SSL connection error when using mysqyl-python connector

I've set up a running instance of mysql (and can log in as root or other users successfully via the command line), but when attempting to connect using:

from mysql import connector 
conn = connector.connect(user='root', password='...', host='127.0.0.1')

I get the error:

2026 (HY000): SSL connection error: SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh failed

I'm quite a newbie to mysql, so sorry if this is an obvious issue, but any help will be appreciated.

If it helps, here is the mysql status when I run it from the command line:

Have you run the mysql_ssl_rsa_setup command? As per the documentation:

This program creates the SSL certificate and key files and RSA key-pair files required to support secure connections using SSL and secure password exchange using RSA over unencrypted connections
