Create MySqlPython windows installer for Python26
|
|
created by Gimick on 29th June 2010
|
|
|
|
The FPDB exe needs to build against the MySql-Python project. Unfortunately, for python 2.6 there is no official installer for windows, and none is ever likely to be provided.
|
|
Community builds are available, but to reduce third-party dependencies, we will build our own here.
|
|
|
|
This walkthrough is derived from excellent installation instructions here ... http://www.bcspcsonline.com/wiki/index.php?title=MySQL-5.1.34_Python-2.6_Module_Build_Instructions
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 0 Get a fresh XP installation
|
|
----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
0.1/ Using XPhome 32bit

|
-----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
1.1/ Get the ISO CD from here ... http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/#2008-All
|
|
|
|
1.2/ Run and install Visual C++ only, don't bother with the additional packages offered
|
|
|
|
This package will run 30 days before registration is needed
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 2, setup Mysql Server
|
|
--------------------------
|
|
|
|
2.1/ Install MySQL server runtime ... http://downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.1/mysql-5.1.34-win32.msi
|
|
|
|
Choose Typical, choose configure, choose Standard Configuration, choose all defaults, supply admin username/password.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 3, more installs
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
3.1/ install the following in sequence (accept all default options) there should be no errors !
|
|
|
|
Python 2.6.5 ... http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5.msi
|
|
7zip 914 ... http://sourceforge.net/projects/sevenzip/files/7-Zip/9.14/7z914.exe/download

|
Step 4, grab Mysql server Source
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
4.1/ Download ... http://downloads.mysql.com/archives/mysql-5.1/mysql-noinstall-5.1.34-win32.zip
|
|
4.2/ Unpacking Desktop\mysqlsource (use 7zip)
|
|
4.3/ Copy the following source directories to the MySql installation:
|
|
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\data\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\data" /I/E/F/H
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\Embedded\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\Embedded" /I/E/F/H
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\include\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\include" /I/E/F/H
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\lib\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\lib" /I/E/F/H
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\mysql-test\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\mysql-test" /I/E/F/H
|
|
dos> xcopy Desktop\mysqlsource\mysql-5.1.34-win32\sql-bench\* "c:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.1\sql-bench" /I/E/F/H
|
|
|
|
4.4/ You can delete Destop\mysqlsource, is no longer needed.
|
|
|
|
|

Step 5, grab Mysql-python source
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
5.1/ get download
|
|
MySql for python ... http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/files/mysql-python/1.2.2/MySQL-python-1.2.2.tar.gz/download
|
|
|
|
5.2/ extract MySQL-python-1.2.2 directory to the Desktop using 7zip
|
|
(note: use 7zip, open the gz, then open the tar, then extract the directory found inside there)
|
|
|
|
Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.2 should now exist
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 6, get python build tools
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
6.1/ get Easy Setup installer

Setuptools version 11 ... http://pypi.python.org/packages/2.6/s/setuptools/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg
|
|
|
|
6.3/ Put both of these files into Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.2, overwriting any existing files
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 7, install the build tool
|
|
------------------------------
|
|
|
|
dos> cd Desktop\MySQL-python-1.2.2

|
|
9.1/ dos> c:\python26\python.exe setup.py build
|
|
|
|
* Note: You will probably get a bunch of warnings and maybe a manifest error, these are ok as long as there are no errors in compiling or linking.
|
|
* Note: This will generate the "MySQL-python-1.2.2/build" folder
|
|
|
|
9.2/ dos> c:\python26\python.exe setup.py bdist_wininst
|
|
|
|
|
|
Step 10, done

|
|
10.1/ the \dist directory will contain MySQL-python-1.2.2.win32-py2.6.exe !!!!!
