    Python Eggs on Cygwin

    Hi,

    I'm trying to use MySQL Python module on Cygwin. Since there is no
    binary package, I compiled MySQL C client library and Python module
    (http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python) manually.

    But when I was trying to load MySQLdb module, following errors
    happened.
    >>import MySQLdb
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
    File "build/bdist.cygwin-1.5.22-i686/egg/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line
    19, in ?
    File "build/bdist.cygwin-1.5.22-i686/egg/_mysql.py", line 7, in ?
    File "build/bdist.cygwin-1.5.22-i686/egg/_mysql.py", line 6, in
    __bootstrap__
    ImportError: Permission denied

    This seems to be Eggs/Cygwin problem. Is there any solution?

    Regards,

      The following is a WAG...

      Does the MySQL Python module contain shared extension modules (i.e.,
      DLLs)? If so, are they executable? If not, then make them so (i.e.,
      chmod +x).

          I did:

          % unzip MySQL_foo_bar.e ggs
          % chmod +x MySQL_foo_bar.e ggs/_mysql.dll
          % zip -r MySQL_foo_bar.e ggs MySQL_foo_bar.e ggs

          but got the same result. After trials and errors, I found unzipped
          eggs were cached in the $HOME/.python-eggs/ directory!

          % chmod +x ~/.python-eggs/MySQL_foo_bar/_mysql.dll

          did the trick and MySQL module was loaded successfully.

          Thanks for your advice.
