Python 3.10.1
However, please note you don't need to use MySQLdb as your connector- I was very happy with pure-Python MySQL client library pyMySQL: https://pypi.org/project/PyMySQL/#installation https://github.com/PyMySQL/PyMySQL/ So far, I have been happy with its maintenance and compatibility of newer MySQL and MariaDB features (e.g. newer authentication methods). It is MIT-licensed.

Python3 Mysql Connector Issue. Help!!!
My preferred connector is pymysql, which I know supports it https://github.com/PyMySQL/PyMySQL/issues/651 but either use anyone that works for you or disable this feature on MySQL server, as suggested on that ticket.
