ImportError: No module named six

Question

You probably don't have the six Python module installed. You can find it on pypi.

To install it:

$ easy_install six

(if you have pip installed, use pip install six instead)

If pip "says" six is installed but you're still getting:

ImportError: No module named six.moves

try re-installing six (worked for me):

pip uninstall six
pip install six

On Ubuntu and Debian

apt-get install python-six

does the trick.

Use sudo apt-get install python-six if you get an error saying "permission denied".

For Mac OS X:

pip install --ignore-installed six

pip install --ignore-installed six
