Hello Monika.

If you got an error saying, "bad magic number in...", It is probably that the compiled source was created in a different version of Python where is attempted to run.

Python puts a marker into its pyc files called magic number when it creates them. Then the python interpreter makes sure this number is correct when loading it. This magic number changes between the different versions of Python.

This issue can come from a bad installation (e.g Install new Python version without removing old in the same location) or by moving the installed Modules between different versions of Python. An uninstall and fresh Install of latest versions can solve the issue, if the problem persists, we need more details on how python and connector python where installed, like the versions and installation location.
