When I write import MySQLdb in Eclipse using the PyDev plugin, I get an unresolved import. However, the program runs without error. I can add an annotation to get the error to go away, but what is the right way to handle this?
How can I help Eclipse know that MySQLdb is there?
It sounds like MySQLdb is somewhere on your sys.path, but not on your Eclipse project's PYTHONPATH; in other words, Eclipse thinks you're going to get an import error at runtime because you haven't fully configured it. Google seems to say that you can alter this setting in Window->Preferences->Preferences->PyDev->Python Interpreter to include the path to your MySQLdb module.
For some help figuring out where MySQLdb might be living on your system:
Open an interactive interpreter,
import MySQLdb
If that succeeds, you can get a hint from: print MySQLdb.__file__; it may be the __init__ file in the package that you need to point the path at.
cdleary above provided the reason two years ago, but this may be easier. Basically, one reinstalls the interpreter.
Select Window - > Preferences -> PyDev -> Interpreter - Python
Select the python interpreter in the upper pane
Click on Remove
Click on Auto Config
Agree to everything.
This works on Fedora 17 using the Eclipse 4.2.0 that came with the package management.
Fixed this by doing two things:
1) Added MySQLdb egg to the PYTHONPATH under Window->Preferences->Preferences->PyDev->Python Interpreter.
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\MySQL_python-1.2.3c1-py2.6-win32.egg
2) Close and re-open the .py file that had the red x.
Adding the egg works, but the error remains. The solution for that error can be found by adding
##UnresolvedImport
To the import statement, as in:
import web ##UnresolvedImport

I once had a similar problem on Windows (never encountered this on Linux though) and I discovered that I had to include the .egg directory of my library to my PYTHONPATH.
For example my PYTHONPATH (Pydev/Interpreter - Python/Libraries) included:
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages
and I had to add:
C:\Python26\Lib\site-packages\jinja2-2.2.1-py2.6.egg
to use jinja.
This surely works I just tried it with Pmw package. Unzip package in site-packages. Then remove python interpreter from eclipse and then add it again. Your import errors shall go away. also you may want add module to forced builtins. See How do I fix PyDev "Undefined variable from import" errors? and http://pydev.org/manual_101_interpreter.html
I had a similar issue and the following is what I did to solve my issue. I have a Windows 8 Machine, Python 2.7 installed and running my stuff through eclipse.
Some Background:
When I did an easy install it tries to install MySQL-python 1.2.5 which failed with an error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat. I did an easy_install of pip and tried the pip install which also failed with a similar error. They both reference vcvarsall.bat which is something to do with visual studio, since I don't have visual studio on my machine, it left me looking for a different solution, which I share below.
The Solution:
Reinstall python 2.7.8 from 2.7.8 from https://www.python.org/download this will add any missing registry settings, which is required by the next install.
Install 1.2.4 from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/1.2.4
After I did both of those installs, I reopened eclipse and got a prompt to update the paths of eclipse which I accepted, after that I was able to query my MySQL db.
import MySQLdb
If this code show error like this:
Unresolved import: MySQLdb
you should add D:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\MySQLdb to your sys.path.
D:\Python27\Lib\site-packages\MySQLdb is this location where you install MySQLdb in your computer disk. After this step, the error will disappear.

I have downloaded Pandas library with pip install pandas through the command prompt, when I try to import pandas as pd PyCharm returns an error : ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pandas'
I have tried to uninstall and install again many times but nothing seems to work. Does anybody know a solution to this?
You can try downloading the library from PyCharm settings:
File -> Settings
then, Project: -> Python Interpreter
Click a + sign to the right,
Search for the pandas library,
and finally, press 'Install Package'
I think you have to choose the right python interpreter. Check my screenshot
You likely have multiple copies of Python installed on your system. PyCharm can be configured to use any version of Python on your system, including any virtual environments you've defined. The solution is to match up the version of Python you've installed Pandas into with the version of Python that PyCharm is using to run your code.
There are two places where you specify a Python version. First of all, your Project has a version associated with it. Check the "Python Interpreter" section of the "Project" section of your Preferences for that. That version is used for syntax highlighting, code completion, etc.
