When writing a program, I like to use the interpreter first to execute my code line by line. However, when using the interpreter, it can never seem to find modules that are definitely installed.
There is no issue when running a .py file. It's only when using the interpreter. My only solution is to change directory to where the module resides, but this is just so time consuming.
What could be the issue here? I wouldn't be anything to do with permissions as it works fine when run with a .py file. Not sure if it's a path environment issue, because again the issue is only when executed in the interpreter. It's very weird.
Try installing an older version of python and then see if you get the same error. It worked for me when I had the same error.
As the titles implies, VSCode is not updating the Interpreter to the correct one. Do mind that version 3.8.5 is not even present in my system anymore. Also the virtual environment is created with Python's venv instead of poetry.
The only thing that fixes the problem is a fresh installation of VSCode. I use a portable mode if that's something worth mentioning.
It's annoying to create a fresh installation and update my settings every time I happen to change between python versions.
If someone has an idea on how to fix the problem I'd would highly appreciate it. Thanks in advance
I have this problem because I have multiple .venvs in same workspace. My workaround is to
copy the full python path you want to point to
run cmd Select Python Interpreter
click Set At Workspace Level
click + Enter Interpreter Path.
Copy and paste the path.
Works for me.
import graphviz works in jupyter notebook, but the same code does not work in Pycharm. I tried to setup an anaconda environment which includes graphviz and I am using that particular python interpreter from pycharm. I am stuck with this problems for last 24 hours, please help..?
Try creating a new project, than choose "Previously configured interpreter". Check if the Python exe within the correct enviroment is selected. So in "Users/UserName/anaconda3/envs/Python/python.exe". Than when the new project is created you can check in the terminal if the correct env is enabled by looking for the term in the brackets. (Should by "Python" for you). Than try to import graphviz in the Python Console. If this works your file has a wrong configuration. Copy it in the new project and add the correct Configuration. Tried this and it works for me. Hope I could help and good luck.
When I am writing
from flask import Flask
One Yellow line is coming up under flask and stating Import "flask" could not be resolved from source Pylance (reportMissingModuleSource) . Also, I am able to do the work with this package also successfully. But the thing is, I am not able to use autosuggesstions for Classes and methods very well.
Further:
I have checked that flask is installed successfully.
Also I visited this thread https://github.com/microsoft/pylance-release/issues/236
And I set up my settings.json in vscode as follows:
"python.analysis.extraPaths": [
"/media/sarimurrab/New Volume/COURSES/Flask/FlaskMigrateforDatabaseMigrations/2"
]
But Still, unable to resolve the error.
When I did not install the module "flask" in the Python environment currently used in VSCode:
Please use the command "pip --version" to check the source of the module installation tool "pip", the module is installed at this location:
Then, we can use the command "pip show flask" to check the installation location of the module "flask": (It checks whether the installation location of the module is consistent with the Python environment displayed in the lower left corner of VSCode.)
If the "reportMissingModuleSource" message is still displayed here, please reload VS Code.
(F1, Developer: Reload Window)
Are you using a Virtualenv? If so make sure that VSCode is using the virtualenv as your python interpreter, otherwise it will not be able to pick up the packages that you installed inside this virtualenv.
To do so, click on the Python interpreter in your bottom bar, you should get a list of possible python interpreters including your virtualenv.
I had a similar issue while trying to import flask on vscode.
I fixed it by using anaconda. Simply you install the flask module in your created environment example screenshot.
How to create a virtual env in anaconda:
1. On the left sidebar, click on environments.
2. Click create (at the bottom).
3. At the pop-up window, give your vir.env a name
and select the language version.
4. Once created, you can start installing
different modules in your environment.
I hope that helps!
For Linux Mint and for those who have installed flask, but VSCode doesn't find it:
check the Flask path: pip show flask (should be smth like
Location: /home/<username>/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages
in VSCode click left bottom button and choose the python interpreter, in my case I changed it from python3.9 to python3.8 as we can see it in the flask path.
That's because you have not chosen your path correctly,
type:
pipenv --venv
then it will show you where your virtual env is installed. Check where the packages are installed in your env, and then type what comes to you from the shell\scripts or whatever\python, and the packages will work.
I solved my problem by using a "Global" version of Python. Maybe Pylance had not updated to work with the version of Python I was using.

I was facing same issue. I tried all solutions from stack-overflow but none worked. But after lot of searching and time waste I found my silly mistake. I had created folder named 'flask' and stored my project there. I'm beginner and going through lot of such silly mistakes. Hope it would help, if somebody commits same mistake.
I think this is a Vscode problem ,just restart the Vscode .
By the following steps, I solved this issue:
1)On the project directory create the .flaskenv file
In the .flaskenv file write the following two lines:
FLASK_ENV=development
FLASK_APP=main.py
Please pay attention that main.py is my main file after writing flask run in the Vscode terminal, additionally, you have to create an env folder or requirement file proviosly.
A few answers (Jill's, Marius's, and Roy's) mention the fact that is necessary to choose the correct Python interpreter to make Pylance function properly. I would like to add the fact that this is still necessary to do when using a Jupyter Notebook with the correct Python kernel already chosen.
It is counterintuitive to choose both Python interpreter and notebook's Python kernel to make things work. It is even more counterintuitive considering the fact that Python interpreter's button (on the left bottom of the screen, on status bar) does not necessarily appear when a Jupyter Notebook is open, but when a Python script is open. For instance, in this screenshot, we see the little line under Scikit-learn's import, indicating a problem with the import (even though the import is successful). However, the correct Python kernel, with Scikit-learn installed, is already chosen. Only opening a Python script we notice that the Python interpreter is the reason of this behavior, because a wrong one is chosen, without Scikit-learn. In some sense, one could think that the reason behind this was a problem with the Python kernel or the Conda environment (it is common to experience this kind of problem when experimenting with Jupyter Notebook and Jupyter Lab). I hope this answer may help those who are searching for solving this problem in the specific context of Jupyter Notebooks inside VS Code. They could ignore the other answers because they could think it is not the case for them.
let me explain the problem:
I have pyCharm, SublimeText, CodeRunner, and IPython Notebook. I've been exploring each one to see which i like best. Turns out to be PyCharm.
Here's the problem - CodeRunner recognizes the package for "Selenium", and gladly imports the module.
However, when I use pyCharm and iPython notebook, an import error occurs - which befuddles me. Why would it work for one IDE and not the another?
Also - i used "sudo pip install selenium" in the terminal. What exactly is the root of the problem? I feel like it has something to do with permissions, but am not knowledgeable of how to modify permissions for python packages.
Thanks.
In Pycharm you need to source the directory that contains the package Selenium.
In your project browser right-click a directory and select Mark directory as > source
eg:
/path/to/py/packages/Selenium/
You need to source the "packages" directory.
