dylib /usr/local/mysql/lib/libssl.1.1.dylib  _mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so

$ install_name_tool -change libcrypto.1.1.dylib /usr/local/mysql/lib/libcrypto.1.1.dylib _mysql.cpython-38-darwin.so

My Django worked great after these changes.

So it turns out that I managed to solve my issue albeit in a bit of an unorthodox manner. If anyone else is using mysqlclient with a version of Python 3 and MySQL 8, give this a try and see if it helps! :)

I simply made a copy of the libmysqlclient.21.dylib file located in my installation of MySQL 8.0.13 which is was in /usr/local/mysql/lib and moved that copy under the same name to /usr/lib .

You will however need to temporarily disable security integrity protection on your mac to do this since you won't have or be able to change permissions to anything in /usr/lib without disabling it. You can do this by booting up into the recovery system, click Utilities on the menu at the top, and open up the terminal and enter csrutil disable into the terminal. Just remember to turn security integrity protection back on when you're done doing this! The only difference from the above process will be that you run csrutil enable instead.

After I did this, I ran my migrations like I did before on the new database and it worked! I honestly don't know how good of a solution this really is, but so far everything's been working perfectly since I changed the copy of .dylib the connector was using. I hope this helps if you also have this issue!

The symlink solution worked for me, but after linking the first file, I got the same error message for a different file name. In total, I had to symlink three different files.

sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libssl.1.1.dylib /usr/local/lib/libssl.1.1.dylib
sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libcrypto.1.1.dylib /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.1.1.dylib

Answer 5

My project with Python 3.6 was lookin for libmysqlclient.21.dylib. I installed brew install mysql-client. It installed mysql-client 8.0. it has libmysqlclient.21.dylib. Where as i wanted to use mysql@5.6. So I copied the libmysqlclient.21.dylib from /usr/local/Cellar/mysql-client/8.0.19/lib to /usr/local/lib/

sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/mysql-client/8.0.19/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib /usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib

Answer 6

I tried a lot of things but it ended up being as simple as renaming the folder mysql-8.0.26-macos11-x86_64 to "mysql" in usr/local/mysql-8.0.26-macos11-x86_64/lib/libmysqlclient.21.dylib. As soon as I did that, everything worked fine.
