Error Description
When installing mysqlclient with pip3, an error occurs:  _mysql.c:32:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory

pip3 install mysqlclient==1.3.12

Error content

  _mysql.c:32:20: fatal error: Python.h: No such file or directory
     #include "Python.h"
                        ^
    compilation terminated.
    error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

 

Solution:

At first, I saw command 'GCC' failed and thought it was the lack of GCC compilation package, so I installed GCC related tools using Yum or up2date

yum install gcc gcc-c++ kernel-devel

After the installation is completed, an error is still reported, so search:_ Mysql. C: 32:20: fatal error: Python. H: no such file or directory. It is found that python3 devel is missing

CentOS system

Python 2 version execution: sudo Yum install Python devel

Python 3 version execution: sudo Yum install Python 3 devel

Ubuntu, Debian system

Python 2 version execution: sudo apt get install Python dev

Python 3 version execution: sudo apt get install Python 3 dev

After installing the python 3-devel dependency, re-execute it to solve the problem
