from gensim import utils

Hey I am ruining into this problem. I am using Visual Studio 2015 windows 8.1 64bits

>>> from gensim import interfaces

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\gensim-0.12.2-py2.7-win-amd64.egg\gensim\__init__.py", line 6, in <module>

    from gensim import utils

ImportError: cannot import name utils

Please help me

Hello Khaled,

what directory are you running the python shell from?

And what is the exact error when you open a new python shell, and type `from gensim import utils`?

Hey Radim, Thank you very your fast reply. I have explained below all the problem I think that are associated with my issue.  

I first installed anacoda. Then I run python from visual studio 2015 on windows 7 64bit

using 

scipy==0.7.0

numpy==1.10.0

1) When I import gensim after importing scipy and numpy the error messges is as follows

>>> import scipy

>>> import numpy

>>> import gensim

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\gensim\__init__.py", line 6, in <module>

    from gensim import parsing, matutils, interfaces, corpora, models, similarities, summarization

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\gensim\matutils.py", line 17, in <module>

    from gensim import utils

ImportError: cannot import name utils

2) but when I import gensim directly without importing scipy and numpy I get this message 

>>> import gensim

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\gensim\__init__.py", line 6, in <module>

    from gensim import parsing, matutils, interfaces, corpora, models, similarities, summarization

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\gensim\matutils.py", line 21, in <module>

    import scipy.linalg

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\scipy\linalg\__init__.py", line 161, in <module>

    from .misc import *

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\scipy\linalg\misc.py", line 5, in <module>

    from . import blas

  File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\scipy\linalg\blas.py", line 155, in <module>

    from scipy.linalg import _fblas

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

3) I would like to mention that when I try to update the scipy to version 0.14.0. I get this error

        config = setup_module.configuration(*args)

      File "scipy\integrate\setup.py", line 12, in configuration

        blas_opt = get_info('blas_opt',notfound_action=2)

      File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\numpy\distutils\sys

        return cl().get_info(notfound_action)

      File "C:\Users\mig-admin\Anaconda\lib\site-packages\numpy\distutils\sys

        raise self.notfounderror(self.notfounderror.__doc__)

    numpy.distutils.system_info.BlasNotFoundError:

        Blas (http://www.netlib.org/blas/) libraries not found.

        Directories to search for the libraries can be specified in the

        numpy/distutils/site.cfg file (section [blas]) or by setting

        the BLAS environment variable.

Hello Khaled,

what version of gensim did you install? And how did you install it?

In any case, this error looks unrelated to gensim. Probably best to ask at your distribution mailing list (anaconda), or perhaps at the scipy mailing list.

Best,

Radim
