Hi All,
I am trying to install MySQLdb package. I found the source code here.
I did the following:
gunzip MySQL-python-1.2.3c1.tar.gz
tar xvf MySQL-python-1.2.3c1.tar
cd MySQL-python-1.2.3c1
python setup.py build
As the result I got the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 5, in ?
from setuptools import setup, Extension
ImportError: No module named setuptools
Does anybody knows how to solve this problem? By the way, if I am able to do the described step, I will need to do the following:
sudo python setup.py install
And I have no system-administrator-rights. Do I still have a chance to install MySQLdb?
Thank you.
