http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31748278/ how-do-you-install-mysql-connector-python-development-version-through-pip/34027037#34027037 I have a virtualenv in which I am running Django 1.8 with Python 3.4 I am trying to get support for MySQL however I am have trouble getting the different connectors to work. I have all used Mysql-connector-python with Django 1.7 and would like to continue using it. The development version of Mysql-connector-python (2.1.2) seems to has support for Django 1.8 now. How do I install the development version using PIP Install (within my virtualenv)? I have tried running the following command: pip install mysql-connector-python==2.1.2 --allow-external mysql-connector-python But the 2.1.2 Developer version was not available there: CouldNotFind a version that satisfies the requirement MySQL-Connector-Python==2.1.2 (FromVersions: 1.1.4, 1.1.5, 1.1.6, 1.2.2, 1.2.3, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.0.3, 2.04) some insecure and unverifiable files were ignored (use --allow-unverified mysql< Span class= "pun" >-connector-python to allow no matching distribution found for Mysql-connector-python< Span class= "pun" >==2.1. 2 I have tried downloading the file directly from:http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/ Some reason after installation the connector was not available within my virtualenv Help:-) Thank. ‘ EDIT: I had tried but it was not pip install mysql-python supported by Python 3.4 Python MySQL Django share|improve this question edited jul "@ 15:08    &NBSP;&NBSP;&NBSP;&NBSP,         asked Span class= "Relativetime" title= "2015-07-31 14:11:52z" >jul "at 14:11          aivoric        3962515

I agree, the Debian packages appear to being broken for at least Ubuntu 14.04. The Apt-get version and the PIP version do not include the 2.1.x releases. To get it do, I had to grab the source: $ git clone https://github.com/mysql/mysql-connector-python.git$ cd mysql-< Span class= "PLN" >connector-python$ python ./ setup../setup. PY Install ... >>> import. Connector as Msc>>> Msc__version__ ' 2.1.3 ' >>>
