对于OSX 10.6用户来说,这是一个备受争议的问题,但我找不到有效的解决方案.这是我的设置：

Python 2.6.1 64位
Django 1.2.1
MySQL 5.1.47 osx10.6 64位

我用–no-site-packages创建了一个virtualenvwrapper,然后安装了Django.当我激活virtualenv并运行python manage.py syncdb时,我收到此错误：

我也安装了MySQL for Python适配器,但无济于事(也许我安装不正确？).

以前有人处理过这个吗？

解决方法:

我有同样的错误和pip安装MySQL-python为我解决了它.

备用安装：

>如果你没有pip,easy_install MySQL-python应该可行.
>如果您的python由打包系统管理,您可能必须使用
该系统(例如sudo apt-get install …)

下面,Soli指出,如果您收到以下错误：

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

…那么你还有一个系统依赖问题.解决这个问题因系统而异,但对于Debian派生系统：

sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb
