Debian Configuration :: PIP Installation Fails For MySQL Connector Python

I got assigned to a project, where the installation is done over ansible. As I'm new in linux, python, django, ansible I wanted to try this out on a empty linux debian.

Code: Select alluname -a

Linux DebianABC 3.16.0-4 amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt20-1+deb8u4 (2016-02-29) x86 64 Gnu/Linux

When I now run my ansible playbook it tries to install mysql and suddenly I get an error:

Code: Select all:stderr: DEPRECATION: --allow-external has been deprecated and will be removed in the future. Due to changes in the repository protocol, it no longer has any effect.

DEPRECATION: --allow-unverified has been deprecated and will be removed in the future. Due to changes in the repository protocol, it no longer has any effect.

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 (from -r /home/abc/abcTest/requirements.pip (line 36)) (from versions: )

No matching distribution found for mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 (from -r /home/abc/abcTest/requirements.pip (line 36))

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

So I checked the target machine and tried to run

pip install -vvv -r requirement.txt mysql-connector-python

As version 1.0.12 is an old version, I was searching and tried the following: [URL] ....

But also if I run the installation by direct download I have the same error message:

Code: Select allabc@DebianABC:/home/abc/abcTest$ pip install -r requirements.pip -vvv mysql-connector-python
Collecting http://cdn.mysql.com//Downloads/Connector-Python/mysql-connector-python-1.0.12.tar.gz (from -r requirements.pip (line 36))
  Starting new HTTP connection (1): cdn.mysql.com
  "GET //Downloads/Connector-Python/mysql-connector-python-1.0.12.tar.gz HTTP/1.1" 200 230923

[Code] ....

I was reading about the version requirements from PEP: [URL] .... but as the version looks ok, this should not be the problem.
