mysqlclient installation error

[Raja Sekar Sampath]

Hi Guys,

While installing mysqlclient using pip, getting this error

VS C++ Build tool was installed in system and updated the setup tools, still getting this issue..

Any solution for this ?

My Environment :

OS : Windows 10

Python : 3.7

Django : 2.2

DB : MariaDB 10.2

[Desh Deepak]

Hi, 

MySQL client is not available for Django 2.2 and newer version.

You can uninstall 2.2 and download older Django version 2.0 for the database connection.

Thanks

I have Django 2.2.x running with mysqlclient successfully

mysql-connector-python==8.0.15
mysqlclient==1.3.13

[Emmanuel Simeon]

Had same issue setting up my current Project,

But my workaround after so much effort was this:

1. Install Visual Build Tools

2. Install the Required  MySQL C++ Connector (Better still download MySQL Setup with Workbench and install not Xampp or Wamp)

3. Uninstall Python and use the Web Installer to Install Python 3 again,

Those are essentially the steps i took to get my working.

the method of James works perfectly. I have been using the same with my Django project.

Hi Emmanuel Simeon,

It would be great if you share the download link to Visual Build Tools and MySQL C++ Connector

 Links to resources I used to help me get MySQL working on Django

Visual Studio Build Tools Installer  - Link

MySQL DB and Connectors Web Installer  - Link

(I downloaded the complete package and installed everything including all the connectors)

And lastly which was like the trick that worked for me:

I uninstalled Python and used the python web installer to get the latest version of python.

PS: Something to be considered what's your system architecture if 32bit(x86) / 64bit(x64)

Choose the software build for your system architecture to be installed.

For instance:

I installed 64bit Python 3.7

same with my MySQL, I installed 64bit 

Because there are dependencies those software look for in certain places.

I truly hope this works for You,

Also when installing mysqlclient I didn't specify a version, I just did "pip install mysqlclient"
