I work on Ubuntu 14. I install python3 and pip3.
When I try to use pip3, I have this error
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pip3", line 6, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 70, i
n <module>
import packaging.version
ImportError: No module named 'packaging'
Does someone know what is the issue?
Many thanks
First update your pip version itself. You can take a look at this answer
pip3 install --upgrade pip
And then try to install packaging, if its not already installed by now.
pip3 install packaging
I recently had the same error. Unfortunately none of the other answers solved my problem. Finally installing the following package resolved my issue:
sudo apt install python3-packaging
For older versions of Python you may need to adjust the command:
sudo apt install python-packaging
If I understand well, the issue that causes confusion in other's replies is that you have an error while running pip itself, which prevents self-updates of pip or installation of the missing package.
As requested, please state exactly how you installed Python 3 and pip. Ubuntu 14 does not come with Python 3.5.
For diagnosis, please give the output of
which python3
that is probably /usr/bin/python3 and refers to the system-wide python3 while your pip is located in /usr/local/bin/pip3.
Suggested solution: Uninstall system pip with apt-get remove python3-pip and try again with either pip3 or python3.5 -m pip.
I got this issue and I solved it by getting the path to my python module on my virtualenv
python3.7 -c 'import sys; print(sys.path)'
Then I cloned github repository for Packaging
in one of the directory..
That's about it
I tried all of the above.
I had to manually add the libraries to the pyinstaller command as data:
.\pyinstaller.exe -F --add-data ".\venv\Lib\site-packages\packaging;packaging" --add-data ".\venv\Lib\site-packages\webdriver_manager;webdriver_manager" --onefile .\departed_shipments.py
I have installed pip for python 3.6 on Ubuntu 14. After I run
sudo apt-get install python3-pip
to install pip3, it works very well. However, after installation, when I am trying to run
pip3 install packagename
to install a new package, something strange occurs:
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources.py", line 1479, in <module>
register_loader-type(importlib_bootstrap.SourceFileLoader, DefaultProvider)
AttributeError: module "importlib._bootstrap" has no attribute "SourceFileLoader"
It seems that I did nothing wrong, and I really cannot figure out the reason.
If you're getting this error running pip install dotenv, this is because the package is called python-dotenv not dotenv.
This worked for me:
sudo pip install python-dotenv
Faced the same problem. I think this is because python3.6 and pip3 were installed from different sources.
I suggest using python's inbuilt facility to install pip i.e
python3 -m ensurepip --upgrade
This should install pip3 and pip3.x where x in python3.x.
Same works for python2 also.
Tried to install Tensorflow in venv on Windows 10 machine with python 3.8 and got the same issue.
What helped for me was:
pip install setuptools --upgrade
I had the same problem on my ubuntu 18.04 with python 3.6. None of the above methods helped, but this one solved the problem:
pip3 uninstall setuptools
I had the same error whatever I asked to pip. I gave a look to this page: https://packaging.python.org/tutorials/installing-packages/
That line is the one that solved my problem:
python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
pip install setuptools --upgrade
This command solved my issue. It fixed my problem.
When updating from python3.4 to python3.6 on ubuntu 14.04. The following solved me:
wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -O - | python3
If you face this issue in anaconda environment, simply upgrade setuptools using the following:
conda install -c conda-forge setuptools
That's because you are using an old version of setuptools, check up this issue.
I met the same problem, this is the key:
curl -sS https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3
I had faced the same issue on Ubuntu 19.10 and now I upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04 and faced the issue again. This issue is due to broken pip3. So whenever you enter pip3 and hit enter it will show the same error. So instead of using "pip3 uninstall setuptools" use the below code
python3 -m pip uninstall setuptools
It resolved my issue 3rd time
I am facing the same problem, which is solved by downloading the source files of the setuptools and installing the module manually.
The setuptools can be downloaded here:
https://pypi.org/project/setuptools/
After downloading, unzip the package first, then cd to the directory and run
python setup.py install --user
For me the error happened while trying to create a virtual env with python 3.8:
sudo virtualenv venv -ppython3.8
And after trying all the answers here, finally the problem solved by installing the new version of virtualenv (20.0.7):
sudo pip3 install virtualenv
I encountered this error message triggered by a slightly different situation which I'll mention here for anyone who finds this.
This same error also occurs when installing the distribute Python package (which is currently just a compatibility layer in front of setuptools) in Python 3.6 or newer.
