When I upgrade my Ubuntu into 14.04 from 12.04, this time I get this error:
ImportError: No module named datetime
When I upgrade my Ubuntu into 14.04 from 12.04, this time I get this error:
ImportError: No module named datetime
This happened to me when I created a virtualenv and then upgraded from 12.04 to 14.04.
I had to delete my virtualenv and recreate it, and after doing that, everything worked again.
Just run this command. It worked like a charm!
$ cp /usr/bin/python2.7 $(which python2.7)
This just happened to me after the 14.10 update, and it seems to be because my virtual environments have old copies of /usr/bin/python2.7
that — unlike the new binary — do not include datetime
built-in, and so get an error when they cannot find it on disk anywhere. The new interpreter seems to import it without any file I/O (try running it under strace to check).

I tried to re-install it by these steps.
1. remove the old version of venv
2. virtualenv venv
3. .venv/activate/bin
4. pip install -r requirements/ requirements.txt
And it works perfectly. Thanks guys :)
just reinitialize the virtualenv by:
cd <virtualenv-dir>
virtualenv .
If by chance you come across this error while trying to renew your LetsEncrypt certificate (like I did) I found the solution here:
https://askubuntu.com/a/850669/668101
Remove this folder and rerun LetsEncrypt and it will recreate all the relevant files and avoid the error from this thread.
rm ~/.local/share/letsencrypt -R
If you use virtualenv
, updating it might solve this issue
virtualenv /path/to/old/virtualenv/
Try...
>>> import sys
>>> sys.path
[... '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload',...]
if lib-dynload not included in sys.path, You could not import datetime
check it!
Same happened to me on upgrading Ubuntu from 14.04 to 15.10.
I solved it by upgrading pip and then removing and recreating the virtual env:
$ easy_install --upgrade pip
$ rmvirtualenv <my_virtual_env>
$ mkvirtualenv <my_virtual_env>
(I use virtualenvwrapper)
clear virtual env, consider VIRTUAL is the name of the virtual environment
virtualenv --clear VIRTUAL
Now activate it and install from requirements.txt
source VIRTUAL/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txt
If you face datetime import issue using IntelliJ PyCharm or Idea and from Console/Terminal it works fine, you should just duplicate/recreate running configurations.
