Anyone know how to install MySQL Python through HTTPS ? Any help would be appreciated, Thanks !

Answer 1

Looks like python is missing the ssl bindings, I would make sure ssl is installed and reinstall python. If it does not work you can compile python yourself https://askubuntu.com/questions/21547/what-are-the-packages-libraries-i-should-install-before-compiling-python-from-so

Answer 2

您可以从https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/python/获取tar包，并手动安装

Answer 3

最后的解决方案是改为安装mysqlclient，因为自2014年以来就没有更新MySQL Python，请致谢@alasdair
