python installation mysql-python concise notes (ubuntu environment)

This article describes how to install mysql-python in python. Share it with everyone for your reference, the details are as follows:

Operations under ubuntu system

First installed the pip tool

sudo apt-get install python-pip

Then use

sudo pip install mysql-python

Install third-party libraries. But an error is reported at this time

sh: mysql_config: not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "setup.py", line 15, in <module>
  metadata, options = get_config()
 File "/home/zhxia/apps/source/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config
  libs = mysql_config("libs_r")
 File "/home/zhxia/apps/source/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 24, in mysql_config
  raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (mysql_config.path,))
EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

The reason is that: libmysqlclient-dev

is not installed

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

Continue the installation and find that an error is still reported

mysql.c:29:20: fatal error: Python.h: There is no such file or directory, and the Python header file cannot be found. Does wheezy not install the python development package by default?

sudo dpkg -l | grep python-dev

Sure enough, it doesn’t exist, you really need to install it:

sudo apt-get install python-dev

MySQL-python can be compiled and passed.
