ImportError: No module named enum

Question

I changed from Win XP 32bit to Win7 64bit and reinstalled Python 2.7 and the Anaconda package.

However, it seems like it isn't properly installed. When I do

import enum  

There is the error:

ImportError: No module named enum 

However, when I try import pandas it works.

When typing help() and modules within Ipython nothing happens.

Any idea how to go from here?

Answer 1

Or run a pip install --upgrade pip enum34

Answer 2

I ran into this same issue trying to install the dbf package in Python 2.7. The problem is that the enum package wasn't added to Python until version 3.4.

It has been backported to versions 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, and 2.4, you just need the package from here: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/enum34#downloads
