I'm getting this error

ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named MySQLdb
when I try to run this script on my shared server
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys, os
sys.path.insert(0, "/home/<username>/python/django")
sys.path.insert(0, "/home/<username>/python/django/www") # projects directory
os.chdir("/home/<username>/python/django/www/<project>")
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = "<project>.settings"
from django.core.servers.fastcgi import runfastcgi
runfastcgi(method="threaded", daemonize="false")
But, my web host just installed MySQLdb for me a few hours ago. When I run
python from the shell I can import MySQLdb just fine. Why would this script report that it can't find it?
