I have Python v3.9, PyQt5 v5.15, and MySql 8.1 installed on a Windows 10 64-Bit system and like many (many) others have been struggling with the well documented "QMYSQL driver not loaded" problem. Over the past week I have read more than 30 articles on how to fix this and I'm just not getting there. The MySql Python connector works fine, my angst is only with the missing QMYSQL functionality.
Has anyone actually gotten this to work?
Is there a specific combination of versions that will allow these 3 tools to work together on Windows?
My Windows PATH is currently:
PATH=C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\bin;C:\Program Files\nodejs\;C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\bin;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 8.0\bin;C:\Program Files\Go\bin;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts\;c:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Scripts\;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\;C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Shell 8.0\bin\;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Roaming\npm;C:\Users\bobse\AppData\Local\GitHubDesktop\bin;C:\Users\bobse\go\bin;
Part of my problem is that I don't understand exactly what files can't be found and where the tools are looking for them. What should I be looking for and where should I be looking for it?
