But when i try to run a file with code :

import MySqldb;

through

python index.py

it returns :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "index.py", line 1, in <module>
import MySqldb;
ImportError: No module named MySqldb

Please help..??

Answer 1

The module is called MySQLdb - watch the case:

import MySQLdb

Demo:

>>> import MySqldb
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named MySqldb
>>> import MySQLdb
>>> MySQLdb.__version__
'1.2.5'
