How To Get Python 32 bit?
#1
I just managed to get mysql downloaded and half installed and then I ran into a hitch - it says Python 32 bit is not installed.

I went looking for it and all I could fine was python 3.9 x86 amd64 - no mention of a 32 bit version.

That happened when I tried to install the python connector.

windows installer x86-64 is the 64 bit version, just windows installer x-86 is 32-bit.
But it's strange mysql complaining about python. Do you mean mysql-connector-python? Note there you can choose between 64-bit and 32-bit versions of connector. Just download the one that match your python installation. In both cases I would go for 64-bit unless you have a reason not to.

There is no 32 bit version if python 3.9.

Is the version of mysql that you're using old?
I can't imagine having a new version that requires 32 bit python.
even if there is one, there must also be a 64 bit version.

Quote:This is the first version of Python to default to the 64-bit installer on Windows

It means that 64-bit is the default (i.e. when you click on Python 3.9.0 in the dropdown in the menu/Downloads on the site), but there is alternative (i.e. 32-bit)
