Getting error on installing a python package regarding mysqlclient

I am currently working on a new project. Trying to install the requirements using pip but getting this error. Using python version 3.6.9

This is the error message I am getting.

Any help would be highly appreciated and thank you in advance to anyone who looks into this.

Solution

  • You need to install a different version of the mysqlclient wheel that is compatible with your version of Python.
