  • Thanks for posting your issue and hopefully someone will answer soon.

    This is an automated bump to increase visibility of your question.

  • I would recommend asking on a Python forum or a MySQL forum, not a Microsoft SQL Server forum, but that's just me.

    But because I'm a sucker, I'll try to help anyways.

    First question - have you read the docs on it (https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/), specifically chapter 4 on installation? That page gives pretty good instructions on how to install it...

    The above is all just my opinion on what you should do. 
    As with all advice you find on a random internet forum - you shouldn't blindly follow it.  Always test on a test server to see if there is negative side effects before making changes to live!
    I recommend you NEVER run "random code" you found online on any system you care about UNLESS you understand and can verify the code OR you don't care if the code trashes your system.
