Python便携式安装出现错误

Question

i am starting to use Databases and am using MariaDB, Got that ready, but i want Python integration so i can get started on the program.

I have downloaded PyMySQL-0.7.10.tar.gz from the official python website and have unzipped and have navigated an Command Prompt to there using cd (dir) .

My command is:

"G:\Python\Portable\Portable Python 3.2.5.1\App\python.exe" setup.py install

(Yes, i am on Windows 10 and i am using Portable Python. This is because i learn it at school but also want to be able to work at it at home.)

The error it returns is the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 4, in <module>
    version_tuple = __import__('pymysql').VERSION
  File "C:\Users\Natan Samuel Geldorp.Remytop-PC\Downloads\PyMySQL-0.7.10\pymysql\__init__.py", line 28, in <module>
    from .converters import escape_dict, escape_sequence, escape_string
  File "C:\Users\Natan Samuel Geldorp.Remytop-PC\Downloads\PyMySQL-0.7.10\pymysql\converters.py", line 60
    _escape_table[0] = u'\\0'
                            ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Does anyone know how to fix this?

As requested, as an answer:

You need a newer Python version, in 3.0 to 3.2 the u prefix was forbidden, it was allowed again in version 3.3.

Since Portable Python is no longer being developed (according to their site) you need to pick an alternative. One suggested on the site is WinPython .

(Also the PyMySQL site states that the minimum required Python versions are either >= 2.6 or >= 3.3)
