前提:
mac没有安装mysql的server端,只想安装client端利用mysql-python连接远程的mysql服务器。

错误:
用 ‘pip install mysql-python’,安装时提示’mysql_config not found’错误:

Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
sh: mysql_config: command not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 20, in <module>
  File "/private/tmp/pip-build-NP8J3v/mysql-python/ setup.py", line 17, in <module>
    metadata, options = get_config()
  File "setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config
    libs = mysql_config("libs_r")
  File "setup_posix.py", line 25, in mysql_config
    raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" %     (mysql_config.path,))
EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

解决:

  1. brew install mysql-connector-c
  2. 找到 mysql_config 文件: which mysql_config
  3. 编辑这个mysql_config文件:
    找到这行: libs=”$libs -l “
    修改成: libs=”$libs -lmysqlclient -lssl -lcrypto”
  4. pip install mysqlclient
  5. pip install MySQL-python
