Added better error handling and MySQL 5.6 support for Windows Server:
1. Enhanced error logging in app.py:
- Detailed database error messages with error codes
- Full stack traces logged to console/PM2
- Error details returned in JSON for debugging
2. Created app-pymysql.py:
- Alternative version using PyMySQL instead of mysql-connector-python
- Better compatibility with older MySQL 5.6 servers
- Handles bit field conversion from bytes to boolean
- Pure Python implementation (no C extensions)
3. Added requirements-mysql56.txt:
- PyMySQL 1.1.0 for MySQL 5.6 compatibility
- Use this on Windows servers with old MySQL
For production Windows servers with MySQL 5.6, use:
pip install -r requirements-mysql56.txt
python app-pymysql.py
For debugging 500 errors, check console/PM2 logs for detailed error messages.
