No module named MySQLdb even if MySQL-python installed?

You need to force pip
to use the default localization settings. Instead of:
pip install mysql-python
do:
LC_ALL=C pip install mysql-python
If you run into an error: Python.h: No such file or directory
, then you'll need to install an additional library:
yum install python-devel

pip install mysql-python
I get this:Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/user1/project/venv/bin/pip", line 11, in <module> sys.exit(main()) File "/home/user1/project/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/__init__.py", line 185, in main return command.main(cmd_args) File "/home/user1/project/venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 161, in main text = '\n'.join(complete_log) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 65: ordinal not in range(128)

ComputerFellow almost 10 yearsThis worked! I had to
yum install mysql-devel
too, along with the above steps.
