Getting Error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'urllib2'

[Suhas Jadhav]

Hi,

I am getting error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'urllib2'

My Code is 

def test():

    import ldap

    from urllib.request import urlopen

    import urllib2

    import urllib

    auth.settings.actions_disabled=['register','change_password','request_reset_password','retrieve_username','profile']

    auth.settings.remember_me_form = False

    from gluon.contrib.login_methods.ldap_auth import ldap_auth

    auth.settings.login_methods = [ldap_auth(mode='ad',

    server='sever.com',

    base_dn='dc="DC,dc=corp,dc="DC",dc=com')]

    

    from gluon.contrib.login_methods.basic_auth import basic_auth

    auth.settings.login_methods.append(

    basic_auth('https://example.com'))

    return locals()

ERROR

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\WEB2PY\web2py\gluon\custom_import.py", line 77, in custom_importer
    return NATIVE_IMPORTER(oname, globals, locals, fromlist, level)
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'urllib2'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

    result = result or sys.modules[modules_prefix+'.'+itemname]
KeyError: 'applications.welcome.modules.urllib2'

All the imports work from python terminal but not from web2py

import ldap

    from urllib.request import urlopen

    import urllib2

    import urllib

VERSION

Using proper Python3 code?

Module urllib2 does not exist in Python 3.

[Suhas Jadhav]

Yes, I say the documentation. But issues here is urllib2 works well from my python console.

the error happens when web2py tries to call it.

My code is not calling it directly. I believe ldap_auth library calling urllib2 internally and faile.

Thanks,

Suhas

The Python3 console?
Unless you have done something weird, urllib2 cannot work in the
Python3 console *because the module does not exist*.

The proper course of action is to migrate the code correctly to Python
3. You may have to extract the code and run it through 2to3, or a
similar process, but be as it may, *code legitimally intended to run
in Python3 shouldn't invoke a library which is not supposed to exist
there*.

This is not a web2py problem.

Your sample in the original post showed YOU importing urllib2.  My scan of gluon/contrib/login_methods/ldap_auth.py doesn't find an import of urllib2.

Even if I use below code in the controller. Just the import

I am getting error
