Question

I have two files. The first one has the connection and the getting of data. I import mysql.connector. This file is called tasksSql.py

def get_users():
    im         


        

Answer 1

In my case, after the recent (Mac OS High Sierra) upgrade and the subsequent brew upgrade, I started to see the above error. I followed the above instructions but still got the same error message. Then I realised that I had to use python2 which points to the brew installed python rather than the os x installed one.

Answer 2

In my case i already installed the package

pip install mysql-connector
pip install mysql-connector-python

It giving me the same error so, i uninstall the both package by using

pip uninstall mysql-connector
pip uninstall mysql-connector-python

and then again install the second package only

pip install mysql-connector-python

This solution worked for me.

Answer 3

use the command below

python -m pip install mysql-connector 

Answer 4

This worked in ubuntu 16.04 for python 2.7:

sudo pip install mysql-connector

Answer 5

Depending on your python version and how you installed it, it is possible that mysql connector isn't installed, you can install it with pip

To install mysql connector:

pip install mysql-connector-python

Answer 6

I was facing the similar issue. My env details - Python 2.7.11 pip 9.0.1 CentOS release 5.11 (Final)

Error on python interpreter -

>>> import mysql.connector
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named mysql.connector
>>>

Use pip to search the available module -

 $ pip search mysql-connector | grep --color mysql-connector-python



mysql-connector-python-rf (2.2.2)        - MySQL driver written in Python
mysql-connector-python (2.0.4)           - MySQL driver written in Python

Install the mysql-connector-python-rf -

$ pip install mysql-connector-python-rf

Verify
