module 'ssl' has no attribute 'wrap_socket'

[Mats Utterheim]

pyVmomi is not working with python 3.12 that ships with 24.04.

There is a commit in the official GIT repo to fix this. https://github.com/vmware/pyvmomi/commit/44d7b9f0c201a92018bac8324542c0adf96aa148

Here is an example of the errors you get when using it:
An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: AttributeError: module 'ssl' has no attribute 'wrap_socket'

The issue also affects the package python3-mysql.connector:

  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/mysql/connector/__init__.py", line 173, in connect
    return MySQLConnection(*args, **kwargs)

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Version 8.0 of python3-mysql.connector supports python versions 3.11, 3.10, 3.9, 3.8, 3.7, (3.6 before 8.0.29), (2.7 and 3.5 before 8.0.24), but NOT version 3.12 which is what ships with noble.

[Thomas Dreibholz (dreibh)]

Yes, version 8.0.15 (current version in Ubuntu 24.04) is too old.

The python3-mysql.connector package needs an upgrade to version 8.4, which supports Python 3.12 (-> https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-python/en/connector-python-versions.html).

@MatsUtterheim you seem to have forgotten to write steps to reproduce, please add it to the post: to reproduce just execute:

    python3 -c 'from pyVim import connect'

…on ubuntu 24.04

[Mats Utterheim (mats-utterheim)]

Thank you. Updated the post with steps to reproduce
