MySQLdb/mysql-python安装时EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

代码:root@vpser:~# cd MySQL-python-1.2.3
root@vpser:~/MySQL-python-1.2.3# python setup.py install 
sh: mysql_config: not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 15, in <module>
    metadata, options = get_config()
  File "/root/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config
    libs = mysql_config("libs_r")
  File "/root/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 24, in mysql_config
    raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (mysql_config.path,))

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

首先查找mysql_config的位置，使用find / -name mysql_config ，比如我的在/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config


修改setup_posix.py文件，在26行：
mysql_config.path = "mysql_config" 修改为：
mysql_config.path = "/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config"

修改完成后保存，再执行
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
python setup.py bdist_rpm

安装完成
