ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests' after pip install


I know similar questions have been asked before but I couldn't find the solution to my problem.

I am getting the following error message after trying to import requests:

C:\Users\Jm\PycharmProjects\Test\venv\Scripts\python.exe C:/Users/Jm/PycharmProjects/Test/Test_001
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:/Users/Jm/PycharmProjects/Test/Test_001", line 1, in <module>
    import requests
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'requests'

I only have one version of python installed and python -m pip install requests is saying all the requirements are already satisfied.


Solution

  • Run this code:

    C:\Users\Jm\PycharmProjects\Test\venv\Scripts\python.exe -m pip install requests
    

    This forces the installation directory to your python install.

    This gives a much different effect than simply python -m pip install requests
