Just a quick note on getting MySQL-python (aka import MySQLdb
) 1.2.3c1 (the current latest version) to build and install on Mac OS X, because I hit something that I didn't see mentioned in a number of similar posts.
After that u will have the voice in System Preferences. Check if u have the directory mysql on your mac. Check at this path '/usr/local/' if u have the dir. Probably you have a directory called mysql-, rename it in mysql and it will works – torre87 Jul 18 '14 at 7:28. Oct 09, 2012 I have installed Apache, PHP, and MySQL on Mac OS X since Leopard. Each time doing so by hand. Each version of Mac OS X having some minor difference. This post serves as much for my own record as to outline how to install Apache, MySQL, and PHP for a local development environment on Mac OS X Mountain Lion Mavericks. A few months ago, I wrote about how to install MySQL on Windows with IIS.Now I want to show you how to create an AMP web programming stack (Apache, MySQL & PHP) on Mac OS X.As with Windows, you could just go with a ready-made development environment like MAMP but, if you're going to be doing real database and web design work with MySQL, it's best to know how everything works.

What follows are the steps (slightly different) that I needed to get MySQL-python to install.
How To Install MySQL-Python On Mac OS X
- My Setup
Though I am using ActivePython, the issues should be the same for a Python from python.org.
- Download and install MySQL ‘pkg' format install for Mac OS X. For me this was the 'Mac OS X 10.5 x86″ package:
mysql-5.1.34-osx10.5-x86.dmg
The following might work: - Download the latest MySQL-python package.
- Build it.

I didn't see this mentioned in others' post on this. I suspect they may not have hit this because they were building against the system Python (in /usr/bin/python, /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/Current) which may have some tweaks to just handle this.
In any case the problem here is that my Python install (ActivePython 2.6) is a universal build (including i386 and ppc). By default distutils (the library behind
python setup.py build
) tries to build binary Python extensions for all the same architectures. However, the MySQL you just installed is only for x86 so it borks.The fix is to use the ARCHFLAGS environment variable that distutils will pick up on to only build for your architecture:
- Install it.
2.4.2 Installing MySQL on OS X Using Native Packages
Before proceeding with the installation, be sure to stop all running MySQL server instances by using either the MySQL Manager Application (on OS X Server), the preference pane, or mysqladmin shutdown on the command line.
To install MySQL using the package installer:
Download the disk image (
.dmg
) file (the community version is available here) that contains the MySQL package installer. Double-click the file to mount the disk image and see its contents.Figure 2.14 MySQL Package Installer: DMG Contents
Double-click the MySQL installer package. It will be named according to the MySQL version and the OS X version you have chosen. For example, if you have downloaded the package for MySQL 5.6.51 and OS X 10.8, double-click
mysql-5.6.51-osx-
.10.8-x86_64
.pkgYou will be presented with the opening installer dialog. Click to begin installation.
Figure 2.15 MySQL Package Installer: Introduction
If you have downloaded the community version of MySQL, you will be shown a copy of the relevant GNU General Public License. Click and then to continue.
From the Installation Type page you can either click to execute the installation wizard using all defaults, click to alter which components to install (MySQL server, Preference Pane, Launchd Support -- all enabled by default).
Although the option is visible, the installation location cannot be changed.
Figure 2.16 MySQL Package Installer: Installation Type
Figure 2.17 MySQL Package Installer: Customize
Click to begin the installation process.
Once the installation has been completed successfully, you will be shown an Install Succeeded message with a short summary. Now, the wizard and begin using the MySQL server.
Figure 2.18 MySQL Package Installer: Summary
MySQL server is now installed, but it is not loaded (or started) by default. Use either launchctl from the command line, or start MySQL by clicking 'Start' using the MySQL preference pane. For additional information, see Section 2.4.3, 'Installing a MySQL Launch Daemon', and Section 2.4.4, 'Installing and Using the MySQL Preference Pane'. Use the MySQL Preference Pane or launchd to configure MySQL to automatically start at bootup.
When installing using the package installer, the files are installed into a directory within /usr/local
matching the name of the installation version and platform. For example, the installer file mysql-5.6.51-
installs MySQL into osx10.8-x86_64.dmg
/usr/local/mysql-5.6.51-osx10.8-x86_64/
. The following table shows the layout of the installation directory.
