I was not able to get the scheduler to work with Postgres so I tried using 
SQLite and it seems to work!  

So moving forward I'll try using two databases: SQLite for the scheduler 
and MySQL for everything else.

As a side note, I'm not quite sure why Postgres did not work. I tried 
clearing out the tables and then have the scheduler recreate everything but 
I was still getting the same error. Poking around the forums, it seems a 
possible solution is updating the postgres drivers however my hands are a 
bit tied since I'm using PythonAnywhere.
