[Django]-Using Django with the Drizzle database?

2👍

To use the Django MySQL backend, you have to install the MySQLdb driver. When I install MySQLdb on a machine that has Drizzle installed (but not MySQL), I get this error: EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found. I believe this is the step where MySQLdb is looking for compiler options to build the client. We probably need a fork of the Django MySQL backend that uses a Python wrapper around libdrizzle.

MySQLdb is playing just fine with Drizzle. We use it to work with SQLAlchemy.
I can’t speak to the issues you encountered, but I also tend to have both MySQL and Drizzle on my machines. Things built ok for me, but I’d be happy to help resolve any issues anyone else is having
