My system doesn't seem to be willing to find the mysql module. After trying allot I still get the Modulenotfound Error: No module named mysql.
This is what I've done so far:
1.
pip install mysqlclient
2.
`pip install mysql-connector`
pip install mysql-connector-python
This didn't seem to work so I did the following:
pip install -U setuptools
but this also didn't seem to work.
Furthermore, my system can't seem to find mysql-connector-python-rf
Any guesses on what might go wrong here?
You could be installing those packages in a different interpreter than the one you're using to run your script, the best way IMO to avoid these kind of errors is by using a virtual environment.
To set up a venv, go to your projects folder and execute the following:
python -m venv ./env
And then:
(Windows)
./env/Scripts/activate
Or if you're on linux:
source ./env/bin/activate
Then you should reinstall every dependence and run your script with the virtual environment activated

I am familiar with using pip to install Python packages but there is no way to install it in the environment I am working in. We have to call the directory with python.exe to run any Python code. Therefore, it is impossible to use pip install because, since there is no python, there is no pip. How could we install packages without using pip or installing pip via the python.exe file? Here is an image of the error:
Packages like pip can be executed from the python executable using python.exe -m pip install openpyxl. If you don't have sufficient firewall permissions (as you mentioned high security) you may not be able to connect to the package servers, which you would need to discuss with admin.
I am doing this project where i need to install a package called Twint.
I want to install this package and use it's commands in my VS Code.
What happends when i for example type this in my Windows CMD?
pip3 install --user --upgrade git+https://github.com/twintproject/twint.git#origin/master#egg=twint
Because i can't type this in my VS code terminal, where i usually install packages with pip.
It will return an error that says ERROR: Cannot find command 'git' - do you have 'git' installed and in your PATH?''
Now if i run this in my Windows Command it seems that i can't directly import the package in VS code?
Can anyone help me out with this confusion, where does the files get stored and how do i create good habbits around installing packages?
Hope someone understands what im struggeling with here.

It is often the case that computers have more than one version of python installed and that editors like VS code use a different version than pip uses on the command line. pip installs packages where the version of python it is linked to expects them to be, but VScode doesn't know to look there.
It sounds like you have git installed where pip installs things, so you can upgrade from the command line without issue, but there's no installation of git where VScode is looking, so there's nothing to upgrade.
You either need to find where pip installs things and add it to the $PATH VScode uses, or try running a variation of python -m pip install --user git (specifying a specific url, or other things, as needed) from within VScode, which will ensure the package gets installed in a place that VScode looks for packages.
Download and Install git in your windows from here:
https://git-scm.com/download/win
Then add its installation bin path to your windows's environment path. Then you will find the git command at the command prompt globally.
This may solve you problem.
Hope everyone is doing fine :)
I'm new to python, so I'm having trouble cause I've installed anaconda (for machine learning) and now, my local projects in VS Code with python, don't find modules installed from pip install.
I've searched online and I guess it has something to do with the path... Here's the path when I install the module:
user_stuff.../opt/anaconda3/lib/python3.9/site-packages
I want to install modules into my project on desktop, here's the path:
user_stuff.../Desktop/python-project
I keep getting this error when trying to import:
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'qrcode'
How do I change this? It's really frustrating :(
I guess your pip is referring to the pip provided by the system, it should be now referring to the pip provided by anaconda.
$ which pip
$ alias pip="/Users/my-username/anaconda3/bin/pip"
$ pip install qrcode
Do you use jupyter notebook in vs code? I prefer it because there you can easily select the environment you are using. And if you want to pip install anything in a environment you have to first activate it in the console with conda activate env name
I have created a virtual environment on which I ran the following command to install Zeep (I am on macOS Big Sur):
pip3 install zeep
To verify if I have correctly installed it I ran:
pip3 freeze
And I can see in the list :
zeep==4.0.0
However, when I run my script using flask run I get the following error:
I have flask installed and activated my virtualenv:
What I don't understand is that when I go directly on python from the command line it does import zeep :
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
Two things come to my mind with this problem.
Make sure the venv is activated
source /venv/bin/activate
Make sure flask is installed after activating the venv.
pip install Flask
You are running in an Anaconda/Conda virtual environment, this can be seen from your command prompt. Conda is a package management platform like, but separate to, Pip.
When you install a package with Pip it is not available in an Anaconda virtual environment.
Also you need to take note of where you are actually installing packages to when you run pip. If you run pip outside of a virtual environment then it is going to install packages into your system Python which is not a good thing.
I have flask installed and activated my virtualenv:
How are you activating the virtual environment? Your third screenshot shows the Anaconda installation of Python.
I'm using the most recent versions of all software (Django, Python, virtualenv, MySQLdb) and I can't get this to work. When I run "import MySQLdb" in the python prompt from outside of the virtualenv, it works, inside it says "ImportError: No module named MySQLdb".
I'm trying to learn Python and Linux web development. I know that it's easiest to use SQLLite, but I want to learn how to develop larger-scale applications comparable to what I can do in .NET. I've read every blog post on Google and every post here on StackOverflow and they all suggest that I run "sudo pip install mysql-python" but it just says "Requirement already satisfied: mysql-python in /usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7"
Any help would be appreciated! I'm stuck over here and don't want to throw in the towel and just go back to doing this on Microsoft technologies because I can't even get a basic dev environment up and running.
If you have created the virtualenv with the --no-site-packages switch (the default), then system-wide installed additions such as MySQLdb are not included in the virtual environment packages.
You need to install MySQLdb with the pip command installed with the virtualenv. Either activate the virtualenv with the bin/activate script, or use bin/pip from within the virtualenv to install the MySQLdb library locally as well.
Alternatively, create a new virtualenv with system site-packages included by using the --system-site-package switch.
source $ENV_PATH/bin/activate
pip uninstall MySQL-python
pip install MySQL-python
this worked for me.
I went through same problem, but using pip from virtualenv didn't solve the problem as I got this error
error: could not delete '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/_mysql.so': Permission denied
Earlier I had installed the package by sudo pip install mysql-python
To solve, copy files /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/MySQL_python-1.2.5-py2.7.egg-info and /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/_mysql* to ~/v/lib/python-2.7/site-packages and include /usr/local/mysql/lib in DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH env variable.
For the second step I am doing export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/mysql/lib in ~/.profile
