I have mysql-python v1.2.4 installed just fine on my machine (Windows 8). I am using Python 2.7. I always got this below error every time I try to upgrade to v1.2.5.

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Programs\Common\Microsoft\Visual C++ for Python\

I've tried (and none work):

1. Installing VS2010
2. Changing Python Path
3. Using Wheel module (I got Failed building wheel for MySQL-python)
4. Installing Python MySQL connector. For both Python and C.
5. Installing mysqlclient
6. Installing using Exe installer from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysql-python/1.2.5

Do I miss something? Thanks.
