Python 3.4.0 with MySQL database

Question

I have installed Python version 3.4.0 and I would like to do a project with MySQL database. I downloaded and tried installing MySQL

Answer 1

There is a Ubuntu solution available either through the Ubuntu Software Center or through the Synaptic Package Manager. This will connect Python version 3.4.0 to MySQL. Download "python3-mysql.connector" version 1.1.6-1.

Note that the connection syntax does not use "MySQLdb". Instead read: Connecting to MySQL Using Connector/Python
