python - ImportError: No Module named simplejson

Question

I'm trying to run a command to install bespinclient on my Windows laptop but every time I execute the command python bootstrap.py --no-site-packages, I get an error saying:

ImportError: No module named simplejson

I'm using Mozilla build tools to run these Linux commands.

Answer 1

That means you must install simplejson. On newer versions of python, it was included by default into python's distribution, and renamed to json. So if you are on python 2.6+ you should change all instances of simplejson to json.

For a quick fix you could also edit the file and change the line:

import simplejson

to:

import json as simplejson

and hopefully things will work.
