I tried to use the Coursera course downloader from here and it worked for few courses but not all. They have recommended to use Python3.X. So I uninstalled Anaconda (version 2) from my Mac and installed Python3.5.1 from Python's website but still the course downloaders did not work as it was using default Python 2.7.
So I deleted Python from /usr/local/lib and now nothing is working. When I do which python it shows ``usr/local/bin/pythonand bothpythonandpython3` runs.
But when I do pip install coursera it throws error as follows:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/pip", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
ImportError: No module named pkg_resources
And when I do sudo easy_install pip, I get the following error.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/easy_install", line 5, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
ImportError: No module named pkg_resources
try Homebrew http://brew.sh/
brew install python3
curl bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | python3
Your Mac should have Python 2 and Python 3 installed by default. in the terminal "python" will launch Python2, "python3" will launch Python3. With Anaconda you could have just kept the Python 2 version and created an environment for Python 3, http://conda.pydata.org/docs/using/envs.html#managing-environments.
This is the solution you will most likely need, No module named pkg_resources. Setuptools is causing the issue and you will need to wget ez_setup.py. Reinstalling Anaconda will save you a lot of time and pain.

I don't know much about python and I need help to install a python software.
I am using linux mint 12.8.
Since I have tried many things I think I have several versions of python installed (3.5 and 3.7 I think...).
When I run setup.py install I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/CommandNotFound/CommandNotFound.py", line 7, in <module>
import dbm.gnu as gdbm
File "/home/zach/10_Soft/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/dbm/gnu.py", line 3, in <module>
from _gdbm import *
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_gdbm'
I tried to install python3.5-gdbm (which appears to be up to date) and python3.7-gdbm (which is not found).
They both seem to be virtual packages of the same package python3-gdbm. I don't really know what to do with this information however...
Do you know what I should do?
I was able to solve this issue using this command:
sudo cp /usr/lib/python3.5/lib-dynload/_gdbm.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so /usr/lib/python3.7/lib-dynload/_gdbm.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
I wanted to use turicreate library which doesn't support python 3.8 yet. So tried downgrading python to 3.7 using
downgrade python
But now I cant use pip. Even a simple command using pip like,
pip --version
gives me an error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/pip", line 6, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'
I have already tried downgrading pip to 19.0.3.
Also tried uninstalling and reinstalling both packages.
What can I possibly do? I use Arch Linux btw.
Instead of downgrading python for the whole OS, may be you should try using a downgraded python version for just your project.
Try using a virtual environment and use it to create a dev environment with python 3.7.
Recently, when I use pip to install python modules, I will get an error saying that the module has not been downloaded when I run it in the IDLE. However, when I run the same script in the terminal, it works fine. What is this error and how can I solve it?
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#8>", line 1, in <module>
import gspread
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gspread'
Probably you have different versions of python installed.
The version you used pip to install new modules is different from the version you access with IDLE.
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/xattr-2.7", line 7, in <module>
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
ImportError: No module named pkg_resources
My PYTHONPATH contains /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages, the site-packages folder indeed contains the pkg_resources folder. I tried everything and have spent hours searching stack overflow. I even reinstalled python and setuptools, but nothing seems to work.
The command I am using to install Java - brew cask install java
I guess I was so lost trying to install it with brew, that I forgot that I could download the dmg file from the Oracle website and install it. I still can't figure out the issue with pkg_resources though.
I tried to install redis-py lib via pip. It was installed successfully, but when I tried to import redis in python3 shell, I got the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'redis'
In python2 it gets imported with no errors.
I have tried all three pip, pip2, pip3 on my machine (ubuntu 17.10). Also I have python3.6 installed. I also tried easy_install
You are installing it in Python 2.7 (you have probably already know this). If python3.6 brings up the correct Python version on your system then this should work for you:
python3.6 -m pip install redis
If you are unsure what each pip version brings up you can use the which command to list the file path. This will give you a good indication as to where to look.
Also pip3.6 install redis might work but is not as secure as the above
