What is the Python egg cache (PYTHON_EGG_CACHE)?

Question

I\'ve just upgraded from Python 2.6.1 to 2.6.4 on my development machine and upon starting a python script was presented with the following message:

C

Answer 1

I got this error in Django when running the below command the first time.

python manage.py sql myproject

I got it to work like this:

1. In Explorer, view the folder that the error says egg cache directory is set to
2. Delete (or rename) the file mysql_python-1.2.5-py2.7-win32.egg-tmp
3. That's it. The command now works and creates a new file in there. (Haven't tested if I need to do this every time.)
