TypeError: DatabaseWrapper.display_name() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

by

I am getting the following error when running “python manage.py migrate” in cpanel terminal. I am using mysql for database. The library that I am using is mysql-connector-python.

TypeError: DatabaseWrapper.display_name() takes 0 positional arguments but 1 was given

The following are the settings of my settings file:

DATABASES = {
    "default": {
        "ENGINE": "mysql.connector.django",
        "NAME": "my-database-name",
        "HOST": "localhost",
        "PORT": "3306",
        "USER": "my-database-username",
        "PASSWORD": "my-password",
    }
}

  • This error has nothing to do with mysql or your database connection and its configuration. Seems more of an issue in one of the ORM packages

  • You’ve to include the complete error message. A single line doesn’t help.
