Can't install mysql-python (newer versions) in Windows

I have mysql-python v1.2.4 installed just fine on my machine (Windows 8). I am using Python 2.7. I always got this below error every time I try to upgrade to v1.2.5. (still happens as of v1.3.7)

I've tried (and none work):

  1. Installing VS2010
  2. Changing Python Path
  3. Using Wheel module (I got Failed building wheel for MySQL-python)
  4. Installing Python MySQL connector. For both Python and C.
  5. Installing mysqlclient
  6. Installing using Exe installer from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysql-python/1.2.5

Do I miss something? Thanks.

I solved it myself.

I use the wheel installer from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#mysql-python.

There are two wheel packages there. The amd64 one refuses to install on my platform (Windows) but the other one works just fine. I mean the file with this name:

MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win32.whl

Then install it by running this below command in the same folder with the wheel package.

pip install MySQL_python-1.2.5-cp27-none-win32.whl

Python 3.7

Use mysqlclient‑1.3.13‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl
