MySQL是常用的开源数据库，Python环境下django框架连接MySQL数据库用的是mysqlclient库，今天在用pip安装mysqlclient库时报错，特记录一下，避免后续继续踩坑。

pip版本：pip 22.1.2

报错信息：

执行pip3 install mysqlclient==2.1.1 报错

避坑：

从报错信息看是找不到mysql_config
通过whereis mysql_config命令查看mysql_config
发现mysql_confg没有
执行yum install mysql-devel 安装mysql-devel
执行whereis mysql_config命令查看mysql_config这时mysql_config有了

mysql_config: /usr/bin/mysql_config /usr/share/man/man1/mysql_config.1.gz

再次执行pip安装命令安装成功！

pip3 install mysqlclient==2.1.1
