python - django.db.utils.OperationalError: (2026, 'SSL connection error: SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh failed')

Question

I'm new to python and django. When I run python manage.py runserver I get this error:

django.db.utils.OperationalError: (2026, 'SSL connection error: SSL_CTX_set_tmp_dh failed')'
mysql Server version: 8.0.13 MySQL Community Server - GPL.

I can't find this error on the web.

I ran into the same error when I tried to connect to MySQL to Python (in Anaconda).

This feed is particularly helpful for various case scenarios leading to the same error. For me, installing openSSL version 1.0.2r in Anaconda, itself, fixed the issue:

$ conda install openssl=1.0.2r
