Many problems encountered when adding MySQLdb

Install mysqldb in linux:
1. Create/usr/local/python
2. Copy setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg to/usr/local/python
3. Execute sh setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg
4.copy mysql-python-1.2.3.tar.gz to the current directory
5. Extract
6. Modify mysql_config in site. cfg to the mysql_config path under the mysql installation directory, for example,/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config.
7. Execute python setup. py build
8. Execute python setup. py install
9. After the operation is successful, run import MySQLdb to check whether the operation is successful. Generally, the following error occurs:

Mysqldb installation error:
1.zip import. ZipImportError: can't decompress data; zlib not available
Solution: recompile the Python source code installation package as follows:
1 tar jxvf Python-2.5.2.tar.bz2 2 cd Python-2.5.2/
3 ls
4 sudo./configure 5 gvim Modules/Setup
6 sudo gvim Modules/Setup
Locate about 454 rows here
# Zlib zlibmodule. c-I $ (prefix)/include-L $ (exec_prefix)/lib-lz
Remove comments
Zlib zlibmodule. c-I $ (prefix)/include-L $ (exec_prefix)/lib-lz
Then re-compile and install python
