Tag Archives: MYSQL Install error

Error in installing MySQL Python on MAC [Solved]

Error Message:

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

Command “python setup.py egg_info” failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/nh/j05szmpj19368dd9_y6whgy40000gq/T/pip-install-n9Jonx/mysql-python/

I looked up the command to execute an environment variable online:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin

Then another error was reported:

#include “my_config.h”
^~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
error: command ‘cc’ failed with exit status 1

Finally, I used two methods

One is to first execute :

brew install mysql

Be sure to install through brew

Second, download directly:

https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/

After downloading, you can access:

/ usr/local/mysql/bin    In this folder, you can see that there is a file called mysql_Config file

 

Since I did both things at the same time, I can’t judge which is right and which is wrong, or both, and then execute it again:

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/mysql/bin

Latest run: Good install MySQL-Python
