Problem: When you are trying to connect django with mysql things break for no reason, like the mysql client fails to install through "pip install mysqlclient"
Solution: on the django side
- first you need to deactivate from the python environment: to do that just type "deactivate"
- then u should be on # or $ command line, then you need to install this package libmysqlclient-dev
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev -y

After doing this you need to add new mysql user on the phpmyadmin or the mysql admin area like this
then simply type this on the python environment.
