    <p>I am, like many others, trying to get MySQLdb for Python to run on Mac Snow Leopard (10.6.x) and I've been able to install the 64-bit MySQL DMG as recommended by various blogs/forum posts, and I've been able to install the setuptools and MySQLDB itself by using the</p> <pre><code>ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py clean ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py build sudo ARCHFLAGS='-arch 86_64' python2.7 setup.py install </code></pre> <p>As you can see from the above I have upgraded to Python 2.7 and everything seems fine; except when I try to import MySQLdb into python shell.</p> <pre><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; import MySQLdb Traceback (most recent call last): File "&lt;stdin&gt;", line 1, in &lt;module&gt; File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in &lt;module&gt; File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 7, in &lt;module&gt; File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/_mysql.py", line 6, in __bootstrap__ ImportError: dlopen(/Users/ad/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so, 2): Library not loaded: /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.16.dylib Referenced from: /Users/ad/.python-eggs/MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-macosx-10.6-universal.egg-tmp/_mysql.so Reason: Incompatible library version: _mysql.so requires version 17.0.0 or later, but libmysqlclient.16.dylib provides version 16.0.0 </code></pre> <p>I did a search and found libmysqlclient.16.dylib but not libmysqlclient.17.dylib</p> <p>What is causing this problem, how do I resolve it, and even though I did a search for libmysqlclient.17.dylib there seems to be nothing about it; does it exist?</p> <p>Thanks</p>

    2. CONo. I gave up. Also my system still uses Python 2.6 and has all the references to it too. I tried forcing it to use Python 2.7 but I do not think MySQLdb works for 2.7.x. In the end I gave up and just used SQLite.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
