I changed settings.py:

DATABASES = {
    'default': {

        'NAME': 'mydatabase',
        'USER': 'mydatabaseuser',
        'PASSWORD': 'mypassword',
        'HOST': '127.0.0.1',
        'PORT': '5432',
    }
}

1) I run the command:

python manage.py migrate

i get an error: error loading mysqldb module django.core.exception error loading mysqldb

2) I run the command:

 pip install mysql -python

get "failed building wheel for mysql-python microsoft visulal c++ 2010 is required unable to find vcvarsall.bat

If
pip install MySQL-python
is failing, you can try
easy_install MySQL-python.

Also install this: sudo apt-get install python-mysqldb
