I downloaded MySQL-python-0.9.1.win32-py2.1.exe. The installer is not able to find my Pythonware distribution. It works on my workstations that use the Activestate distro. (Hint: Pythonware distro claims to make no registration entries). I don't really need a solution to this issue, because I am likely to switch back to the Activestate distro on the machine at issue. I just thought there should be a wider awareness of this problem since Pythonware is not exactly obscure (http://www.pythonware.com/).
Thanks.

I have the same problem. W2k, python installed by zope.
The installer starts, but there is nothing to select in Window "Select python installation to use" and i cannot write anything in the "Installation Directory" input box.

Ditto, Bog standard Zope on WinNT 4 Sp6a
Zope 2.4.3 binary release installed and working.
My SQL 3.23.47 binary installed and working.
As the above message, the installer for MySQL-Python-0.9.1 has no list of Python installs to choose from. :(

I don't make Windows installers; I can't fix it. At worst you should be able to copy the files from your system-wide Python installation into your Zope's lib/python. I don't support Windows and you're lucky to have anything.

IMHO, it would be better to not even have the windows installers if they are not going to be supported. It is better to have nothing than to waste time, yours and mine, on things that don't work, and wont be changed for the better.

They apparently do work for most people. For all I know, PythonWare does not install in the same place as the standard python.org packages, which I assume these installers are set up for. Like I said, you probably need to relocate the installed files, but I have no idea where to move them to or from.

I found a solution
Before installing MySQL-python-0.9.2.win32-py2.1.exe
Just add an entry to you register base :
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.1\InstallPath]
@="C:\\Program Files\\WebSite\\bin"
Replace the default value @= with the path to you python.exe installed with Zope.
Then run the MySQL-python installation and select the entry. It works well ;-)

Ditto, ditto.

No Python instalation listed in the MySQL.
Did anyone solve this issue?
Bob.
s/No Python instalation listed in the MySQL./No Python instalation listed in the MySQL for python instalation dialog box./

Hmmm. Thanks for the enlightenment.
