What can I do to resolve this?
It seems mysql_config is missing on your system or the installer could not find it.
Be sure mysql_config is really installed.
For example on Debian/Ubuntu you must install the package:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
Maybe the mysql_config is not in your path, it will be the case when you compile by yourself
the mysql suite.
Update: For recent versions of debian/ubuntu (as of 2018) it is
sudo apt install default-libmysqlclient-dev
In Mac OS, I simply ran this in terminal to fix:
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
This is the quickest fix I found - it adds it to the path, but I think you're better off adding it permanently (ie add it to /etc/paths) if you plan to install MySQL-python in another environment.
(tested in OSX Mountain Lion)
There maybe various answers for the above issue, below is a aggregated solution.
For Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt update
$ sudo apt install python-dev
$ sudo apt install python-MySQLdb
For CentOS:
$ yum install python-devel mysql-devel
apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev python-dev
Seemed to do the trick.
If you are on MAC
Install this globally
brew install mysql
then export path like this
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin
Than globally or in your venv whatever you like
pip install MySQL-Python
Note: globally for python3 as Mac can have both python2 & 3
pip3 install MySQL-Python
You can use the MySQL Connector/Python
Installation via PyPip
pip install mysql-connector-python
Further information can be found on the MySQL Connector/Python 1.0.5 beta announcement blog.
On Launchpad there's a good example of how to add-, edit- or remove data with the library.
For centos users:
yum install -y mysql-devel python-devel python-setuptools
then
pip install MySQL-python
If this solution doesn't work, and print gcc compile error like:
_mysql.c:29:20: error: Python.h: No such file or directory
You need to specify the path of Python.h, like this:
pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/include/python2.6" MySQL-python
I was trying to install mysql-python on an Amazon EC2 Linux instance and I had to install these :
yum install mysql mysql-devel mysql-common mysql-libs gcc
But then I got this error :
_mysql.c:29:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
So I installed :
yum install python-devel
And that did the trick.
For anyone that is using MariaDB instead of MySQL, the solution is to install the libmariadbclient-dev package and create a symbolic link to the config file with the correct name.
For example this worked for me:
ln -s /usr/bin/mariadb_config /usr/bin/mysql_config
For Linux
this works for me
yum install python-devel mysql-devel
Try sudo apt-get build-dep python-mysqldb
OSX Mavericks
Due to changes within osx mavericks & xcode development tools you may get the error on installation
clang: error: unknown argument: '-mno-fused-madd' [-Wunused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future]
therefore use :
sudo ARCHFLAGS=-Wno-error=unused-command-line-argument-hard-error-in-future pip install mysql-python
for mariadb install libmariadbclient-dev instead of libmysqlclient-dev
sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev
You should install the mysql first:
yum install python-devel mysql-community-devel -y
Then you can install mysqlclient:
pip install mysqlclient
I had the same problem in the Terraform:light container. It is based on Alpine.
There you have to install mariadb-dev with:
apk add mariadb-dev
But that one is not enough because also all the other dependencies are missed:
apk add python2 py2-pip gcc python2-dev musl-dev
sometimes the error depends on the actual cause. we had a case where mysql-python was installed through the python-mysqldb debian package.
a developer who didn't know this, accidentally ran pip uninstall mysql-python and then failed to recover with pip install mysql-python giving the above error.
pip uninstall mysql-python had destroyed the debian package contents, and of course pip install mysql-python failed because the debian package didn't need any dev files.
the correct solution in that case was apt-get install --reinstall python-mysqldb which restored mysql-python to its original state.
Sequence to be followed.
pip install mysqlclient
sudo apt-get install python3-dev libmysqlclient-dev
pip install configparser
sudo cp /usr/lib/python3.6/configparser.py /usr/lib/python3.6/ConfigParser.py
Then try to install the MYSQL-python again. That Worked for me
On Mac:
brew install mysql-client
locate mysql
mdfind mysql | grep bin
then add to path
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Cellar/mysql-client/8.0.23/bin/
or permanently
echo "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Cellar/mysql-client/8.0.23/bin/" >> ~/.zshrc
source ~/.zshrc
Had a similar issue trying to install on OS X Server 10.6.8. Here's what I had to do.
Using:
MySQL-python 1.2.4b4 (source)
MySQL-5.6.19 (binary installer)
Python 2.7 (binary installer)
NOTE: Installing in virtualenv...
Unzip source, open 'distribute_setup.py' and edit DEFAULT_VERSION to use the latest version of distribute tools, like so:
DEFAULT_VERSION = "0.6.49"
Save. Open 'site.cfg' file and uncomment the path to mysql_config so it looks something like (reference your own path to mysql_config):
# The path to mysql_config.
# Only use this if mysql_config is not on your PATH, or you have some weird
# setup that requires it.
mysql_config = /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config
Now clean, build and make will not fail with the 'mysql_config' not found error.
Hope this helps someone else trying to make use of their old xserves :-)
Your sudo path does not know about your local path... go into superuser mode, add the path, and install it from there.
sudo su
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin/
pip install mysql-python
exit
And you're up and running on OSX. Now you have an updated global python.
if you install MySQL-python in your virtual env, you should check the pip version, if the version is older than 9.0.1, please update it
pip install --upgrade pip

my macos version is BigSur(14.4), and mysql version is mysql8. It seems like in the higher version of mysql, they delete the my_config.h files but change to the mysql.h.
so your guys should run the following shell:
cd /usr/local/include/mysql
cp mysql.h my_config.h
after that, run pip install MySQL-python and everything will be ok.
on MacOS Mojave, mysql_config is found at /usr/local/bin/ rather than /usr/local/mysql/bin as pointed above, so no need to add anything to path.
In my case my database is running on container and my flask app is running on another container when i tried updating code app got broke with error

because where my flask app is running doesn't have mysql client properly configured so first i installed mysql server and then install
sudo apt-get install mysql-server-5.7 -y
Then started MySQL
mansoor#LARC-mansur:~/Documents/clients/HR/DevopsSimulator/web$ sudo systemctl start mysql
Then install flask-mysql package and this time it worked
mansoor#LARC-mansur:~/Documents/clients/HR/DevopsSimulator/web$ sudo pip3 install flask-mysqldb
This is different case but posting here because may be someone else in the world facing same issue

