If you have already install Macports
$ sudo port install py26-mysql
Else, Install Macports
url: https://distfiles.macports.org/MacPorts/
download: MacPorts-2.1.2.tar.gz
On terminal
$ tar zxvf MacPorts-2.1.2.tar.gz
$ cd MacPorts-2.1.2
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
/opt/local/bin should be added to my $PATH
$ vim ~/.bashrc
export PATH=$PATH:/opt/local/bin
$ source ~/.bashrc
$ sudo port -v selfupdate
$ sudo port search python | grep mysql
$ sudo port install py26-mysql
Using Macports didnot solve my problem.
So I will use the MySQL-python binaries.
URL: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/
Download: MySQL-python-1.2.4b4.tar.gz
Terminal:
$ tar zxvf MySQL-python-1.2.4b4.tar.gz
$ cd MySQL-python-1.2.4b4
$ vim site.cfg
## Comment this line
#mysql_config = /usr/local/bin/mysql_config
## provide path to mysql_config
mysql_config = /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
$ python setup.py build
$ sudo python setup.py install
Looks good so far. Check if everything works

Rerun the Google App Engine.
I was not able to solve the problem. The ERROR message still stays the same.
