Geoffrey's questions

I want to use the community.mysql.mysql_user module. It requires PyMySQL or MySQLdb. I installed PyYySQL with pip3 install pymysql on localhost, but an error message about the missing PyMySQL still appeared. I thought perhaps I should install to a system directory with sudo, but the error still appeared.

The following did not help either, after uninstalling with pip3 again:

• sudo apt install --yes python3-pymysql
• sudo apt install --yes python3-mysqldb

The installation command from the PyMySQL page on PYPI (python3 -m pip install pymysql) gave this output:

Requirement already satisfied: PyMySQL in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (0.9.3)

Localhost is WSL2 Ubuntu 20.04.

FreeSSHd is installed on Windows Server 2003, not on the C: drive but on another drive, D:. When I command-prompt to the D: drive and type in ssh, it tells me ssh is not recognised.

I added myself as a user to FreeSSHd with a hashed password and enabled SSH.

The Windows Firewall service is not running.

I can connect to the server using Remote Desktop Connection. I want to use ssh with Mercurial source code management system.

While I am logged onto the server via Remote Desktop connection, I can also connect to the server via ssh and putty on the client machine.

As soon as I log off from the server via Remote Desktop Connection, and I type in on the client:

ssh <username>@<server>

I get:

ssh: Connect to host <server> port 22: Connection refused

The repository is hosted on my PC. I use Apache with WAMP and TortoiseHG.

I have setup users and passwords and they are able to browse the repository in their browsers after entering their usernames and passwords.

The problem is that, when they try to clone the repository, they get an HTTP404 file note found error.

However, I can clone the repsoitory on my own PC using their credentials.

The problem must lie somehwere with the mercurial setup.

I am trying to do the transfer in Windows Explorer and have full control on both My Sites.

Thanks very much for your help.

I also asked the question on an: MSDN Sharepoint forum
