I am trying to learn Python and debug code for the first time in VS Code (latest edition). I have anaconda running and the code I have runs fine by itself but now I need to know how to update the code and debug it for the first time.
I keep getting the following error related to NumPy:
Exception has occurred: ImportError
IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS FOR ADVICE ON HOW TO SOLVE THIS ISSUE!
Importing the numpy C-extensions failed. This error can happen for
many reasons, often due to issues with your setup or how NumPy was
installed.
We have compiled some common reasons and troubleshooting tips at:
https://numpy.org/devdocs/user/troubleshooting-importerror.html
Please note and check the following:
The Python version is: Python3.7 from "C:\Miniconda2\envs\myproject_flask\python.exe"
The NumPy version is: "1.18.5"
and make sure that they are the versions you expect.
Please carefully study the documentation linked above for further help.
Original error was: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
In the Miniconda path above the Python.exe is version 3.7.7. I tried to install NumPy like so in myproject directory:
(myproject_flask) c:\MyProject\source\MyProject.Flask>conda install numpy=1.18.5
I still get the same error when I go to F5 to debug and run to a breakpoint.
Need help with my environment.
I need to use VS Code in my Windows environment with Anaconda.
You should launch VS Code from Anaconda Navigator so that the environment is initialized.
When you have problems with importing the numpy C-extensions in Anaconda it's very likely that your virtual environment hasn't been activated. Having just Python on the path is not good enough. You also need access to the libraries. This is what the activation does.
When you are running/debugging code you should see a terminal open. You can tell from the prompt
(myproject_flask) C:\MyProject
that conda has been activated. Sometimes this just takes a bit too long for VSCode. So simply push the start button a second time.
Note that the Code Runner extension in VSCode is also known to cause this kind of problems.
However, I wonder why you are using Miniconda2 with Python3, although in general this should work.
I was getting the error even after adding all the anaconda paths, it was due to VScode running the code in the python debugger terminal which is not able to enter the conda environment.
This worked for me:
press ctrl+Shift+P > Type Terminal:Select Default profile > Select Command prompt
after this code ran in Command prompt by default, inside the environment.

System: MacOSX 10.15,
VSCode Version: 1.67.2,
Python Kernel Version: 3.8.13 (Conda base).
I created a new Jupyter notebook in my VSCode using command shortcut and selected the right python kernel showed above. The empty notebook page is well loaded and no error message occurred.
But when I typed and ran any code in the cell, this error message showed up below the cell.
Then I clicked the "log" link and the error log showed up and it was like this:
And hence I couldn't run any code in the notebook cell. Then I changed to another Python Kernel (3.9.12) of the same notebook, it showed the same error message:
Please give me a solution to overcome this bug.
Update: I tried to reinstall pyzmq to an older version in the canda base environment and it didn't change anything. Then I typed command jupyter --version and everything is well installed.
Update: I have searched on Github Issues of VSCode. There are two similar issues that are all caused by some extensions, one is called "Gitduck"(now renamed "duckly"), the other is "nur.Script". The link to these issues are here:
Cannot read property 'makeSettings' of undefined #834
Cannot read property 'makeSettings' of undefined #128458
But unfortunately, I never have installed any of these extensions in my VSCode. So it may be caused by a similar extension but I still don't know the name.
Finally, I use the command code --list-extensions to list all my installed extensions here, maybe helpful for filtering which extension is the bad guy:
Final Update: Today (05/31) I opened VSCode and tentatively created an empty Jupyter notebook, and this problem has gone away. I have done nothing, maybe VSCode's auto-update has solved this problem. Case closed.
You can try reinstalling the pyzmq module.
pip uninstall pyzmq
pip install pyzmq==19.0.2
Hope this helps you.
I'm using Anaconda. I created an environment called ENGINEERING. In than environment I installed python 3.6, pandas 1.1.3, spyder 3.3.6, numpy 1.19.2, and many more. The base environment has these packages also but not necessarily the same version. Within the ENGINEERING env I created a python script in Spyder that runs without any issues when I run it in spyder. Then, I want to automate that script by creating a .bat file and then using that to automate via windows task scheduler. My .bat looks like this:
"C:\Users\alopo000\Anaconda3\envs\engineering\python.exe" "C:\Users\alopo000\Files\Python\Valid\Portf.py"
pause
when I run the .bat I get an error message:
ImportError: Unable to import required dependencies:

