I think the problem is with your version of python selected in pycharm and the version of python you installed BeautifulSoup

If using python3

pip3 install BeautifulSoup

or

pip3 install bs4

in case of python2 replace pip3 with pip

try to change python interpreter in pycharm settings.

alternatively try ( only for Ubuntu and Like Linux) I can't remember the exact package. try

apt-get install python3-bs4

or

apt-get python3-BeautifulSoup

again do it with python if you want for python2

Installing module beautifulsoup4
