failed of installing MySLQ

[ahagbes89]

I have not much experiences in Python. I have installed Django  but the installation of the data base (MySQL) fails

It is displayed that windows visual c++ is required. I don't know how to do.

Thank

Hello,

since you aren't experience, start easier and use SQLite. Mostly everyone (even the experienced people) usually use SQLite in development.

Regards,

Antonis

I don't completely agree with Antonis. If you want MySQL in production, you will have to learn how to install it an use it at sometime. 

With that said, you will probably get more help with installing MySQL in a MySQL forum. Check these out - https://forums.mysql.com/. The Newbie forum or the Install and Repo forum might be your best place to start. Then come back here for questions about Django - we can help you with getting Django to work with MySQL once MySQL is installed and working.

Once MySQL is installed, you may want to try a tutorial about how to use it - https://www.tutorialspoint.com/mysql/. Finally, the Django tutorial is very well written and you will learn a lot from it - https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.11/intro/tutorial01/. There are many free Python online tutorials, just google for those and find the one that matches your learning style. 

Finally, I don't think installing MySQL requires visual C++, but I am not an expert.

Personally I'd go with SQLite first. Every additional thing you require someone to learn up-front is another obstacle in their path; they can learn how ot manage MySQL or PostgreSQL later on, but first they need to be able to learn about Django.