I've tried many things to fix this. I went to the website they suggested and couldn't find anything there. I uninstalled pandas and numpy and reinstall them again but still, same error. The one thing I haven't tried is to fix the VARIABLE PATHS, mostly because I've read in many places not to change those. I can change them if that's what it is, but I would like to understand first why it is not recommended. I read it can create issues with other versions of python but not sure if that's what it is.
Do I need to activate the environment in the .bat file? is the problem that the .bat file is trying to run it outside the environment? Any help would be appreciated.
You will need to upgrade/change your base Python & numpy version installations to match those specified (3.6, 1.19.2). I had the same issue and same situation as OP (write/dev program in a virtual Spyder environment "spyder-env", then automate .py file with WTS). I tried copying over & running the 'activate.bat' in the /scripts/ folder of the virtual environment but that didn't work. In my situation, my conda spyder-env was Python = 3.9.12 and numpy = 1.21.5.
I ended up upgrading my base global Python version (conda install) for Python which changed from 3.8.3 and did the same with numpy (had to downgrade). I'm not sure if this is exactly necessary, why this works, or if it may cause problems down the line (I was about to just re-install conda).
The appropriate .bat file should be something like this once you do that:
call "C:\Users\alopo000\Anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat"
call "C:\Users\alopo000\Files\Python\Valid\Portf.py" %*

I'm trying to set up a script with SQL connection, and am running into the following error:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pyodbc'
from the line:
import pyodbc
I'm using Python 3.9.2, Spyder version 4.2.3. Updated to latest Spyder version 5.0.1, no change.
Weirdly I have no trouble importing the module from the command line, it's only when I run it through Spyder that I get this issue.
Normally, from what I've read this would be a case of multiple environments, but I have yet to set up any environments so I only have one python installation.
I also have the site-packages folder properly added to path, heck I've moved the pyodbc files into their own directory and added THAT to the path.
I've copy and pasted the files into Spyder's packages directory too, but still didn't fix the issue.
The only thing I can think of is this:
which indicates that Spyder is using Python 3.7.9 as its interpreter rather than the version I actually have installed?
Any idea what the issue could be?
Thank you Ewran for your help.
When I changed the interpreter it gave me an error message to update my spyder-kernels which seems to have fixed the issue.
To summarize for others:
1). Make sure you have a path to C:\Users<User>\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python39\Lib\site-packages
2). Make sure you're installing the module to the correct environment
3). Make sure Spyder is using the correct interpreter, point it to the desired python.exe and update Spyder's kernels if needed.
If you are fine with the Python 3.7.9 used by Spyder, you can type
!pip install pyodbc
directly in Spyder's console to install pyodbc.
Then, the import should work.
I was getting exactly the same issue with installing using pip, but after a while of being stuck I remembered that running CMD as administrator does the trick many times -- and it did
I wanted to change my python compiler to "newer" one (within one project) and use some additional packages with conda. After the installation all my packages worked fine and I could use the console, however matplotlib.pyplot fails to import since then. And throws the following error: app = QtGui.QApplication([" "])
AttributeError: module 'PyQt5.QtGui' has no attribute 'QApplication'
After doing some research on this I found this one: link
It is suggesting to change inputhooks.py (on line 513 and change GUI_QT:enable_qt4 to GUI_QT: enable_qt5 4 to 5)
As it is a company machine, I can't have admin rights to overwrite things within PyCharm.
Can you recommend a better solution to avoid this?
Why is this popping up?

