I am posting my first question here, so please let me know if I can improve my skills regarding asking a question here.

I am deploying a python application on a linux-server which will receive a JSON payload and write to a mariadb database, I have successfully tested the application on pycharm while connecting it to the same database remotely. It only gives error when I run it on the server, below is the error console:

**export FLASK_APP=testapp.py
$ python3 -m flask run**

    Traceback (most recent call last):

                                                              ^

My SQL connection config mentioned below:

import mysql.connector as database

connection = database.connect(
               user="username",
               password="password",
               host="localhost",
               database="database",
               port="3306"

             )

             cursor = connection.cursor()
             add_user = """INSERT INTO database.tablename
             (time, name,email, admin, id, team, remarks) 
             VALUES (%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,%s)"""
             data_user = (name, email, id, team, remarks)
             cursor.execute(add_user, data_user)
             connection.commit()
             cursor.close()
             connection.close()
             print("Successfully added entry to database")

I have tried disabling SSL for my SQL server, wanted to try to push tls_version via MySQL config in python but there is no valid argument for me to do so.

Any help or insights are most welcome, thank you in advance. This platform is the reason I have learned this far. :)
