ImportError: No module named boto3
Solution 1
sudo pip install boto3 installs it to your global pip. Explained here: Unable to install boto3
You can activate your venv, install boto3 without sudo and start python:
$ source path/to/your/ENV/bin/activate
$ pip install boto3
$ python
Or if you prefer to use your global installation do:
$ deactivate
$ pip install boto3
$ python
Check out the virtualenv user guide: https://virtualenv.pypa.io/en/latest/userguide.html
Also virtualenvwrapper makes it really easy to manage: https://virtualenvwrapper.readthedocs.org/en/latest/install.html
Solution 2
Globally for my mac, this worked
sudo pip install --ignore-installed six boto3
Solution 3
Try to activate your virtual environment
source bin/activate
Then try connecting installing boto3
pip install boto3

Installed the boto3 and upgraded it to the latest release. I tried the easy install pip for installation. I have multiple versions of python installed so I even tried installing in virtualenv venv. But I get the same error: "No module named boto3".
pip install boto3 python Python 2.7.11 (default, Mar 10 2016, 14:12:44) [GCC 4.6.3] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import boto3 Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ImportError: No module named boto3 >>>
I tried with / without sudo:
sudo pip install boto3
I`m trying to install AWS SDK on Raspberry Pi.
pip freeze
shows "boto3==1.3.0" installed.
