Trying to connect to a Mariadb

[tiago-as]

Hi, I'm trying to connect superset to a remote Mariadb database. I've looked at the SQLAlchemy docs and it seems that the URI needed for this should be just like a mysql one.

I'm using the following URI: mysql+mysqldb://username:pwd@host/database

When I try to "Test Connection" the following lines appear on the server output:

Unexpected error name '_mysql' is not defined
ERROR:superset.views.core:Unexpected error name '_mysql' is not defined

I've followed the instructions in your documentation and installed the dependencies for mysql: https://superset.incubator.apache.org/installation.html?#database-dependencies

sudo apt install libmysqlclient-dev
python -m pip install mysqlclient

What am I missing?

Thanks in advance for any help regarding this matter.
