Hi I have just started learning sql language in MySql and have completed basic level of the language. Now I want to access mysql databases from python. I got to know that we need to install MYSQL_Connector for Python to achieve this goal. But, When i tried to install python-connector for mysql it gives an error that python version not found/

I tried to install it but it failed even though i have python 3.11.0 installed on my pc. I tried to Reinstall both python and mYsql but it Doesn't worked. Please help me with this problem

With the error that you've described, it seems that you're using the Windows MSI installer. But there's an issue in the Connector/Python 8.0.31 installer for Python 3.11, that will be fixed in the upcoming release, see https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=108911

Meanwhile, the solution is performing the installation using the wheel package, actually it's the recommended way of installing Connector/Python. As described by Oscar in the bug report above, you can run:

Console (CMD or PowerShell)
--------------------------------
 > pip install mysql-connector-python
or
 > python -m pip install mysql-connector-python
