I try to use MySQLdb module with my Python code for the first time. This is what I see:
import MySQLdb
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named MySQLdb
your code here
For Debian, the package for MySQLdb module is python-mysqldb.
# apt-get install python-mysqldb
Now, let’s verify if MySQLdb module has been correctly installed:
>>> import MySQLdb
>>>
No more import error message, which means you can start using MySQldb module now.

But if you’re on Windows XP, how would you get it running? We have a client that came in with his computer and also needed to get MySQL and Python working on the computer. Most of the solutions so far relate to UNIX/Linux and nothing for Windows users.
Would be grateful if you could show how to get it running on Windows.
