I’ve just spent the last 2 hours or so installing ZMySQLDA on a Plone 2.5.3 site. It was considerably more painful than I thought, as I never used to have troubles with this product before.<\/p>\n
The problem? PIL is required to be installed for Plone, and its ImageFile package conflicts with a similarly named package that is part of Zope (App.ImageFile)<\/p>\n
\u00c2\u00a0This is fixed in the DA.py file of ZMySQLDA by explicitly importing the App.ImageFile package, not the PIL version.<\/p>\n
\u00c2\u00a0After having the ZMySQLDA product finally appear in the Control Panel, it still wasn’t showing up on the drop down “add” menu. I am not sure what I did to fix this, but for a while only a single ZEO client had the menu option visible. Although I had rebooted\/restarted the ZEO client\/server multuple times and multiple ways (through the control panel and using the restartcluster.sh script) I think I still had the problem.<\/p>\n
In anycase, it now works and I have both ZEO clients showing “Add Z MySQL Database Connection.”<\/p>\n
I had planned on getting SQLPASPlugin setup, but it is already 1227, and I need to go to bed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
