The folder Python37\site-packages\scipy\sparse\linalg\isolve\ inside Scipy package in Python has the following file: _iterative.cp37-win_amd64.pyd.
When I run a Python file, I get the following error :-
File "C:\......\Python37\site-packages\scipy\sparse\linalg\isolve\iterative.py", line 10, in <module>
from . import _iterative
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found
(I am new to Python on Windows)
As I cannot comment due to a lack of reputation:
Have you installed scypy with all the mentioned dependencies on their website?
python -m pip install --user numpy scipy matplotlib ipython jupyter pandas sympy nose
(Taken from https://www.scipy.org/install.html)
This is how I was able to resolve the issue (on Windows) :-
1. I uninstalled Python using python.exe program.
2. Installed anaconda for Windows - it installs python along with dependencies and many common libraries.

I'm using python 3.6 and attempting to import win32com.client as win32 to be able to send an email with outlook but keep getting the above import error.
I've installed both pywin32 and pypiwin32 and run the postinstall script (did see it say "You do not have the permissions to install COM objects.)
I see the pywintpyes36.dll and pyhoncom36.dll in the location I'm running the script out of.
I've done a bit of searching and can't seem to find what I'm missing. Is it the fact that I was unable to install the COM objects? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
[EDIT]
I'm working out of a venv, and have installed both libraries using py -m pip install pywin32 and py -m install pypiwin32. I verified that I see the installation in the "site-packages" folder within my venv.
my imports:
import sys
sys.path.append("C:\path\venv\Lib\site-packages")
import tkinter as tk
import getpass
import os.path
import time
import os
import win32com.client as win32
import sqlite3
from datetime import datetime
from functools import partial
I have the sys.path.append there otherwise the module is not found at all.
Full error message:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\path\program.py", line 8, in <module>
import win32com.client as win32
File "C:\path\venv\Lib\site-packages\win32com\__init__.py", line 5, in <module>
from win32 import win32api
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.
This may not be directly relevant for the OP, but may be of help to others who end up here based on the title.
Summary
Possible workaround for conda environments with Python>=3.8:
DO NOT pip install pywin32, but
DO conda install pywin32 (e.g. from conda-forge)
Details
I encountered the following error in a freshly created (Mini-)Conda environment with Python 3.9 on windows 10, after installing pywin32 via pip:
ImportError: DLL load failed while importing win32file: The specified module could not be found.
The pywin32 installation instructions mention this type of issue explicitly, and there are several related issues.
However, in my case something else was going on.
Here are some interesting observations:
I have numerous other, pre-existing, conda environments, with python versions ranging from 2.7 to 3.8, and corresponding pywin32 versions, in which the issue does not arise (just verified this).
All these environments have their own pywintypesXX.dll etc. yet they coexist peacefully.
There is no pywintypesXX.dll in my system32 folder.
I have never needed to run the pywin32_postinstall script, yet.
As it turns out, on my system, the import error only arises if I do a pip install pywin32 in a conda environment with Python>=3.8. The issue does not arise for Python 3.7 (nor for 2.7).
In a Python>=3.8 conda environment, conda install pywin32 fixed the issue (instead of using pip).
Apparently Python 3.8 changed the way dll files are found. This change has been incorporated in pywin32, but can still cause trouble if you mix conda and pip.

I'm using a Kubernetes inventory builder script found here: https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/kubespray/blob/master/contrib/inventory_builder/inventory.py
On line 36, the ruamel YML library is imported using the code from ruamel.yaml import YAML. This library can be found here: https://pypi.org/project/ruamel.yaml/
On my OSX device (Mojave 10.14.3), if I run pip list, I can clearly see the most up to date version of ruamel.yaml:
If I run pip show ruamel.yaml, I get the following output:
I'm running the script with this command: CONFIG_FILE=inventory/mycluster/hosts.ini python3 contrib/inventory_builder/inventory.py 10.0.0.1 10.0.0.2 10.0.0.4 10.0.0.5
Bizarrely, it returns the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "contrib/inventory_builder/inventory.py", line 36, in <module>
from ruamel.yaml import YAML
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ruamel'
I have very little experience with Python, so don't understand how this could be failing. Have I installed the library incorrectly or something? From the documentation on the ruamel.yml project page, it looks like the script is calling the library as it should be.
