[Zope] MySQL-Python problems on Win32

[Bryan Capitano]

I am trying to install the MySQL-Python-0.9.0 package onto my WinXP Prof.
machine with Zope 2.5.1.
Having problems: the MySQL-Python-0.9.0.exe installer stops with:

"Select Python Installation to use:
Select Installation directory:"

Well,... there is nothing to select in this window. And the textbox won't
let me type an installation directory either. This is as far as I can get
with this exe installer. I have to cancel out of it because it won't let me
go to "Next-->".

I've also tried the "platform independent" MySQL-Python-0.9.0.tgz from
sourceforge.
Have tried running the `python setup.py build` and `python setup.py install`
commands from the Windows command line. But I get this error:

....
....build process seems to be going okay....
....
building '_mysql' extension
cl.exe /c /nologo /0x /MD /W3 /GX -Ic:\mysql\include "-IC:\Program
Files\Website\bin\Include" /Tc_mysql.c
/Fobuild\temp.win32-2.1\Release\_mysql.obj
error: command 'cl.exe' failed: No such file or directory


Don't get me wrong: I'm a serious Linux user. But I need to make some
traveling presentations on the merits of Zope and I only have a WinXP laptop
right now for my demonstrations/presentations. No Linux laptop just yet. :(
Any help getting MySQL adapters installed on Windows will be much
appreciated!

Thanks,
Bryan

P.S. I have tried both the .exe and .tgz in versions 0.9.0 as well as 0.9.2.
And I have tried both of these on Zope 2.6.0 on Windows as well. No luck in
any of these combinations.
