[Python] Python MySQL Connector script in VS Code runs but shows no output in terminal

I’m trying to run this Python script in VS Code:

import mysql.connector

try:
# Try to connect
conn = mysql.connector.connect(
host="localhost",
user="root",
password="1234",
database="lmsdb1"
)
print("✅ Connection successfully created!")

except mysql.connector.Error as err:
print(f"❌ Connection failed: {err}")

finally:
# Close connection if it was established
try:
if conn.is_connected():
conn.close()
print("✅ Connection closed.")
except:
pass


But no output appears in the terminal (no print statements at all).

My setup:

• 
  Windows 11
  
  
• 
  Python 3.13
  
  
• 
  VS Code latest version
  
  
• 
  Running with “Run Python File” button
  

Tried:

1. 
   Running in terminal with python DBCon.py
   
   
2. 
   Restarted VS Code
   
   
3. 
   Reinstalled Python extension
   

Still no output. Is this a VS Code config issue or something in my code?

Output I'm expecting is:

Connecting successfully created


But instead I'm getting no output