The problem isn't with installing Django, is on creating your venv, I don't create on this way so I will pass the way that i create
Step 1 - Install pip
Step 2 - Install virtaulEnv
check here how to install both
after installed, run python3 -m venv venvthis wil create an venv on your current directory. Initiate them with . venv/bin/activateand so run pip install django. That should work
Try pipenv install --python 3.9

&tldr;
On an RPM-based distro, you use RPM packages as much as possible.
Never run pip as root user
You must not use pip as root user (or asking for trouble).
There is a whole infrastructure of Python packages installable through yum and this is what you should use.
You can still use pip to install Python modules, but only in very rare cases when a Python module is not available as a package. In that case you must use pip inside a virtual Python environment. Your case is such.
Make sure you have fixed yum for base, EPEL and set up SCLO repositories, since CentOS 6 is EOL.
Then:
# Ensure EPEL repository
yum -y install epel-release
# fix EPEL repo due to EOL:
curl https://www.getpagespeed.com/files/centos6-epel-eol.repo --output /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo
yum -y install centos-release-scl-rh
# don't forget to fix repository configuration due to EOL:
curl https://www.getpagespeed.com/files/centos6-scl-eol.repo --output /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-SCLo-scl.repo
curl https://www.getpagespeed.com/files/centos6-scl-rh-eol.repo --output /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-SCLo-scl-rh.repo
# install python 3.6 from Software collection packages (installing virtualenv will pick up both the base python and its pip package)
yum -y install rh-python36-python-virtualenv
Now you can create a virtual environment with any packages from pip, but you have to activate the software collection in your shell first, example:
. /opt/rh/rh-python36/enable
cd ${HOME}
# create "myapp" virtual environment
virtualenv myapp
# install desired packages using virtualenv's pip (will install to the virtualenv and not damage your system)
./myapp/bin/pip install cymysql
Do not go over pip version 20 on a Centos 6 system, otherwise wheels with precompiled c libraries will break.
Long story short, do this first:
pip install --upgrade pip==20.1.0
After that you can install cymysql

So,what should I do?!
I had the same problem on a fresh virtualenv and apparently this is a conflict between the version requirements for packaging, pip and pyparsing with the new setuptools. What worked for me was to pin down the old one.
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
Update:
As another answer pointed out, pip has already fixed the bug, so you should try upgrading it instead of using the workaround above.
python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip
UPDATE:
Please see the solution lower in this thread by Pedro Werneck instead of this one. It's the correct way to solve the problem.
Preface: I do not recommend this!
This seems to work, but I have no idea what the consequences could be. This is cargo cult programming at its best! I'm only adding it here in case it can help someone in a bind.
I made changes to the file requirements.py where the error occurred. For #hysg, that would be this file:
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/packaging/requirements.py
On me on OS X, it's here:
/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/packaging/requirements.py
I modified the the offending line by removing the parentheses for the call to MARKER_EXPR, as demonstrated below:
#MARKER_EXPR = originalTextFor(MARKER_EXPR())("marker")
MARKER_EXPR = originalTextFor(MARKER_EXPR)("marker")
And that worked.
Again, please be careful! I don't know what I'm doing and this could potentially cause more harm than good.
this is work well：
python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
This is what worked for me:
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
It downgraded setuptools from 35.0.1 to 33.1.1 and pyparsing 1.5.7 installed!
Use the following command to upgrade pip, which has the bug fixed:
python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip
It worked for me (centos 7, python 2.7).
For more details: GitHub
I applied the fix
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
and it solved the problem for OSX 10.10.5 (Yosemite)
I ran into the same problem on a new virtualenv trying to install. I'm running python 2.7.11 and found the two commands belows solve the versioning problem with setuptools:
This forces a pip upgrade, which has a fix for the bug, but doesn't reinstall setup tools, so I was still running on setuptools version 35.0.1
python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip
This sets setuptools to an older version.
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
After this, I successfully installed my requirements.
None of the other uninstall/reinstall/force answers worked for me, but on OS X 10.10.5 with the system Python 2.7.10, I was able to do:
pip uninstall packaging pip
easy_install pip # this installed pip 1.4.1
pip install --upgrade pip # and this upgraded to the current pip
and I was then able to import pkg_resources without a problem.
Should really learn to stop messing with the system Python…
Actually, I had a problem that OS/system which means root, not sudo, has been the owner of the pip2 package. But after I had executed this command:
sudo apt-get remove python-pip
it worked like a charm.
Noting, of course that I have a debian distribution.
And then I used what Pedro suggested:
sudo pip install setuptools==33.1.1
It worked for me too (centos 7, python 2.7).
python -m pip install --upgrade --force pip
pip install setuptools==33.1.1
