Mysql not connecting with Django 1.11.7 using python 3.6

Question

I am using python 3.6 and install django 1.11.7. Its working fine with Oracle and Sqlite3. But not working with mysql.

To connect with mysql tried to install package Mysql-python but it showing error:

***Collecting MySQL-python Using cached MySQL-python-1.2.5.zip Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info: Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/tmp/pycharm-packaging168/MySQL-python/setup.py", line 13, in from setup_posix import get_config File "/tmp/pycharm-packaging168/MySQL-python/setup_posix.py", line 2, in from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ConfigParser'

----------------------------------------***

I guessed that i should download ConfigParser. But configparser itself showing error:

Collecting configparse No matching distribution found for configparse equirement configparse (from versions: )

Now i am stuck. Please Help

mysql-python is not supported for python 3.x, Install mysqlclient using the following command:

pip install mysqlclient

If you are connecting to a proxy in a corporate environment, then use the following command:

pip install mysqlclient --proxy=proxy:8080

Comment If you need help on using pip.
