Well, I had installed MySQL and was running it and will try again but it's annoying as it then blocks port 3306 which is used by the MySQL install in my MAMP stack, which I use quite often. And I guess that python install can't see the MAMP MySQL unless I do something with the $PATH. Thanks, -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
