No module named zope.index

Question

Getting the following error when trying to import a lib that depends on zope

No module named zope.index

my python path is correct (I can import other libs) I already created an init.py file in the zope folder but it still isnt working so Im not sure what I might be missing

currently using python 3.7

*edit Error:

File "C:\Users\vitor.valentim\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Lib\dedupe\tfidf.py", line 5, in from .canopy_index import CanopyIndex

File "C:\Users\vitor.valentim\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37\Lib\dedupe\canopy_index.py", line 3, in from zope.index.text.lexicon import Lexicon

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'zope.index'

Answer 1

The error message No module named zope.index implies that import found a package zope, but then failed to find zope.index (otherwise the error message would be No module named zope).

Try

import zope
print(zope)

and see what that resolves to, something like this often happens if there is something shadowing the package you're trying to import.

• Vitor Valentim: Print returned: <module 'zope' from 'C:\\Users\\vitor.valentim\\AppData\\Local\\Continuum\\anaconda3\\lib\\site-packages\\zope\_init_.py'> seems like python is looking on the wrong folder (looking at the anaconda folder when it should be looking at the python37 one). How can I fix this? Im using spyder