Thanks in advance
In my case, I was installing this with pip3 install ruamel.yaml, and it was puting the package in /usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/, but the python3 binary on the machine was pinned to Python 3.7, so trying to import that module was sending the ModuleNotFoundError message.
What helped to fix this, was to install the module with python3 -m pip install ruamel.yaml, running pip via the python3 binary makes sure it runs on the same version, in this case 3.7, and gets installed via the correct version number site-packages.
pip is set to point to the Python 2 installation. To install the library under Python 3, do pip3 install ruamel.yml.
you're using python 3 and want to use the package that is with python 2. Go to the directory where your python 3 is, navigate to Scripts and use the pip in there to install the needed library.
This helped me (adding version number to python):
CONFIG_FILE=inventory/mycluster/hosts.yaml python3.6 contrib/inventory_builder/inventory.py ${IPS[#]}
[python 3.10.x].
There is no package called ruamel.yaml
what worked is pip install ruamel-yaml
I need to use netcdf but do not have install permission for python modules. I have downloaded netcdf-0.1.2.tar.gz from here: https://pypi.python.org/simple/netcdf/ and unzipped the tar ball. I have been following this stack overflow post in an attempt to use the module but have had no luck so far:
(Python) Use a library locally instead of installing it
here is what I have tried:
Installing virtualenv:
I do not have permission to do this
python setup.py install -- user:
again, I don't have permission
running my script with netcdf as my current working directory:
I tried this as well, here are the issues I have run into:
first I went into netcdf-0.1.2 and made a new file called asdf.py
which contains the following:
import netcdf
print("testing")
running python asdf.py gives the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "asdf.py", line 1, in <module>
import netcdf
File "/.../Downloads/netcdf-0.1.2/netcdf/__init__.py", line 1, in <module>
from netcdf import *
File "/.../Downloads/netcdf-0.1.2/netcdf/netcdf.py", line 1, in <module>
from netCDF4 import Dataset, numpy
ImportError: No module named netCDF4
I'm not sure how to fix this error, any help would be greatly appreciated
in case this is somehow relevant, the version of Linux I am using is 3.2.0-23-generic
also I have numpy installed already
Easest would be to install Anaconda or Miniconda with your user rights.
Anaconda already as netCDF4installed. In case of Miniconda install with:
conda install netcdf4
If you have Python 3 installed, then you will have the venv package in the standard library, so you do not need "virtualenv" to be installed for you separately (as would be the case with Python 2). Instead use python3 -mvenv , in a similar way to how you would use virtualenv, for example:
python3 -mvenv /path/to/my_venv
or to include any non-standard packages already installed on the system:
python3 -mvenv --system-site-packages /path/to/my_venv
After that, you should be able to activate the environment and pip install packages, e.g.
source /path/to/my_venv/bin/activate # for csh use activate.csh instead
pip install netCDF4
Remember to source the activate script at run time as well as installation time:
source /path/to/my_venv/bin/activate
python
and you should then find that in your python session you have the netCDF4 package available, e.g.
import netCDF4
my_dataset = netCDF4.Dataset('myfile.nc')
Of course, substitute the actual path in place of /path/to/my_venv above.
None of this requires any root privileges.
(And as someone else has suggested, another option for you is to use conda.)
I'd also like to highlight that the package is imported using capitals
import netCDF4 as nc
This might not matter on a mac, but for Windows it is key.
I was following this guide https://realpython.com/blog/python/setting-up-a-simple-ocr-server/ and got to the part where I run cli.py python flask_server/cli.py but I get
python cli.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "cli.py", line 3, in <module>
import pytesseract
ImportError: No module named pytesseract
How can I solve this ?
I also saw that I have multiple versions of python. I have linux-kali installed with the latest updates.
