MySQLdb does not support Python 3. You'll want to pick one of the other MySQL drivers.

At the time of writing, the latest release of MySQLdb (1.2.5) doesn’t support Python 3. In order to use MySQLdb under Python 3, you’ll have to install mysqlclient instead.

The error message indicates that there is no module named MySQLdb. It means, Python needs a module to interface with MySQL database and that modules does not seems to be present in the system. All you need to do is, just install MySQL-Python module and the script should work without any problem.

Using Python Pip

pip install MySQL-python

Collecting MySQL-python

 Running setup.py install for MySQL-python
