I can't install Mysql Connector, it gives an error "ImportError: No module named 'mysql'", how to fix it?

Question

MySQL

I downloaded the MySQL Connector msi file from the off site and ran it - everything seemed to be fine. After I tried to execute the following command in python: it
import mysql.connector
gives an error I can’t understand what’s wrong, I’m just starting to code. PS: MySQL 5.7.9, installed as Chukchi through unpacking the archive, everything seems to be working fine.
ImportError: No module named 'mysql'

Answer 1

For MySQL on Windows, use PyMySQL . It is easily installed via pip:
pip install mysqlclient

Answer 2

For MySqlDb to work, a MySQL client must be installed on the machine, because in the end the work goes through it. You don't have it, that's why you're in trouble. The MySQL client can be found on the MySQL website.
