Question

when i use web.py to connect local mysql, some error show:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "code.py", line 7, in <module>
    db = web.database(dbn='mysql',user='root',pw='123456',db='pytable')
  File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/web.py-0.34-py2.6.egg/web/db.py", line 1078, in database
    return _databases[dbn](**params)

ImportError: dlopen(/Users/rlog/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so, 2): no suitable image found.  Did find:
    /Users/rlog/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so: mach-o, but wrong architecture

my python code like this:

import web
render = web.template.render('templates/')
urls = (
    "/(.*)","index"
)
app = web.application(urls,globals())
db = web.database(dbn='mysql',user='root',pw='123456',db='pytable')
class index:
    def GET(self):
        todos = db.select('todo')
        return render.index(todos)
if __name__=="__main__":app.run()

my python version is 2.6.1

how could i fix it ?

thanks

The mysql adaptor you’ve installed for Python is corrupt or for a different architecture. I’m not sure how you’ve installed it (or how these things work on OSX). Here’s a question that discusses the installation. If you get that right, it should work fine (assuming that the credentials are correct).
