Boto3 is installed but cannot find module RHEL 7

I'm trying to get the AWS-CLI working to start and configure ec2 instances.

I've installed boto3 through pip, pip3 and python install but still can't see boto3.

ImportError: No module named boto3

I'm running RHEL 7. I've tried several different ways of installing it,

pip install boto3
pip3 install boto3
python3 -m pip install --user boto3

The first time I ran pip install boto3 it went through the installation output, as it did with pip3 install boto3 but now it just says requirement already satisfied, as it is already installed.

I've installed rh-python36-python-pip then scl enable rh-python36 bash to get pip working, which is working fine.

I've googled and googled and can't find any other answers, since it appears to be installed. Any ideas?

Solution

  • I installed the CentOS 7 python-boto3 package from the CentOS repo, and it worked first time.
