ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'datetime'

[bhushan Gupta]

I want to use Django to build a simple portal. I have done the following on Windows 10

installed Python 3.8 and pip

Installed virtualenv 

Created an env 'cargo' 

Installed Djengo 3.0.1

Set the path: 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Python.exe

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Scripts\

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages\django\bin\

I have activated the environment - (cargo) C:\Users\Gupta Consulting\Envs\cargo>

When I start a project using - python django-admin.py startproject cargo  I get the following error:

(cargo) C:\Users\Gupta Consulting\Envs\cargo>django-admin.py startproject myproject

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "C:\Users\GUPTAC~1\Envs\cargo\Scripts\django-admin.py", line 2, in <module>

    from django.core import management

  File "c:\users\guptac~1\envs\cargo\lib\site-packages\django\__init__.py", line 1, in <module>

    from django.utils.version import get_version

  File "c:\users\guptac~1\envs\cargo\lib\site-packages\django\utils\version.py", line 1, in <module>

    import datetime

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'datetime'

I commented out "import datetime" from the vsersion.py file. Then it did not find the next module in in the version.py file.

Looks like there is a setup problem.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks.

Exactly what did you do when you "set the path"? Why did you think you needed to do that manually in the first place? Don't. That is what a virtualenv is for.

I went to windows environment variables and added the last two lines. I was following instructions from: 

https://www.codingforentrepreneurs.com/blog/install-python-django-on-windows

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages

C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages\django\bin\

You do not have datetime module installed on your virtual environment. 

To install, type this command: "pip install datetime"

How about deleting your virtualenv and recreating a new one.

It may be located here ::: C:\Users\<user>\.virtualenvs\cargo




When reactivated, could you please provide as with the results of "echo $PATH" from cmdline.

Recreated virtual environment – no change.

 

Here is the PATH:

PATH=C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Python.exe;C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Scripts\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages;C:\Program Files (x86)\Python38-32\Lib\site-packages\django\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\WINDOWS\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\WINDOWS\System32\OpenSSH\;C:\Users\Gupta Consulting\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps;

Inside your virtual environment, what's the output of:

# pip freeze

?

Kind regards,

Kasper Laudrup

Can you please check whether the python interpreter inside the virtual environment is python 2 or python 3 ?

In order to do so, you need to goto to the virtualenv folder, activate cargo env, and then check "python -V"

Hello Kasper, thanks for following up.

I installed Datetime module using pip. The module is there but still the same error. Looks like a setup error. Here is the pip output:

asgiref==3.2.3
DateTime==4.3
Django==3.0.1
pytz==2019.3
pywin32==227
sqlparse==0.3.0
virtualenv==16.7.8
zope.interface==4.7.1
