Bot does not start "No module named requests"

[mike4001]

Hi, I am running your bot for several months now.

I just updated (via git pull).

When I now try to start the bot I get the error message

pi@retropie:~/poloniexlendingbot $ python lendingbot.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "lendingbot.py", line 17, in
from modules.ExchangeApiFactory import ExchangeApiFactory
File "/home/pi/poloniexlendingbot/modules/ExchangeApiFactory.py", line 6, in
from modules.Bitfinex import Bitfinex
File "/home/pi/poloniexlendingbot/modules/Bitfinex.py", line 6, in
import requests
ImportError: No module named requests`

Can you help me?

[mike4001]

OK, solved it ...

You should add that you have to install pip via

sudo apt-get install python-pip

wasn't installed by default on my system

Hello, I have the same problem and installing the PIP did not work.

I upgraded BOT today and installed PIP with the command: sudo pip install -r requirements.txt

What did I do wrong?

Thanks.

What was the result from the pip install?

These requirements should not be in Python2?

Got similar?

It looks like some files are more up to date than your files ...

Your paste does not show the same attempts as me. Did you try the two import commands?

[lexrms]

What import commands?

[lexrms]

Here:

import requests

I tried to import with Python3 and worked:

Python 3.5.2+ (default, Sep 22 2016, 12:18:14)
[GCC 6.2.0 20160927] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import hypothesis
import numpy
import pandas
import pytz
import requests

Now with Python2

Python 2.7.12+ (default, Sep 17 2016, 12:08:02)
[GCC 6.2.0 20160914] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

import hypothesis
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named hypothesis
import numpy
import pandas
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named pandas
import pytz
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named pytz
import requests
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named requests

It seems that pip install is installing the versions for python3 and not for python2. How to force installation to python2?
