Want to install mysqlclient using:

pip install Mysqlclient

but it always fails due to missing header files in the vs tools, so I'm trying to install the .whl file, but i have this issue instead:

.whl is not supported wheel on this platform

So the wheel I'm trying to install it using:

pip install D:/mysqlclient-1.4.6-cp38-cp38-win32.whl

but it says:

mysqlclient-1.4.6-cp38-cp38-win32.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

I tried the 64x version also, but nothing. Cheers

What am I missing? Cheers.

Can you give the output of `python -c "import wheel.pep425tags as w; print(w.get_supported())"` and also try `python -m pip install ...` – FlyingTeller Jan 30 '20 at 12:54
Why do you have 32-bit python anyway? – FlyingTeller Jan 30 '20 at 12:55
