I am attempting to learn how to use MiddleKit against MySQL. I am running WebWare 0.8 Released. The set of instructions/tutorial I have found has MiddleKit attempting to talk to MySQL using MySQLdb. I am running it in Python 2.3. However, the only versions of MySQLdb I can find are for pre - Python 2.3. I am unable to find a version of MySQLdb that will run in Python 2.3.
What am I missing?
MySQLdb for "Python 2.3". ;-)
I imagine that you're using Windows, since MySQLdb can presumably be compiled for "Python 2.3" fairly easily in environments with compilers installed, and it would seem that you're looking for a binary - the hallmark of Windows. ;-)
Note that I refer to "Python 2.3" (and not Python 2.3) since there hasn't been an official release yet, unless it was just sneaked out a couple of hours ago. Until there is, and even for some time afterwards, it will definitely be hard for you to find binary versions of extension modules - it took a long time before Python 2.2 got certain useful extensions in binary form, and I suppose that most extension developers aren't willing to "ride the breakage" to give those at the cutting edge something to play with, especially when many of those people will inevitably compile their own.
My advice: use the latest stable release (Python 2.2.3, I think) or whichever one has MySQLdb available for it. You don't really need enhanced metaclass support, do you? ;-)

Thanks...
No, I don't need enhanced metaclass support (as far as I know). I was only using Python 2.3 because the download page for WebWare said Python 2.3 (at least that's what I thought I read).
I did try to go back and reinstall WebWare for Python 2.2.3 so I could get the MySQLdb to work, but my AppServer wouldn't run in 2.2.3.
Now that I know that's where I should be, I'll concentrate on getting AppServer to run under 2.2.3.
Thanks bunches!
