When I start my server in Django and try to connect the MySql with it. This error appears :/ how to resolve it

raise ImproperlyConfigured('mysqlclient 1.3.13 or newer is required; you have %s.' % Database.__version__)
django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: mysqlclient 1.3.13 or newer is required; you have 0.9.3.

My python version is 3.7.3 and Django version is 2.2.1. Please guide me. I have seen videos on YouTube but still no help.

Thanks in Advance

Try this via terminal:

pip install --upgrade mysqlclient

Seems you need upgrade mysqlclient lib that used with Django in this case.

You can check lib versions using pip too.

pip freeze | grep mysqlclient
