TypeError: translation() got an unexpected keyword argument 'codeset'

I'm following a Python tutorial on youtube and need to create a django website, however I am unable to start, because when I enter "python manage.py runserver" I get the "TypeError: translation() got an unexpected keyword argument 'codeset'" message. I've run back the video like 20 times to see if I've missed anything, but no, because it's just the beginning of the django website tutorial. I've also tried typing python3 instead of python and some other options I saw on Stack Overflow, but none are really exactly relevant to the error message I'm getting. Perhaps someone knows how to fix this?
I tried to start a development server by typing in "python manage.py runserver" which was supposed to start a django webserver at 127.0.0.1:8000 or something, but instead I got the error message specified in the title
code:
PS C:\Users\kaspa\PycharmProjects\PyShop> python manage.py runserver

TypeError: translation() got an unexpected keyword argument 'codeset
'

I've also been following Mosh's Python course, ran into the same problem, came here for answers and then did some more research on my own.
I'm a total beginner, I might me wrong, but in the tutorial, Mosh makes us install django 2.1 instead of the current version of django. The error "translation() got an unexpected keyword argument 'codeset'" basically means that python thinks there shouldn't be an argument called 'codeset' after the gettext_module.translation( that is in the code created with/(used in?) django 2.1.
Turns out, in the python gettext documentation, "Changed in version 3.11: codeset parameter is removed.". So django 2.1 has some code that isn't reconized by python 3.11, which pops an error.
Solution:
1- Deleted my python "PyShop" project.
2- Closed PyCharm.
3- Created a new "PyShop" project.
4- In the terminal, typed "pip uninstall django".
5- Then installed the current version of django by typing "pip install django" in the terminal (not pip install django==2.1 as shown in the tutorial).
6- Created the "pyshop" folder by typing "django-admin startproject pyshop ." in the terminal.
7- Typed "python manage.py runserver" in the terminal.
And voila! No more error, because the current version of django doesn't create stuff with code that the current version of python doesn't recognize in it.
New to python and stack overflow, sorry for some things I maybe wrote wrong or something :)

The error refers to the file trans_real.py.
According to error message:
TypeError: translation() got an unexpected keyword argument 'codeset'
'codeset' is not a valid keyword. So comment it (place # at the beginning of the line).
It worked for me.

You can uninstall the django 2.1 using pip uninstall django==2.1
and reinstall the django that is compatible with your current interpreter (Python3) using pip install django.

I have used pyinstaller many times before but I have never faced such issues
I am facing issues while converting .py to .exe using pyinstaller
What I have tried
I have installed pythonnet and opened the directory where pythonnet is stored but i could not find any dll file
I am using the following command
PyInstaller app.py --noconsole --icon=./images/Source.​ico

I have also install pythonnet but it is still not working neither can I find the dll

This is not a direct answer to your question, but I have had a lot of issues with pyinstaller myself in the past year. At this point I have the process perfected that I almost never have issues anymore. The key for me has been:
Do not use virtual environments (venv). I use a separate older computer specifically for pyinstaller. The computer only has basic python, pycharm and the libraries I need for my build installed to site packages. I install everything globally. I remove libraries I do not need.
If a library causes problems like you describe, try installing an older versio of said library.
To follow up:
Using pycharm does not work or pycharm in general does not work?
What I would recommend you do is what I do on a fresh computer:
Make sure you know which libraries your project requires. You could generate a requirements file: Automatically create requirements.txt
Uninstall python / anaconda from your computer completely incl all libs.
Reinstall python (not anaconda as it has way to many libraries) and click yes if installer asks you to add to path. Install pycharm community edition if you do not have it.
Install pyinstaller and other libs you need, but install them globally! I recommend using pycharm. Settings>yourproject>python interpreter>little plus icon>libraries you need. IMPORTANT: CHOOSE TO INSTALL TO SITE PACKAGE DIRECTORY:
Go to terminal in pycharm and type: pyinstaller --onefile my_python_file.py
You should now get an .exe file. in a dist folder in the directory of your file.
NOTE: the above should not be necessary and pyinstaller can work with virtual environments, but I have found it to be the most reliable way to use pyinstaller.

Try installing py2exe. This program also bundles python programs into .exe files, and I have used it for one of my games. To install this program, simply type into the command line:
python -m pip install py2exe
For more resources on py2exe, check out these links:
http://www.py2exe.org/
https://github.com/py2exe/py2exe

You should reinstall python and add it to your path, that might help you. There are lot of videos online you can refer to.

PyInstaller not working with module pycountry?

Normally PyInstaller works fine for me but i saw a problem using the python-module pycountry.
I tried this very simple code:
import pycountry
land="DE"
country = pycountry.countries.get (alpha_2=land)
print(country.name)
Compiled it with pyinstaller:
pyinstaller --onefile xyz.py
But i want to execute the compiled exe i get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "temp2.py", line 1, in <module>

pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'pycountry' distribution was not found and is required by the application
[45548] Failed to execute script temp2
Is there any workaround i can get pycountry functionality to running with pyinstaller?
UPDATE:
found a workaround / solution for my problem-
use command <pyi-makespec --onefile temp2.py> to generate a temp2.spec file
change filename.spec => from PyInstaller.utils.hooks import copy_metadata (in the header) => in the a = Analysis(...) section change " datas = []," to <datas = copy_metadata("pycountry"),>
use pyinstaller to compile exe as above
Alternative: compile program before - change spec - an use command <pyInstaller --clean temp2.spec> – Rapid1898 just now Edit

Your update was really helpful to me. But I needed a variation in order for it to work. I would just order the ideas to show clearer the way it must be done for pycountry library to work properly.
Use command pyi-makespec --onefile name-of-your-file.py to generate a .spec file
with name name-of-your-file.spec
Open name-of-your-file.spec with the text editor of your preference.
Add to the top of the .spec file the following line from PyInstaller.utils.hooks import copy_metadata
Replace datas = [] for datas = copy_metadata("pycountry")
Then rebuild using the following command PyInstaller --clean name-of-your-file.spec
I hope it is helpful for anyone facing the same error.
You can read the documentation for using spec files.
And you can find the same process in this link.

Spyder not launching from one of the Anaconda environments

I'm new to this. I have begun learning OpenCV with Python and following the course directions I've successfully created an Anaconda environment from which I can easily import CV2 and carry out my course. So far, I have experienced no problems in working with this environment.
Now, I would like to begin using Spyder which launches well from the default/base environment but does not launch from the "opencv-course" environment which I created. By contrast, Jupyter Labs and Notebooks launch well on either environment.
I've attempted to uninstall/reinstall Spyder using Administrator privileges when launching Anaconda, but to no avail.
Could anyone forward a suggestion?
Many thanks!

After checking out this answer here:
Spyder failed to launch in Anaconda after update (4.1.2)
I've solved the problem by downgrading the version of Pylint from 2.5 to 2.4.4. It now works fine.
Many thanks!

Urllib2 is specific to Python v2.
Urllib2 documentation at http://docs.python.org/library/urllib2.html:
The urllib2 module has been split across several modules in Python 3.0
named urllib.request and urllib.error.
I don't think Ansible is compatible with Python 3 yet.

The ansible python API does not support Python 3. The PyPI page lists only 2.6 and 2.7 .

Ansible is currently not able to run with Python3. That is also stated in the linked Github Issue.

If you are using
import urllib2
Instead, you can call the library as
import urllib.request
Then use it like
urllib.request.urlopen('your url goes here')
This should get rid of the error you are getting