In my specific situation I discovered this as I was using pyzmail which has been somewhat abandoned and depends on distribute.

I had the same issue when I tried to install the Slate package in Windows 10, Python 3.7.4 version:
AttributeError: module 'importlib._bootstrap' has no attribute 'SourceFileLoader'
The instruction that generated the error:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>python -m pip install slate
The instruction that worked:
C:\WINDOWS\system32>python -m pip install https://github.com/timClicks/slate/archive/master.zip
I had the same problem with my cloud computer. If all above didn't work for you don't worry. Here's how I resolved it:
Download the pip file (pip-version.tar.gz) from:
https://pypi.org/project/pip/#files
For cloud, use this
curl https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/8e/76/66066b7bc71817238924c7e4b448abdb17eb0c92d645769c223f9ace478f/pip-20.0.2.tar.gz --output pip.tar.gz
Extract the content of the file and cd into the directory.
Run the following in the directory
python3 setup.py install --user
You should have pip3 working without errors.
pip3 install setuptools --upgrade
This also cured the issue on Python 3.9 running on Windows 10 and even on a custom Docker image.
I was having the same issue while using docker-compose. This exact error can be caused by not being the root user. Running the same commands with sudo fixed it for me. I don't not have setup-tools installed, and I'm running pip3. My issue was that IntelliJ didn't have sudo rights, so i had to do it from the terminal.
Above solutions were not working in my case for Ubuntu 20
If you run the following command:
sudo apt install python3-setuptools
Then you might get the result:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
python3-setuptools is already the newest version (45.2.0-1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
But to actually solve it and re-install setuptools try following commands:
sudo apt download python3-setuptools
sudo dpkg -i python3-setuptools_45.2.0-1_all.deb
Note: Change the version of the python package that is downloaded

Mine looked pretty similar, but for some reason I had a python installation in my home directory .local folder.
I did some of the other answers in this thread to ensure I had good local copy of python, then did:
rm -rf ~/.local
Just go inside the /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/, first copy setuptools file somewhere and then delete the setuptools. Everything will be okay for deleting you can use:
sudo rm -r setuptools
for copying
sudo cp -r setuptools /...Desktop/
After that if it gives errors just:
sudo pip3 install setuptools==3.8.1
to download again.

Any ideas?
You can instead use the mysqlclient package as a drop-in replacement for MySQL-python. It is a fork of MySQL-python with added support for Python 3.
I had luck with simply
pip install mysqlclient
in my python3.4 virtualenv after
sudo apt-get install python3-dev libmysqlclient-dev
which is obviously specific to ubuntu/debian, but I just wanted to share my success :)
In Python 3, ConfigParser has been renamed to configparser for PEP 8 compliance. It looks like the package you are installing does not support Python 3.
Here is a code that should work in both Python 2.x and 3.x
Obviously you will need the six module, but it's almost impossible to write modules that work in both versions without six.
try:
import configparser
except:
from six.moves import configparser
pip install configparser
sudo cp /usr/lib/python3.6/configparser.py /usr/lib/python3.6/ConfigParser.py
Then try to install the MYSQL-python again.
That Worked for me
MySQL-python is not supported on python3 instead of this you can use mysqlclient
If you are on fedora/centos/Red Hat install following package
yum install python3-devel
pip install mysqlclient
Additional info:
Python 2x
import ConfigParser
Python 3x
import configparser
Compatibility of Python 2/3 for configparser can be solved simply by six library
from six.moves import configparser
If you are using CentOS, then you need to use
yum install python34-devel.x86_64
yum groupinstall -y 'development tools'
pip3 install mysql-connector
pip install mysqlclient
I was having the same problem. Turns out, I needed to install python3 devel on my centos. First, you need to search for the package that is compatible with your system.
yum search python3 | grep devel
Then, install the package as:
yum install -y python3-devel.x86_64
Then, install mysqlclient from pip
pip install mysqlclient
Do pip3 install PyMySQL and then pip3 install mysqlclient.
Worked for me
I got further with Valeres answer:
pip install configparser
sudo cp /usr/lib/python3.6/configparser.py /usr/lib/python3.6/ConfigParser.py
Then try to install the MYSQL-python again. That Worked for me
I would suggest to link the file instead of copy it. It is save to update. I linked the file to /usr/lib/python3/ directory.
For me the following command worked:
sudo python3 -m pip install mysql-connector
Try this solution which worked fine for me.
