I have begun learning to program (in general, and in Python), and I am trying to import a module. I have installed it (using pip install --user requests) and the folder appears in my file explorer. When I try to import requests now inside IDLE, I get a ModuleNotFoundError.
I have tried adding the folder to the PATH environment variable, although I am not sure I understand what this means, but it did not work. What can I do?
If "pip freeze" lists the module, then one option will be to close the idle and type the following at the command prompt/terminal.
python -m idlelib
New IDLE will start and it should be possible to import the module.
That means that the installation you made was not done properly, so when you type in requests to get the module in your script it cannot find it.
Just reinstall it properly with (if the prompt for the python version you want to use is simply python):
python -m pip install requests
EDIT:
Adding to this, based on the comment of #AST :
Indeed, if you get Requirement already satisfied when using the above command, you can first delete requests with the following command, and then try the installation command.
pip uninstall requests

I'm trying to use selenium, but can't get python to recognize it.
I installed it first using "pip install selenium" and "pip install webdriver-manager". It is in the folder "C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python310\Lib\site-packages\selenium", but I get the error "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'selenium'" when I try to import it.(https://i.stack.imgur.com/dVplU.png)
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/wiREJ.png)
Here it is shown as installed with the command "pip list"
(https://i.stack.imgur.com/QhOu7.png)
I also tried uninstalling it and reinstalling with flags that I saw some people say worked, but it didn't make a difference.

I only have one python interpreter version installed, 3.10 (so only one python folder, "Python310"). I have pandas in the same site-packages folder which I can import and use no problem.
If anyone knows what the issue might be, please let me know. I can't figure it out for the life of me.
Okay, I solved the issue by completely uninstalling the interpreter which I got from the Microsoft Store and reinstalling it from the official Python website. Now "from selenium import webdriver" works.
Somehow selenium installed in the global scope is not getting recognized within the Virtual Environment of VS Code / PyCharm.
Solution
You need to install Selenium within the Virtual Environment.
Within the Terminal execute the command:
pip install -U selenium
Hi I'm new and am trying to see how Python Modules work but whenever I do import pafy it says modulenotfounderror and when I do install pafy it says that the I in install is a syntax error.
so how do I fix this? do I download something? and I know the answer might seem obvious but this is my first time using one and those two are the only answers im getting, so help a brother out?
You need to use the command line to pip install pafy
For more information see the pip documentation.
Alternatively, if you want to install it from a python file, you can make one and run it with this code:
import pip
pip.main(['install', 'pafy'])
Use pip from command line.
Assuming you've installed python from the official website (https://python.org), pip should be pre-installed, and you can simply run command line (hotkey win + r and type in cmd on windows) and type in pip install <module name here>, which in your case would be pafy.
Use (this website) for more info, it provides pip commands for macOS, Windows and Linux
I'm running macOS version 11.0.1.
I'm trying to import a module called troposphere
I have Python2.7 as well as Python3.9.1 installed
When I try to import troposphere using Python2.7 like
#!/usr/bin/python
from troposphere import Template
It does work. But when I try to import the same using Python3.9.1 like
#!/usr/bin/python3
from troposphere import Template
It throws error like this
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'troposphere'
What should I do? Please help
it is because the python interpreter you use to run your code doesn't have troposphere installed.
Managing multiple Python version on the same computer is tricky, But I will try to explain it.
I assume that you are using python your_script.py to run your code, and pip install troposphere to install package right? But think of this, how does your system know exactly which python you are running and which python to install package? Here's how to check the full path of your python command and pip command.
type python command enter python console
then type this:
import sys
print(sys.executable)
3. navigate up and down little bit, you will find a bin folder include bin/python which is your interpreter and bin/pip which is your pip command. And there's a lib/site-packages folder, this is where third party library been installed to.
4. if you see import error, use the above method to locate the python interpreter and check the site-packages folder, most likely there's no such troposphere folder in it. Then you need to use the full path of the <path-to>/bin/pip to install troposphere. Then your problem is solved.
If you are using home brew or the python installer download from www.python.org, your system probablly already messed up. The recommended way to manage multiple Python version is to use pyenv https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv. It allows you to install any python version and easy to delete them.
Chek if the module was depreciated
I try a python code for signature recognition, and there is an import ffnet module (from ffnet import mlgraph, ffnet), but I got an error when I run it.
The error is:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ffnet'
I have install the module, but still got that error
Help me to fix this :)
You need to make sure that it is correctly installed. The error message means directly "You haven't installed it properly".
Depending on what Python version you're using, you should have a package manager called pip that takes charge of installing and uninstalling modules. Try:
pip2 install ffnet if you have Python 2.
pip3 install ffnet if you have Python 3.
Alternatively, you may have installed Python using Anaconda. In this case, use conda install ffnet. In all cases, run the proposed commands in a terminal.
However, it would be quite useful to have more details about your problem (what OS do you have, how and where did you install Python, what version do you have).
There is great chance that the pip (i suppose you use pip for installation, the idea is identical) you use to install ffnet is not correspond to the python you are using. Maybe a virtualenv is running, or you using python 2 but ffnet is installed with pip3
My suggestion:
- Run which pip. Run which python. Compare the results if anything seem wrong (python2 pip3 for example). Try to run python2 and pip2 instead of python and pip
- If the above suggestion doesn't work, you should try to recheck your PATH: Find the pip correspond to your current python (usually within the same dir) and export PATH=/path/to/THAT/pip/:$PATH
- If the problem still persist, I suppose your pip file's first line (for specifying its corresponding python path) has been modified without your awareness. You will have to manually edit it to something like #!/usr/bin/python3
Hope this help!
I get this error when running code, so it appears that requests hasn't installed properly. I am running Windows 7 32-bit system with Python 3.3.
When I go into 'Programs and Features' in windows it shows up as installed.
I installed this program from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ and I have also downloaded the requests folder and tried installing it this way, I can't seem to get this to work.
I have visited ImportError: No module named 'requests' already, but I didn't find this helped at all.
I keep seeing the following statement, but I am uncertain of how to run this?
$ python setup.py install
Please help!?!
The answer there is clear. But let me explain to you as good as I can. This error comes because requests module is not installed in your system
Download the requests module to your system from here
And extract it. Go to your command prompt/terminal and reach to the folder you downloaded.There, you will see setup.py, the file that you need to execute to install the requests module.
python setup.py install
Installs the requests module
This line:
$ python setup.py install
It's a command line in a terminal in Linux or the alike. My guess is that you could do the same opening a terminal in Windows pressing the start key and typing 'cmd', without quotes of course. If you had python already install the %PATH% variable should be set up properly and it should just run. Well, perhaps you need to go to the same folder as the setup.py using
> cd path_to_file
And then,
> python setup.py install
I hope it helps. Let me know otherwise.
If you are using Ubuntu, there is need to install requests
run this command:
pip install requests
if you face permission denied error, use sudo before command:
sudo pip install requests
