The problem of installing the adapter on MySql Python on a Windows 7 machine

Question

C: \ Users \ Me> easy_install MySQL-python

MySQL-python search

Reading [http://pypi.python.org/simple/MySQL-python/

Reading [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/

Reading [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python

Best match: MySQL-python 1.2.3

Download [http://download.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mysql-python/MySQL-pytho n-1.2.3.tar.gz

Processing MySQL-python-1.2.3.tar.gz

Running MySQL-python-1.2.3 \ setup.py -q bdist_egg --dist-dir c: \ users \ Me \ appdata \ Local \ Temp \ easy_install-ag_30a \ MySQL-python-1.2.3 \ egg-distance-tmp -mbyihd

Error: the system cannot find the specified file

Why does he look there? (c: \ users \ Me \ appdata \ Local \ Temp \ easy_install-ag_30a \ MySQL-python-1.2.3 \ egg-distance-tmp-mbyihd)

Note : I added '[' in front of all the http tags because new users cannot post more than two links.

How to resolve this?

Answer 1

You can download the binaries here, http://www.codegood.com/archives/129 , which will bypass easy_install all together. Also, stop using easy_install, use pip, this is much better.
