Thanks for your help, Charles. Yes - it turned out to be an architecture thing. It looks like Pd forces Python into 32-bits, and so mysql needs to be 32 bit, as well as MySQLdb. Once I reinstalled the server and rebuilt the library all 32-bit, it worked like a charm.
Is there a 64-bit osx version of Pd kicking around, or is it difficult to build? No, wait. I'll look it up first:)

Okay, my situation has been somewhat different, after all. I am running into architecture related problems with libraries. In particular, I was able to diagnose the problem using the file and dyldinfo commands. The library you (probably) need to find is _mysql.so and take a look at what the library does.
file _mysql.so _mysql.so: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures _mysql.so (for architecture i386): Mach-O bundle i386 _mysql.so (for architecture ppc): Mach-O bundle ppc
dyldinfo -arch i386 -export _mysql.so which shows me a full table of exported symbols.
however, dyldinfo -arch x86_64 -export _mysql.so is empty and so is the table printed by: dyldinfo -arch ppc -export _mysql.so
I hope that helps somewhat. Chuck

I am just now debugging a completely different application at work (CellProfiler Analyst), and trying to figure out this same error.
The application is pre-compiled, and the *.pyc files are put into site-packages.zip. It retrieves the correct files from the archive, but then complains about not having the init_mysql function. I also am running a 32-bit application on a 64-bit capable machine.

Hey everybody
It's been a while - I hope everybody's good.
Having a bit of an issue, and hoping somebody can help. I'm trying to use py in pd-extended 0.41.4 to add to a mysql db table using MySQLdb. The python script works fine on its own, but once I get it into py I get the following errors:
py - No namespace available Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Users/dafydd/Documents/pd/Sound Sorter/db_add.py", line 1, in <module> import MySQLdb File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in <module> File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 7, in <module> File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 6, in __bootstrap__ ImportError: dynamic module does not define init function (init_mysql)
I've done some searching and it sounds like this might be an issue with 32bit vs 64 bit builds, but I have no idea where to start. I'm on a macbook pro i7 (64 bit, right?). Would Pd have an effect here? Have I screwed something up?
Sorry to be so vague - using the py/python/mysql combination is pretty new to me.
