No module named urllib3

Question

I wrote a script to call an API and ran it successfully last week. This week, it won\'t run. I get back the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call          


        

Answer 1

Either urllib3 is not imported or not installed.

To import, use

import urllib3

at the top of the file. To install write:

pip install urllib3

into terminal.

It could be that you did not activate the environment variable correctly. To activate the environment variable, write

source env/bin/activate

into terminal. Here env is the environment variable name.

Answer 2

For me in PyCharm I had to put import urllib3 at the top of the file as mentioned earlier then PyCharm gave the option to import. Even after installing it with pip

Answer 3

Few minutes back, I faced the same issue. And this was because, I used virtual environment. I believe that due to venv directory, the pip installed might have stopped working.

Fortunately, I have setup downloaded in my directory. I ran the setup and chose the option to repair, and now, everything works fine.

Answer 4

set you environment by writing source env/bin/activate if env not found write virtualenv env first then source env/bin/activate , then check pip freeze if urllib3 not found there then reinstall urllib3, hope it helps.

Answer 5

pip install urllib3 

The reason it broke is that I had installed an incompatible version of urllib3 as a transient dependency of awscli. You'll see such conflicts when you rerun the install.
