RE: Django-Mysql

I had no problem configuring it under CentOs, have not tried Windows (yet) but here's my settings file

DATABASES = {
'default': {
'ENGINE': 'django.db.backends.mysql',
'NAME': 'mds30',
'USER': '', # Not used
'PASSWORD': '', # Not used
'HOST': '', # Set to empty string for localhost. Not used with sqlite3.
'PORT': '', # Set to empty string for default. Not used with sqlite3.
}
}

I did create the database manually; no big deal.

Do you absolutely need to use MySQL? I've found for development that
sqlite is the most hassle-free. I use OS X for development at home and
it is the easiest option. The only drawback is that if you have
multiple clients accessing the DB you can get locking issues. If it's
just you, then you're sorted.

I once installed Django with MySQL on Windows and know I had to mess
around a fair bit to get it to work, but that was quite a while ago.

Good luck, Euan
