Python - Mysqldb install Error [ ERROR: Command errored out with exit status 1:]

I was able to install Mysqldb with the pip install mysql-python command before(in Pycharm), but after installing Visual Code yesterday, it now gives an error. I did everything. I installed Visual Studio Build Tools, deleted and installed Python and Anaconda, but it still won't install. What should I do?

Is it possible that your python version changed from 2.7 to some 3.x version? See the package documentation here, it reads:
MySQL-3.23 through 5.5 and Python-2.4 through 2.7 are currently
supported. Python-3.0 will be supported in a future release. PyPy is
supported.
If you are now on 3.x try pip install mysqlclient.

I already tried several way
pip install opencv-contrib-python (can install no work)
pip install mysqlclient==1.3.12 (show same error)
I install the mycsqlclient from Wheel Link (show this error mysqlclient-1.4.2-cp38-cp38m-win_amd64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.)
My python version is: 3.7.3
(I come from desktop environment and while I read the Django, its say "Ridiculously fast" but now for MySQL connection problem took 4 days already).

You have downloaded the wrong wheel. The error message says you tried to install mysqlclient-1.4.2-cp38-cp38m-win_amd64.whl, which is for Python 3.8.
Since you are using Python 3.7, you should use either mysqlclient‑1.4.2‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl or mysqlclient‑1.4.2‑cp37‑cp37m‑win_amd64.whl depending on whether you have installed 32-bit or 64-bit Python.

It seems like your Build Tools cannot handle some .h files. You can use unofficial precompiled package database to get already compiled mysqlclient.
After downloading it run
pip install name-of-whl-file.whl
If the python+win version of whl file fails to install, try using another version. Always works for me if Build Tools fail.

You can use pymysql
1.Install pymysql
pip install pymysql
Modify your init.py file
import pymysql
pymysql.install_as_MySQLdb()
You can start your project

I got the same error when I try to install mysqlclient in windows. after much time spent in this error. I found a result in the result install the latest visual studio and visual studio build tools. if programmer and only work on coding then transfer windows to ubuntu.i transfer on Ubuntu and enjoy coding

try this:
pip install mysqlclient-1.4.4-cp38-cp38-win_amd64.whl
if it did'nt work, then use the 32bit version
pip install mysqlclient-1.4.4-cp38-cp38-win32.whl

The best way to install mysql-client is to go to https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mysqlclient and you will find many mysql-client wheels.
Download the first one #do not change the name of the file,,
open command prompt,
use cd to go to the directory where your wheel has been installed,
then use pip install (name of file) #use .whl as well
if it doesn't work, download the second one and repeat the process, if that doesn't work as well, keep on downloading until I guarantee you that at least one of them would be installed in your computer

MYSQLdb with Python 3.6

I'm having a very hard time installing MYSQLdb under Python 3.6. I've been fighting with this for about a day now and was hoping someone had a fix. Note I am running Windows 10, MY SQL Workbench 6.3, PyCharm 2016.3.2, and Python 3.6 as already mentioned. To begin with, when trying to execute code in PyCharm which includes an import of MYSQLdb, I'd get an error saying no module found. So, I of course tried to pip install basically every binary possible. For most, I'd get the following:

So, I even then tried installing the unofficial binary for 3.6 available at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#numpy
This installed fine, but still no luck when executing in PyCharm.
Next, I went into preferences=>project interpreter in PyCharm and tried to install MYSQLdb directly from there. With that, I get this other error:
Collecting MySQLdb
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement MySQLdb (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for MySQLdb
From my research this seems to happen a lot when using new releases of Python. Does anyone know of a workaround or when 3.6 will be supported?

try to use sqlalchemy that is fully suported for many ODBC driver. Insted of using mysqldb, mysqlconnector is better in python3.x. I migrated a project from sqlite to mysql server and work fine in python3.6
sqlalchemy offer a solution for connecting with another ODBC.

I had this same issue.
I followed the advice of another answer and got to SQLAlchemy using the pip below:
pip install SQLAlchemy
I have been unable to play with it yet, but it did install without error, so here is hoping!

I had this issue before and I found out that when using python 3.6 you just need to install mysqlclient:
1 - create a folder and than a virtualenv (virtualenv myvenv --python python3)
2 - Install the django version you want (pip install django==1.9.3)
3- Install mysqlclient (pip install mysqlclient)
If you go inside myvenv folder/lib/python3.6/site-packages you will see that MySQLdb module will be there.

MySQL-python module cannot be installed with Pip in windows

I tried to install MySQL-python module but i got the following error:
Sorry for the long code but i really hv no idea what to make sense of it.
I run pip install python, pip install Django, etc. started a project andd created app... now i wanted to conenct to mysql database.
