Pi MySql

next mysql

sudo apt-get install mysql-server --fix-missing  

set password ****** same as for others

sudo apt-get install mysql-client php5-mysql

sudo apt-get install mysql-workbench

mySql workbench now on menu

enable remote access

If your issue is not able to remotely connect with MySQL on Raspberry Pi, then try below steps. I had the same issue and got it resolved by performing below commands.

sudo leafpad /etc/mysql/my.cnf

# bind-address = 127.0.0.1 // comment this line out
 #add this line just below above line 
bind-address = 0.0.0.0         
//restart mysql
sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart 

later might want to look at https://serverfault.com/questions/139323/mysql-bind-to-more-than-one-ip-address

make non root user

This can be done in the workbench how do we allow them remote access and access to our db and table?

misc

Restarting The MySQL service

sudo service mysql restart

for python

and that did it the pip now worked then

pip install pymysql
