No module named Image

Question

Sorry for my grammar, I don't speak English. After I set filebrowser, tinymce, and grappelli, I get this error: No module named Image

try:
    from PIL import Image
except ImportError:
    import Image

I set it to PIL but it didn't solve the problem. my platform windows

If i want: pip install PIL

`c:\Users\Kim\BitNami DjangoStack projects\homex8>pip install PIL
Downloading/unpacking PIL
  Running setup.py egg_info for package PIL
    WARNING: '' not a valid package name; please use only.-separated package names in setup.py

Installing collected packages: PIL
  Running setup.py install for PIL
    WARNING: '' not a valid package name; please use only.-separated package names in setup.py
    building '_imaging' extension
    error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat`

I do not understand what that means

Solved problem. reinstall PIL with easy_install, and more movements, here are the details.

Have you installed `PIL`? http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/ — Blender, Aug 19 '12 at 05:20

You are missing PIL (Python Image Library and Imaging package). To install PIL I used

 pip install pillow

For my machine running Mac OSX 10.6.8, I downloaded Imaging package and installed it from source. http://effbot.org/downloads/Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz and cd into Download directory. Then run these:

    $ gunzip Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz
    $ tar xvf Imaging-1.1.6.tar
    $ cd Imaging-1.1.6
    $ python setup.py install

Or if you have PIP installed in your Mac

 pip install http://effbot.org/downloads/Imaging-1.1.6.tar.gz

then you can use:

from PIL import Image

in your python code.

Thank you for Mac OS X hint. I tried various approaches with no luck. Building from source indeed helped. — Sergey Martynov, Jul 19 '18 at 23:03

Did you setup PIL module? Link

You can try to reinstall it on your computer.

@Homex I don't know what do you mean with 'Or enough: pip install PIL?', you can install the `PIL-for-python.exe` download from [here](http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) , try it . Good luck! – shihongzhi Aug 19 '12 at 05:59

It is changed to : from PIL.Image import core as image for new versions.

You can this query:

pip install image

I had pillow installed, and still, I got the error that you mentioned. But after I executed the above command, the error vanished. And My program worked perfectly.

Problem:

~$ simple-image-reducer

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/simple-image-reducer", line 28, in <module>
    import Image

**ImportError: No module named Image**

Reason:

Image != image

Solution:

1) make sure it is available

python -m pip install  Image

2) where is it available?

sudo find ~ -name image -type d

-->> directory /home/MyHomeDir/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/image ->> OK

3) make simple-image-reducer understand via link:

ln -s ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/image
~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Image

4) invoke simple-image-reducer again. Works:-)

If you are trying to just show the image on your notebook, below simply does the job

from IPython.display import Image
Image(url= "Link to the image ending with file format such as, .jpg or .png")
