I'm trying to make django work on snow leopard. So far I've installed mysql 64 bit installed python 2.7 64 bit and installed django 1.2.1. Now I'm trying to install mysql-python-1.2.3; at the beginning I had problems because I hadn't installed the setup tool, having done that when try to install it by executing these command
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
here's what I got
running build
running build_py
creating build/lib.macosx-10.5-fat3-2.7
error: could not create 'build/lib.macosx-10.5-fat3-2.7': Permission denied
Any idea?
Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Mauro

You need to use sudo
sudo setup.py build
sudo setup.py install
You might just want to use sqlite.

At the risk of pointing out the obvious, you do not have permission to write to the build
directory. Check and change the directory permissions (with the chmod
command) or do the setup as an admin user.