Basically it's to reinstall/upgrade to latest version of mysql from brew, and then installing mysqlclient or MySQL-Python from global pip3 instead of virtualenv pip3.
Then accessing the virtualenv and successfully install mysqlclient or MySQL-Python.
I still have this issue, so I go to /usr/lib/python3.8 and type as sudoer:
cp configparser.py ConfigParser.py
You may have another python version than 3.8.
Following #MaciejNg I tried making a copy, which didn't work:
sudo cp ./env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/configparser.py ./env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ConfigParser.py
Because configparser.py and ConfigParser.py are identical, I renamed the file:
sudo mv ./env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/configparser.py ./env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/ConfigParser.py
how about checking the version of Python you are using first.
import six
if six.PY2:
import ConfigParser as configparser
else:
import configparser
I run kali linux- Rolling and I came across this problem ,when I tried running cupp.py in the terminal, after updating to python 3.6.0. After some research and trial I found that changing ConfigParser to configparser worked for me but then I came across another issue.
config = configparser.configparser()
AttributeError: module 'configparser' has no attribute 'configparser'
After a bit more research I realised that for python 3 ConfigParser is changed to configparser but note that it has an attribute ConfigParser().
I was getting the same error on Mac OS 10, Python 3.7.6 & Django 2.2.7. I want to use this opportunity to share what worked for me after trying out numerous solutions.
Steps
Installed Connector/Python 8.0.20 for Mac OS from link
Copy current dependencies into requirements.txt file, deactivated the current virtual env, and deleted it using;
create the file if not already created with; touch requirements.txt
copy dependency to file; python -m pip3 freeze > requirements.txt
deactivate and delete current virtual env; deactivate && rm -rf <virtual-env-name>
Created another virtual env and activated it using; python -m venv <virtual-env-name> && source <virtual-env-name>/bin/activate
Install previous dependencies using; python -m pip3 install -r requirements.txt
base on your OS is centos use python3
if you don't known where is configparser.py or ConfigParser.py
pip3 install configparser
find / -name "configparser.py"
cd /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages(base on your environment )
cp configparser.py ConfigParser.py
solved the issue
Kindly to see what is /usr/bin/python pointing to
if it is pointing to python3 or higher change to python2.7
This should solve the issue.
I was getting install error for all the python packages. Abe Karplus's solution & discussion gave me the hint as to what could be the problem.
Then I recalled that I had manually changed the /usr/bin/python from python2.7 to /usr/bin/python3.5, which actually was causing the issue. Once I reverted the same. It got solved.
This worked for me
cp /usr/local/lib/python3.5/configparser.py /usr/local/lib/python3.5/ConfigParser.py
I'm trying to get a program called hangoutsbot
to work on my linux server. I'm currently using a digital ocean server. However, every time I try to run the script it gives me an error that says:
ImportError: No module named 'appdirs'
I'm not sure what to do here. I've already tried installing appdirs from npm to no avail. This script works fine on my mac, however it doesn't seem to want to run on my linux server. Any help would be appreciated.
I ran across the same problem after solving the "missing pyparsing module" bug over here. I then started getting this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 74, in <module>
import appdirs
ImportError: No module named appdirs
I then used the manual installation steps there to find the missing package on pypi.python.org and came up with this manual installation sequence:
wget https://pypi.python.org/packages/48/69/d87c60746b393309ca30761f8e2b49473d43450b150cb08f3c6df5c11be5/appdirs-1.4.3.tar.gz
gunzip appdirs-1.4.3.tar.gz
tar -xvf appdirs-1.4.3.tar
cd appdirs-1.4.3
sudo python setup.py install
And that fixed it!
For some reason your pipenv installation is not completely done, maybe if you just uninstall and install all missing packages again, it can works. For example, if you are using a MAC:
sudo pip uninstall <missing packages> and after sudo pip install <missing packages>
In this specific case:
sudo pip uninstall appdirs and sudo pip install appdirs
When you run hangoutsbot you'll need to specifically call the python version that has the modules installed. The following worked for me and I had python3.4 and python3.5 installed.
python3.5 hangoutsbot/hangoutsbot.py -d
I had this issue on Ubuntu 14.04 , which ships with a really old version of pip. I was using python 2.7. Upgrading to a newer version of pip with "pip install --upgrade pip" solved this issue for me. (I did this within my virtualenv, but could be needed at the system level depending on what you are trying to do.)
This was where I discovered the solution:

I am trying to pip install the MySQL-python package, but I get an ImportError.