Something else: he runs the command like python flask_server/cli.py- where is that flask_server located ? I simply ran it like python cli.py(I was in some directory in which I created the file).
Python import errors usually boils down to one of those three cases (whether is is modules you developed; or modules distributed as packages):
You did no install the required package. Googling pytesseracttells me its an OCR that is distributed and installable using Python package manager tool pip by running pip install pytesseract in your favorite shell.
You did install the package, but is is not in your python path.
(Less often) You did install the package, and it is in your python path, but you used a name already in user by Python, and the two are conflicting.
In your case, I strongly think this is the first one. Case 2. and 3. can be assessed by calling python -v your_script.pyas described in this answer.
I had a similar error. So I hope to help people with this kind of problems.
In my case,
I tried to run python code using pytesseract lib on Raspberry pi 3.
$ pip install pillow
$ pip install pytesseract
(followed by https://www.pyimagesearch.com/2017/07/10/using-tesseract-ocr-python/)
and then, I made an example.py to test.
example.py
try:
import Image
except ImportError:
from PIL import Image
from pytesseract import *
print(pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open('YOUR_IMAGE_PATH')))
and then, when I run this code, I got below error like you.
ImportError: No module named pytesseract
After I saw the #Bertrand Caron's answer, I found a solution.
My problem was package library path.
I also have multiple versions of python, 2.7 and 3.5, like a writer.
When I run command $python --version on linux, the result is Python 2.7.13.
In my case, when I installed a pytesseract package,
it was stored in "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pytesseract".
And When I ran $python -v example.py, I found the referenced packages path hadn't been same with upper pytesseract package directory.
cf.
installed pytesseract path : /usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pytesseract
actual referenced lib path, when running : /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/
So, I copied pytesseract, located in "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pytesseract" to "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/"
Then, Solved!
In my case, I was running it in Jupyter so I used this command,
! pip install --user pytesseract
But I forgot to restart the kernal. You need to restart the kernal after installing the pakcage
I had the same error. My solution is
$ pip3 install pytesseract
since I have python 2 and python 3 installed together.
Please only respond to this post if you use Python on Windows, rather than Mac or Linux.
Error message:
>>> import numpy
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "stdin", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'numpy'
Questions:
Regarding windows 7, python 3.4.3 and numpy-1.9.2, are there any
conflicts that would prevent these from working together?
Into which directory (please write out the complete directory path
starting with "C:") should I extract the contents of the numpy zip
file?
What is the exact command that I need to type into python command
prompt in order to install numpy?
Thanks in advance for your assistance
I was also facing this issue where in I tried using
import numpy
But it has given me error "ImportError: No module named 'numpy'"
I installed numpy using "C:\user>python -mpip install numpy" and it was successfully installed.
However I was again getting the same error
Then I checked that the path where in numpy was intalled was not listed in
import sys
print(sys.path)
Then I appended my path wherein numpy was installed using ">>> sys.path.append(r"C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages").
The above command worked fine, still problem not resolved then I restarted my python session again.
Finally it worked..!!!!(As after every append we have to restart our python session).
1) No there isn't.
2) You can use pip. pip install numpy
If you don't have pip installed, install it, its the most often used way of installing python packages. Yes it is possible to do under windows.
3) Once you have the python command prompt, you already have python installed.
1) no
2) It doesn't actually matter as pip or the installer will figure that out for you. However, just so you know, pip or whatever will install numpy into your site-packages folder.
3) I recommend downloading the NumPy installer from SourceForge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.9.2/
Then you don't have to worry about having the right compiler installed. However, if you want to use pip, then you'll need to install the appropriate compiler. This is documented at the following locations:
Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 3.4
https://matthew-brett.github.io/pydagogue/python_msvc.html
I'm not even close to an expert on Python. That said, I like the notion of "keep it simple." I chose to install a Python distribution that already includes numpy. Specifially I installed Python(x,y). Everything seems to be working just fine right after install. I appreciate all those who commented on my question. Thanks
