I'm running Mac OSX 10.9 Mavericks. I'm trying to run django under python 3. Because I'm running Python 3 I have to get the official connector from the mysql devs here gave it a quick test in the shell and it works.
I ran python manage.py runserver
with "mysql.connector.django"
as the engine having seen an example here and I got this error:
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: 'mysql.connector.django' isn't an available database backend.
Try using 'django.db.backends.XXX', where XXX is one of:
u'mysql', u'oracle', u'postgresql_psycopg2', u'sqlite3'
Error was: No module named mysql.connector.django.base
So I switch back to the default using "django.db.backends.mysql"
as my engine and I get this error:
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading MySQLdb module: No module named MySQLdb
I have no idea how to proceed. I can't install MySQLdb because I'm running my django install under python3 and it's unsupported, but I'm definitely missing something with this connector.
