Python3.7 on Windows Ubuntu Bash shell ImportError: cannot import name 'HTTPSHandler' from 'urllib.request' (/usr/lib/python3.7/urllib/request.py)

I've recently updated Python to version 3.7 from version 3.5, and made it the default in my bash shell. I've also updated pip and made sure it uses Python3.7.
Now, whenever I try to install any module using pip I get this error"
$pip3 install google
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/AnnaK/.local/bin/pip3", line 7, in <module>

I get the same error if I try to simply run pip. This didn't happen when I was using python3.5. I did have this problem when briefly using python2.7, but I fixed it using https://askubuntu.com/questions/581999/pip-raises-importerror-cannot-import-name-httpshandler. That solution doesn't seem to work for python3.7.
I've tried to reinstall pip, reinstall python3, update my Windows Ubuntu subsystem, and reinstall libssl-dev. I'm stumped. Any help is appreciated!

You must have inadvertently upgraded your system pip (probably through something like sudo pip install pip --upgrade)
pip x.x adjusts where its internals are situated. The pip3 command you're seeing is one provided by your package maintainer and is not a file managed by pip.
You can read more about this on pip's issue tracker
You'll probably want to not upgrade your system pip and instead use a virtualenv.
To recover the pip3 binary you'll need to sudo python3 -m pip uninstall pip && sudo apt install python3-pip --reinstall.
It should work fine if you use the first approach python3 -m pip ... instead of pip3 ....

Python3.7 'No module named apt_pkg' error on Linux Mint 19

When I attempt to run some test code my professor gave me using Python3.7 on Linux Mint 19 I get the following error
RuntimeError: Bad code object in .pyc file
Error in sys.excepthook:
Traceback (most recent call last):

import apt_pkg
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'apt_pkg'
Original exception was:
RuntimeError: Bad code object in .pyc file
At first, I only installed Python3.7 minimal and this error didn't occur, but I needed to install the full version of Python3.7 to use some modules that come with it, and that started this error. I already tried installing Python3.7 dev and it did nothing. I also tried
sudo apt-get remove --purge python3.7-apt
and it said it couldn't even find apt. So I tried
sudo apt-get install python3.7-apt
and it couldn't even find the package. I also tried installing python3-apt and it did nothing. I would uninstall python3-apt first but apparently that could harm the OS because Mint uses Python3.6 internally. Any help resolving this would be much appreciated!

I had the same issue with python3.7
I literally just reinstalled python3-apt and the error disappeard
sudo apt remove python3-apt
then
sudo apt install python3-apt

Error importing tensorflow in Python 3 on Ubuntu 16.04 SyntaxError: l.append("%s=%s" % (attr, `value`))

I have python 3.5 installed on my Linux Mint (Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial)
I also had installed protobuf installed using pip3 install protobuf
I installed tensorflow using pip3 install tensorflow
Then I tried to import tensorflow in python 3 it failed with error presented below:

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Consulting through many questions posted on SO and other forums, I tried uninstalling protobuf then I encountered following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/abdullah/face_recognition/tensorflow_test.py", line 1, in <module>

ImportError: No module named 'google.protobuf'
At the moment I'm just a beginner for all of this. I don't why protobuf is required why do all this hassle? I just wanted to get tensorflow installed on my system and try to learn something.

I was also facing the same problem. The problem I think is this is using pandas from system(apt-get) repository which is not compatible with other libraries. Updating pandas do the trick.
pip3 install --upgrade pandas
Also in your case, if only doing above fails, you can also try to reinstall tensorflow and protobuf with upgrade option.
pip3 install --upgrade protobuf
pip3 install --upgrade tensorflow

I just installed TensorFlow on my system today (Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) using VirtualEnv.
Did you run$ sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-dev
If so, then try $ pip3 install -upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-1.4.0-cp35-cp35m-linux_x86_64.whl
Worst comes to worse, you could simply uninstall TensorFlow using $ sudo pip3 uninstall tensorflow and then try reinstalling to see if it corrects any errors.

Tensorflow pip built from source fails on 'import tensorflow'

Any thoughts?

This does look like a protobuf library versioning error. There's a long thread on similar issues here:
https://github.com/tensorflow/tensorflow/issues/11
Towards the end there are some suggested solutions that might help.

I succeed in running TensorFlow 0.7 on a manjaro linux laptop using cuda acceleration by running python with optirun:
$optirun python
However, I had problem with protobuf and I had to uninstall/reinstall previous version of protobuf and tensorflow with pip. http://bit.ly/1RHApU5

This is because of protobuf version conflict:
for me i had python-protobuf v2.6.1 installed from apt-get package manager
and while installing tensorflow it installed protobuf v3.3.0 from pip manager
so i uninstalled both:
sudo pip uninstall protobuf
sudo apt-get remove python-protobuf
Reinstalled using pip and it solved the issue!!!
sudo pip install protobuf
Hope this helps..

Having trouble installing buildslave on Windows 7

I finally got pip install buildbot-slave to work on Win7 (thanks to another answer on this site), and now when I attempt to create a build slave via:
buildslave create-slave slavefolder blah.blah.com:9989 buildslave password
It kicks back the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python27\Scripts\buildslave", line 3, in <module>

raise ImportError(required + ": no module named zope.interface.")
ImportError: Twisted requires zope.interface 3.6.0 or later: no module named zope.interface.
I've got it all installed here is my pip freeze:
Twisted==14.0.0
argparse==1.2.1
buildbot-slave==0.8.9
stevedore==0.15
virtualenv==1.9.1
virtualenv-clone==0.2.5
virtualenvwrapper==4.3.1
virtualenvwrapper-win==1.1.5
zope.interface==4.1.1
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Try to uninstall zope.interface and reinstall the version 3.6.0 using the command
pip uninstall zope.interface
pip install zope.interface==3.6.0
Hope this helps.
