Importing MySQLdb module causes malformed header error.. pls help!!!

Wed Nov 5 11:59:11 EST 2003

Looking at your code I see some weird things...
Is this code complete or a cut and paste version?

1) missing the """ at the end of:
def printContent():
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
    print
   print """
 <html xmlns = "http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"
    lang="en">
    <head><title>Registration results</title></head>

 """????

Also: in your person info: what is it what you want to do in < form[ "firstname" ].value >
form[ "firstname" ] already gives you the value.

What IDE are you using? You should already get error messages on a higher level.

Hello, im having this error while using Apache and the MySQLdb module.
[error] [client 127.0.0.1] malformed header from script. Bad
 header=*** You don't have the (right): c:/program files/apache
 group/apache/cgi-bin/fig28_18.py

 I have connected all databases already. If I remove the import MySQL
 statement, theres no problem. But i need to use the database. . what
 could possibly be wrong???

 pls help.. I have the MySQLdb installed in my Python directory
 already..

 import cgi
 import MySQLdb

 def printContent():
    print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
    print
   print """

 def printReply():
    from convert import genPrime, genPrimeE
    p1 = genPrime()
    q1 = genPrime()   
    e1 = genPrimeE()
    N1 = p1 * q1
    M1 = (p1-1)*(q1-1)
    print 'e1 %d, m1 %d' %(e1,M1)

    while(e1 % M1 == 0):
       e1 = genPrimeE()

    connection = MySQLdb.connect( db = "try" )

    cursor = connection.cursor()
    cursor.execute("insert into trials (p,q,n,m) values
 ('p1','q1','n1','m1');")
    authorList = cursor.fetchall()
    cursor.close()                  # close cursor
