MySQL support for Python 3
Sorry to hear you had trouble with mysqldb.  I'm not familiar with the Oracle driver, but there is a python-3 compatible pure python driver which will work automatically with peewee:

The MySQLdb project does not yet support python 3, and in fact peewee just got py3k support a month or two ago.  I will add a note to the mysql section of the docs indicating this.  To fix your error, uninstall the mysqldb package and try pymysql.  Good luck!
 Ok, i tested it with pymysql, but get also an error.

i have reported it to the developer, but don't get a reaction.
in his blog he announced, that he will not maintain PyMySQL further.

i tested SQLAlchemy with the MySQL Connector and it works.
their SQL Expression Language is nice to write and i don't see the advantage of an orm in my small project.

so im using that now and next time i test it on my server before programming 2 nights and it don't work.
maybe you can support MySQL Connector if you have the time, but i don't need it anymore.
 PyMySQL is under active development again and it supports Python 3:

I'm using it along with peewee and had no problems so far.
 @lecram great to hear and thanks for fixing that bug.

the last release of MySQLdb is from 02.11.2012 (MySQLdb-1.2.4 release candidate 1) and it doesn't support python 3.

maybe you or someone else have the time to let peewee support another MySQL Driver?

This one supports Python 3 already and is developed by Oracle:
https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysql-connector-python

its very bad for me. i coded the whole night and now if i want to deploy my great app i get lots of errors.
you say that peewee supports python3 and mysql. too bad not at the same time.
so i will switch to sqlalchemy with mysql-connector driver.

or is there a quick solution to get it work for me?

```

    mysql.connect()
