安装MySQLdb模块遭遇"fatal error: my_config.h: No such file or directory"的处理

 

Issue

 

    I encountered an error when I run the python script which need to import the module of "MySQLdb".The error shows like this:

 

[root@docker1 script]# python Xtrabackup.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "backup.py", line 11, in <module>

    import MySQLdb

ImportError: No module named MySQLdb

 

    Then I downloaded and installed the latest version of pip to install MySQLdb module:

 

[root@docker1 pip-18.0]# python setup.py install

...

[root@docker1 pip-18.0]# pip --version

pip 18.0 from /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip-18.0-py2.7.egg/pip (python 2.7)

 

    But it still doesn't work.it showed "fatal error: my_config.h: No such file or directory":

 

[root@docker1 script]# easy_install pip

    I even download the MySQL-python package without pip tool to install MySQLdb module,but it turned out to be the same error like using pip.

 #include "my_config.h"

                       ^

compilation terminated.

error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

 

    After that,I search for a workaround in google,someone says that I need't to install mysql-devel package first:

 

[root@docker1 MySQL-python-1.2.5]# yum install mysql-devel

...

Error: mariadb101u-common conflicts with 1:mariadb-libs-5.5.60-1.el7_5.x86_64

Error: mariadb101u-config conflicts with 1:mariadb-libs-5.5.60-1.el7_5.x86_64

Error: mariadb101u-libs conflicts with 1:mariadb-libs-5.5.60-1.el7_5.x86_64

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

 

    There were some confilcts with package mariadb-llibs when installing mysql-devel package.Then I have to erase it first:

 

[root@docker1 MySQL-python-1.2.5]# rpm -e mariadb-libs

error: Failed dependencies:

[root@docker1 MySQL-python-1.2.5]# rpm -e --nodeps mariadb-libs

warning: /etc/my.cnf saved as /etc/my.cnf.rpmsave

 

    After I've erased the package of mariadb-lib,the my.cnf will be saved as my.cnf.rpmnew and my.cnf.rpmsave.The default my.cnf was missing.

 

[root@docker1 etc]# ll|grep my

-rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 2540 Sep 17 10:05 my3306.cnf

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 570 Aug 16 22:00 my.cnf.rpmnew

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 83 Sep 12 13:34 my.cnf.rpmsave

[root@docker1 etc]# cat my.cnf

cat: my.cnf: No such file or directory

 

    And then the afterward installation was extremly successful.

 

[root@docker1 MySQL-python-1.2.5]# yum install mysql-devel

...
