PyCharm “no module named sys”

Question

Using PyCharm community edition and Python 2.7,

import traceback
import sys

No problem on the first line, which implies that I have pointed PyC

Answer 1

Maybe you're updating your PYTHONPATH variable in your .bashrc file? It started working on, after comment PATH PATH in bash_profile.

Answer 2

Make sure you've chosen the right Interpreter path and check some other run settings. Go to Run > Edit Configurations... and check, if some configurations seem to be wrong.

EDIT: Under Linux, you have often Python 2 and 3 installed, be sure to pick the correct one.

Answer 3

We actually no need of having "import sys" in pycharm. You can find this in 'os' module.

For example,

import os

Sys = os.sys

print("say , Good Bye")


Sys.exit(0)

print("Sorry, i am not exited")

I hope it will work.

Answer 4

I have had this issue with PyCharm before. I find that reloading the interpreter fixes the issue.

File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Interpreter

Remove the interpreter and add it again.

Answer 5

I had this problem as well and was completely stymied until I tried the following:

File -> 
Default Settings -> 
Project Interpreter
  dropdown (click the arrow) ->
Show All ->
  select your interpreter ->
Show Paths
  (bottom icon on right) ->
Add Path ->
  Enter path to libraries
  (in my case this was c:\Python35\Lib).

Answer 6

I had this issue and I resolved it by updating the default project settings under File -> Default Settings -> Project Interpreter and then in the drop down list for Project Interpreter, selecting the same interpreter as the Run Configuration was using (in my case python 3.6)