By default, the abovementioned Python version will also be used to run your code. But you can change the version of Python that your code is run with by creating or modifying a Run Configuration. To do this, check the menu next to the Run and Debug toolbar buttons near the top-left of your PyCharm window.
When you do get into the Python Interpreter section of the Preferences, you'll find that you can see all of the modules installed for each Python version that PyCharm knows about. You can use this to check to see if Pandas is installed for a particular Python version.
I would suggest you get comfortable with all that I've said above. It will save you many headaches in the future.
I had a few imports I was using for my project. Some of these included packages I downloaded using pip like
import MySQLdb
While others were modules from within my project like
sys.path.append(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), "../")) .
from util.myFile import get_mysql_connection, execute_query,
These were all working and I was able to run my application on PyCharm. I closed PyCharm and opened it back up to find most of these imports "could not be found". Any help regarding this will be much appreciated. Thanks
Update:
I'm able to run the file from terminal (iTerm) without errors. However, the file still shows red error marks by the imports. Seems like PyCharm isn't recognizing some sort of path
Check the traceback for what version of python is being called.
There could be a mismatch between the version you've imported modules with and the version that runs by default.
Double check what is being used as your project interpreter. This can change the available packages to your current project.
Found in PyCharm by going to Settings -> Project:<'Your-Project'> -> Project Interpreter
Also, did you install MySQLdb in this way? MySQLdb - ModuleNotFoundError
Being a complete begginer in python, I decided to install the python interpreter 3.4.4, and also PyDev plugin for eclipse IDE. I am also using windows 10.
I have encountered a problem regarding certain imports, namely : from PIL import Image, ImageTk, which is apparently an unresolved import.
I have looked at certain questions which were similar to my situation, but most of them gave a solution like installing packaged from the linux apt-get. Here are some topics I visited :
Uninstalling and reinstalling Pillow and pip,
Installing pillow-imaging-tk on Ubuntu,
This topic which left me very confused,
This one seemed helpful, but is on Unix OS again
So please, could someone explain to me why I am seeing this error, and how could I correct it if I absolutely want to use Eclipse, Pydev, windows 10 and Python 3.
Found the solution, here's what I did:
Set the PYTHONPATH like it is shown in this article, make sure python.exe is accessible via cmd,
Via cmd, type pip install pillow. Alternatively, you can enter the same command from Windows+R,
(Not sure if relevant step) Via eclipse, Windows->Preferences->PyDev->PythonInterpreterremove your interpreter to re-add it,
Restart eclipse.
For Python import problems in PyDev, the project web site has a page on interpreter configuration that is a good place to start. I recently had a similar problem that I solved by adding a module to the forced builtins tab.
I am using PyDev via eclipse and have used easy_install to get jsonpickle. No matter what I do I can't seem to get the import to work.
What I have tried thus far:
I have removed it from easy_install.pth and deleted the egg and installed again.
Add my python lib, dll, etc folders to a PYTHONPATH system variable
Restarted eclipse
Other imports are working fine. Not sure what I am doing wrong?
EDIT:
Sorry should have included OS / Python version.
OS: Windows 7
Python: 2.7
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
OS and python version?
Please use pip. Always.
pydev seems to ignore your package. It should be in /usr/share/pythonX.Y/site-packages/jsonpickle, or, if on Windows, c:\pythonxx[...].
If using Linux, please try to find a distro package for jsonpickle.
I get an Unresolved Error while importing a package (bigfloat) by import bigfloat in PyDev in eclipse. However on from bigfloat import * the error is resolved. What is the reason behind this?
I used easy_install to download and install the bigfloat package. Does it not update the python_path in the process??
I have also tried adding the library as an external library in the pythonpath properties, but I still get the same error.
Is the error being reported by the PyDev / eclipse IDE, or does it happen when you run the code?
In the first case, this is probably due to eclipse caching the information about what packages you have installed.
What you need to do is go to "Preferences -> Pydev -> Interpreter - Python" where you define the python interpreter to be used. Remove the current interpreter, and add it back in again.
This will cause eclipse to re-read all the path information and it should clear the error.
