Import Error: No module named requests

Question

I know there are many posts on this, and I\'ve tried using the solutions provided, but to no avail. I tried pip install requests and pip install requests

Answer 1

You installed requests into a different Python installation. The /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages is the site-packages directory for the Mac OS X /usr/bin/python installation.

PyCharm is not currently configured to use that Python installation; check what Python is being used either by looking at your PyCharm settings, or by asking Python directly with:

import sys
print(sys.executable)

Note that PyCharm can handle package installations for you as well; rather than use the command line pip consider using PyCharm, as it'll use the currently configured Python installation in that case.
