I'm reading the book "Python Crash Course" and I'm following along with the project alien invasion. I installed Python and the package Pygame as the book shows it.
When I run my code I get a ModuleNotFoundError:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pygame'
[Finished in 0.0s with exit code 1]
[cmd: ['python3', '-u', '/Users/antonio_spatuzzi/Documents/python_work/alien_invasion/alien_invasion.py']]
[dir: /Users/antonio_spatuzzi/Documents/python_work/alien_invasion]
[path: /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.9/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin]
even though the package has been successfully installed:
``Requirement already satisfied: pygame in ./.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (2.0.1)```
How can I solve this problem?
It seems that you installed the module for python 3.8 and you try to run it with python 3.9. Try installing the package with
python -m pip install
We can see from the output you posted that python3 is being used to run your programs:
[cmd: ['python3', '-u', '/Users/antonio_spatuzzi/Documents/python_work/alien_invasion/alien_invasion.py']]
So as was mentioned in an earlier comment, running python3 -m pip install pygame should install Pygame to the version of Python that you're currently using.
For beginners it's not a good practice to have two different versions of python installed. If you are on windows try to uninstall all versions of python. (maybe this helps: How to completely remove Python from a Windows machine?)
Then try installing the newest version of python and pygame.
In general, it's good practice to make a virtual environment with different instances of python and the respective packages used for a special project.
Maybe have a look into Anaconda

I am unable to get dateutil installed in my Python code.
from dateutil import tz
ImportError: No module named dateutil
I had date-util installed (Python version is 3.7.3)
> pip3 install python-dateutil
Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://www.piwheels.org/simple
Requirement already satisfied: python-dateutil in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (2.7.3)
I cannot uninstall them (to reinstall). I get the following error
> sudo pip3 uninstall python-dateutil
Not uninstalling python-dateutil at /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages, outside environment /usr
Can't uninstall 'python-dateutil'. No files were found to uninstall.
Then, I used the following command to uninstall:
> sudo apt-get remove python3-dateutil #This worked
> pip3 install python-dateutil
This works, but asks me to install cycler, kiwisolver, pyparsing, which I install using pip3. But I still cant get the python code working - has the same error (ImportError: No module named dateutil)
Any suggestions on what's going on?
I found a solution - The python code is being called from a bash script. It worked fine until recently. Recently I installed some other packages that installed python 2.x. So, the python scripts were using Python 2.x rather than 3.x. I had symbolic links to python 3.x, but that didn't help.
Now, I am explicitly use python3 mycode.py to overcome this issue.
I highly recommend to use conda environment instead of pip. See, there are several modules which do not give expected behaviour in pip (like pytorch).
Get the package installed using:
conda install -c conda-forge python-dateutil
returning the question, to get the package running it requires fulfillment of it's dependencies. If you are using python 3.7.3 its obvious that it may lack in some of the features of modern python 3.11 as a result you get the obvious error. The python package python-dateutil must have been configured according to the modern python language version.
Iam using python 3.11.1 and the package gets installed very perfectly. You may install old version of package or upgrade your python language version or use Conda as mentioned before.
libdoc2testbench is a tool of Robot Framework which supports importing test results to imbus testbench. Due to Robot Framework documentation, it is to be installed by
pip install robotframework-libdoc2testbench
I want to install it on Ubuntu 18.04; there I get the error:
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement robotframework-libdoc2testbench (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for robotframework-libdoc2testbench
Best regards

You are probably calling pip from Python 2.7.
Make sure you use Python 3, for example with:
python3 -m pip install robotframework-libdoc2testbench
EDIT: You can download the .wheel or source tar from pypi.org and install with pip pointing to it (and then if needed, download other required packages).
However the solution to your problem is the Python version. From the project page, we see it needs Python 3.7.
I am trying to run some code using ortools on a python environment. I did not have troubles on a windows machine but I am having problems on mac (10.12.6). if in my virtual environment I run
pip freeze
or
conda list
ortools appears in my list of installed packages. But if I try to use it
ipython
from ortools.linear_solver import pywrapplp
I get an error saying that there's no module named ortools. If I go to
mac/anaconda3/envs/nameenv/lib/python3.6/site-packages I do have a folder called ortools with some python files including pywrapplp. Do you know what I am doing wrong ?
EDIT
following request from coments:
import os
os.getcwd()
returns '/Users/imac'
which ipython
/anaconda3/bin/ipython
Installing ortools is a bit of a headache. It was some days ago, I think I finally made it with
easy_install ortools
I think it is a problem with the path. I guess because I did not install it with conda it does not find the package. I got around writting:
sys.path.append('/anaconda3/envs/env_name/lib/python3.6/site-packages/')
at the begining of my ipynb. That way I can run ortools.
You could have several python interpreter installed (python2 and python3)
So if you want to use it with ipython, which seems to be bind on python3 in your case.
First check if you have pypi package ortools installed
ipython -m pip show ortools
If you got an error it means the package is not installed.
so you can easily install it using:
ipython -m pip install --user ortools
note: We provide Pypi ortools package (64 bits) for Manylinux, Windows and MacOS.
You can also rebuild it from source https://developers.google.com/optimization/introduction/installing/source
in my Python Script there is an ERROR with the line
import win32events
I still installed the package pypiwin32 (with pip install pypiwin32) but it seems that this is nor the right package.
Does someone know what I need to install to use win32events in Python?
You should install pywin32 package (not pypiwin32)!!!
Trying to plot the data from ros topics in a rosbag file. My system by default had Python 2.7 and I installed Python 3.5 just to work with Jupyter notebooks.
Now I have installed several packages twice, once for Python 2 and again for Python 3. Although most packages are compatible with both versions of Python, I am beginning to wonder if all the ros packages are compatible here.
For the image in this question, initially I was getting an error 'No module named 'rosbag_pandas'', then I installed it with pip3. Now I am facing the error shown in the image with regards to rosbag. I have searched high and low for a quick fix but to no avail. I read online that some packages only work with either Python 2.7 or with Python 3.5. Is that what's happening here?
FYI I have installed pyrosbag with pip and pip3 both. Still facing this issue. Could really use some help with this.
I faced the same problem and found a workaround for me. Basically, on top of the usual python 3 installation, install a python 2 kernel for jupyter notebook, as described here, as follows:
python2 -m pip install pip
python2 -m pip install --upgrade ipykernel
python2 -m ipykernel install
Not sure if there is indeed a python 3 package for rosbag but using the python 2 kernel you can import rosbag files to save them in another format for further processing in python 3.
