Looks like you need to install MySQLdb: ​http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python

Hi, I had this problem too. First have you installed the module ? I installed it, and I got the same error. I just re-installed MySQLdb and it work well.

I remember you how to install it: Go to MySQLdb-version directory and do this (as root): python setup.py build python setup.py install

(fixing wiki syntax from the above:)

Go to MySQLdb-version directory and do this (as root):

python setup.py build 
python setup.py install

So it worksforyou, great ;)
