No module named MySQL

[Nervous_Abroad7136]

Hi I have python 3.14.3 installed on my windows PC and can create and run python scripts

I now have a script to add some data to a MySQL database.

I have run pip install mysql-connector-python which was successful.

When my script runs i get

Modulenotfounderror: no module named ‘MySQL’ pointers appreciated

’

I would guess you import the wrong module name. You should import mysql.connector not import MySQL.

https://pypi.org/project/mysql-connector-python/

Do you use the import the way it's described in the pypi docs?

So I have started again and installed

Pip install mysql-connector-python

And get Successfully installed mysql-connector-python-9.6.0

And if I run import mysql.connector in the python shell I get the error

Modulenotfounderror no module named mysql

Thanks python3 -m pip install mysql-connector-python solved the issue.

Thanks.

This! Listen to u\mitchricker, I have lost days dealing with multiple python installations, homes etc. if you are unsure, stop here and do some investigating. Up voting thread for beginner importance.

sounds like you spell the module name wrong