Also I tried to install the newer version of pyqt but that didn't fix the problem.
In the same time
Within pydev the interactiveshell.py fails as well. with the following error message:self.showtraceback(running_compiled_code=True)
TypeError: showtraceback() got an unexpected keyword argument 'running_compiled_code'
I understand it gets an argument which it is not expecting. I did some research on this one as well and some could fix it by deleting a stale a corresponding .pyc file (I couldn't find one at the same location as the initial file only interactiveshell.py)
Below this blog regarding pydev the conversation never went further
https://github.com/ipython/ipython/issues/10687
Is there a way to fix it?
I am kind of new to Python and don't quite understand the heart of it at this depth so any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Anna
For anyone having the same issue, I have solved this problem by switching to qt and pyqt 4. To do so, follow the following procedure:
conda remove qt
conda install qt=4
conda install -c anaconda pyqt=4.11.4
conda install matplotlib --no-update-dependencies
If you are not using a virtual environment, you might also have to remove anaconda navigator before installing new packages:
conda uninstall anaconda-navigator
At the beginning of your program, switch matplotlib backend:
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
plt.switch_backend('Qt4Agg')
Inspired by this solution.
After updating PyCharm all issues seem to have been resolved. (I was using versin 2017.1)
The show traceback error was due to pydev, and the new release fixes it.
As well as the GUI problem.
I was able to solve it by finding the file, and both messages disappeared, and matplotlib seems to work fine again.
Under this folder (I named my environment py35):
C:\Users\myusername\AppData\Local\Continuum\anaconda3\envs\py35\Lib\site-packages\IPython\core__pycache__
I found the file: interactiveshell.cpython-35.pyc and deleted it -
(This solves the problem only on Python 3.5)

I’m trying to use sklearn in pycharm. When importing sklearn I get an error that reads “Import error: No module named sklearn”
The project interpreter in pycharm is set to 2.7.10 (/anaconda/bin/python.app), which should be the right one.
Under default preferenes, project interpreter, I see all of anacondas packages. I've double clicked and installed the packages scikit learn and sklearn. I still receive the “Import error: No module named sklearn”
Does anyone know how to solve this problem?
To make sure you have Scikit-learn package installed on your PyCharm IDE, go to File Menu>Settings and search for Interpreter. Select Project Interpreter, and if you dont see Scikit-learn in the list of packages, click the + sign on the right end. It brings us another window with a search bar, where you can type 'Scikit-learn' and install (see screenshots). I hope this helps.
Screenshots:
,
please notice that, in the packages search 'Scikit-learn', instead 'sklearn'
go to terminal- type python -m pip install scikit-learn
then hit enter.
give it some seconds. It will be done.
Sample Image
Double check your python interpreter. Check whether you have select correct interpreter at the first when you create the project.
Or else you can check your interpreter from the project view under External Libraries.
In your case if you didn't select 2.7.10 (/anaconda/bin/python.app) as your interpreter for the project at the beginning still the program give the same error Import error: No module named sklearn.
Same error occurs to me i have fixed by selecting File Menu-> Default Settings-> Project Interpreter -> Press + button and type 'sklearn' Press install button. Installation will be done in 10 to 20 seconds.
If issue not resolved please check you PyCharm Interpreter path. Sometimes your machine have Python 2.7 and Python 3.6 both installed and there may be some conflict by choosing one.
I had exactly the same problem. I'm using PyCharm with Anaconda3 & Python 3.7, and I've installed other packages into/via PyCharms just fine (such as numpy, scipy, and others). But although scikit-learn (which contains sklearn, that was initially confusing) seems fully installed on my system, including "import sklearn" working outside of PyCharm, I could not get the "import sklearn" to succeed inside PyCharm.
I finally got a python-expert friend to help me. He verified everything was correctly installed on my system and verified that PyCharm was somehow messing up.
We finally determined that the venv (virtual environment) was not including scikit-learn (sklearn) even though I had imported it properly into the Project Interpreter in PyCharms.
Solution: Delete and recreate the VENV, specifically ticking the box Inherit Global Site Packages
See here: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/pycharm/creating-virtual-environment.html
for how to create a new virtual environment and get to that parameter.
SOLVED:
reinstalled Python 3.7.9 (not the latet)
installed numpy 1.17.5 (not the latest)
installed scikit-learn (latest)
sklearn works now!
For Mac OS:
PyCharm --> Preferences --> Project Interpreter --> Double Click on pip (a new window will open with search option) --> mention 'Scikit-learn' on the search bar --> Install Packages --> Once installed, close that new window --> OK on the existing window
and you are done.
