Building MacPorts Py-Mysql on Leopard
fév 15th, 2008 by Prune
If you installed over your old Tiger or if you are new user, you may have experienced errors when trying to build py-mysql.Py-mysql is a Python module to connect to Mysql.I’m using it to have Django, the Python Web Framework, to connect to Mysql database. This is what I got when trying to install :
# port install py-mysql ---> Building py-mysql with target build Error: Target org.macports.build returned: shell command " cd "/opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_ports_python_py-mysql/work/MySQL-python-1.2.2" && /opt/local/bin/python2.4 setup.py build " returned error 1 Command output: running build running build_py copying MySQLdb/release.py -> build/lib.macosx-10.3-ppc-2.4/MySQLdb running build_ext building '_mysql' extension /usr/bin/gcc-4.0 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wno-long-double -no-cpp-precomp -mno-fused-madd -fno-common -fno-common -dynamic -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Dversion_info=(1,2,2,'final',0) -D__version__=1.2.2 -I/opt/local/include/mysql5/mysql -I/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.4/include/python2.4 -c _mysql.c -o build/temp.macosx-10.3-ppc-2.4/_mysql.o In file included from /opt/local/include/mysql5/mysql/mysql.h:47, from _mysql.c:40: /usr/include/sys/types.h:92: error: duplicate 'unsigned' /usr/include/sys/types.h:92: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers error: command '/usr/bin/gcc-4.0' failed with exit status 1 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
I tried to upgrade MacPorts… but I already had the latest.
# port selfupdate MacPorts base version 1.600 installed Downloaded MacPorts base version 1.600 The MacPorts installation is not outdated and so was not updated selfupdate done!
I finaly found the solution on http://rob.cogit8.org/blog/2007/Nov/14/installing-django-leopard-mac-os-105/
