There's a known issue in Python 2.6's Unicode APIs; py-appscript  
0.19.0+ contains a workaround for this.


BTW, Python modules/extensions are not officially binary compatible  
across major Python releases, so you should be installing afresh anyway.

What about the MySQL library itself, i.e. libmysqlclient?  Do you have a 
64-bit version of it?  The standard distribution from MySQL is not 
4-way, (and, for 5.1.30 at least, it's broken for 2-way: 
).

The support for 4-way universal builds in python is relatively new.  
There has been some discussion recently on the python-dev list about 
providing "official" 4-way installers for OS X.  This will probably get 
discussed more at the upcoming PyCon.

[Pythonmac-SIG] 64-bit mode no work

[Lars Clausen]

I've been trying to get mod_python and mysql to work on my Intel  
MacBook Leopard, but with very little luck. Disliking the idea of  
turning my MySQL and Apache into 32-bit (seems backwards), I have  
installed 64-bit versions of everything:


Hedwig:~ larsrc$ file `which python`
/usr/bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64
Hedwig:~ larsrc$ file /usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so
/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_python.so: Mach-O 64-bit bundle x86_64
Hedwig:~ larsrc$ file /Library/WebServer/.python-eggs/

/Library/WebServer/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.6-macosx-10.5- 
universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so: Mach-O universal binary with 4  
architectures
/Library/WebServer/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.2-py2.6-macosx-10.5- 
universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so (for architecture i386):	Mach-O bundle i386

bundle x86_64

Hedwig:~ larsrc$ file `which httpd`
/usr/sbin/httpd: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64

Even so, when I try to load a .py page with mysqldb (using Publisher  
-- the real reason I want Python!), I get the infamous


File "/Library/WebServer/Documents/Python/test.py", line 4, in  
 import MySQLdb
File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-universal/egg/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line  
19, in 
File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 7, in  

File "build/bdist.macosx-10.5-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 6, in  
__bootstrap__

ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_mysql)

I have been perusing a number of related pages (in order to get things  
to compile in the first place) that mostly seem to see this as a  
problem of 32/64-bit incompatibility, but with the entire stack being  
64-bit, surely it's something else. Any ideas?


Any ideas also why there is no 64-bit installation of Python for Mac?   
Given the presence of fat binaries, it seems like it would be a  
trivial task to have it.


As an aside, I got so fed up with trying to fix this that I switched  
briefly to IntelliJ + Java to implement my webservices. By the time I  
had gone through the tutorial to set up a sample web service, I had 6  
xml files in play but not a working web service. Publisher is just  
exemplary in its simplicity.


Thanks in advance,
-Lars

Looks like you might have a UCS-4 version of one Python and a UCS-2
version of the other.  Extension modules are not compatible between
the two, although usually you get a link error.

It's probably easiest just to reinstall install appscript on 2.6.
