2014-04-28 16:28:33 -0500 commented answer Do I need to install MySQL server before installing Askbot?

Evgeny, I want to use it as my internal Q&A site. But I got a lot of error during the installation process, which I add in the main question to show why I have the question at the first place.
2014-04-28 16:15:15 -0500 asked a question Do I need to install MySQL server before installing Askbot?

I am a little confused when reading Askbot installation doc.

It implies that we don't need to install MySQL server on the box, doesn't Askbot need a DB backend?

Thanks,

(Similar questions go to Apache server, and mod_wsgi modules)

What I have done is show below

#sudo python setup.py develop

#askbot-setup

#sudo pip install mysql-python

Here is the error message I got
