SSL routines:ssl_choose_client_version:unsupported protocol (no replies)

I have mysql-connector-python==8.0.29 installed on a windows desktop machine (python 3.7) connecting to an mysql server (mySQL server 5.6.10 on an EC2 instance) and connection pools are created and used just fine.

I then started to test the use of connection pools, on the target system, where the script that creates them runs (is the same as the windows machine above) but run on another AWS EC2 instance (Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS (GNU/Linux 5.11.0-1022-aws x86_64)) and connects to the same mySQL server as above.

The AWS instance running the script is using mysql-connector-python==8.0.29 installed, however is running Python 3.8 not 3.7 (as with the windows machine). However I don't think the python version is causing the issue.

I get the following issue, which is potentially nothing to-do with mySQL and everything todo with SSL!

However I wondered if anyone had any recommendations/thoughts/wisdom?
