Unable to setup mysql with Django on Mac

I installed the recent version of MySQL for my mac (macOS 12(ARM, 64-bit), DMG Archive) and created a database called storefront. I'm working in a pipenv virtual environment and install mysqlclient. I've also updated my DATABASES settings to point to my new database in my settings.py file.
DB Settings. But whenever I try to run the server I get an error. NameError: name '_mysql' is not defined Also at the top, (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64e') I thought by installing the ARM version I wouldn't deal with this error. I wonder if it's pointing to the wrong file within my env despite adding the PATH to my .zshrc info. Is there a special way to point to the correct mysql or am I setting things up incorrectly? Here's my error message "

Error tell you, you have mysql macOs build for x86_64, but you should set up build for 'arm64e'.
here you can find both version for macOs:

For me it was easier to install

So I've decided to learn Django, which will be challenging if I cannot get it working.

The second line of code, is where I run into problems.

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'sqlparse'
I know nothing of Django, I'm excited to learn. I've looked all over the net and SO for a solution to this problem to no avail. Can anyone get me up and running?

Apparently a python package is missing. You can install it like this:
pip install sqlparse

You're on Linux so install 'sqlparse' by typing:
pip3 install sqlparse. Also you should call python with python3, so that it's not confused with python2.

from tagging/models.py: ImportError: cannot import name 'generic'

While running server import error is generated. Here I even don't use this generic types anywhere in my file.
Then how can this error is generated???

ImportError: cannot import name 'generic'

Your tagging library does not support Django 2.0. If you check Django's git repo, you will see that there is no more generic module in Django.contrib.contenttypes. It was removed in Django 1.9. Downgrade to Django 1.8 for your library to work or, which I would recommend, use a different tagging library, preferably one that is well enough maintained to support at least Django 1.11.

I had solved the error.
In settings.py file, there is INSTALLED_APPS. I removed 'tagging'
from that which solves all my errors.
Hope this helps.

I have the same issue and I found the reason is django-mssql support Django 1.8 but you are using Django 1.11. Please downgrade your Django version or wait until the latest version will be supported.

Trouble with psycopg2 setting up django

I'm trying to set up a Django app using a postgresql server (to eventually use with GeoDjango for GIS). I'm on a mac running OSX 10.11 and am running python 3.5 in a virtualenv. I've gone through all the installtion of postgresql, pyscopg2 etc and am trying to run
python manage.py migrate

I've found a couple of stackoverflow threads on this error but none of the solutions seem to help at all.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
