when I initialize airflow using mysql as backend I see below error

File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/sqlalchemy/engine/default.py",

line 453, in connect return self.dbapi.connect(*cargs, **cparams) File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/MySQLdb/init.py", line 80, in Connect from MySQLdb.connections import Connection File "/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/MySQLdb/connections.py", line 36 raise errorclass, errorvalue ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I tried re-installing mysql-python and pymysql still its same 

airflow initdb

removed mysql-python module and forced airflow to use pymysql. changed connection string in airflow.cfg

sql_alchemy_conn = mysql+pymysql://user:password@server/dbname
