Odoo cannot find PyPDF2

Question

I have been trying to install odoo on my ubuntu 20.04 lts. Here is the error I've got

raitis@raitis-VirtualBox:~$ sudo systemctl start odoo13
raitis@raitis-VirtualBox:~$ sudo systemctl status odoo13

raitis@raitis-VirtualBox:~$ pip3 install Pypdf2
Requirement already satisfied: Pypdf2 in /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages (1.26.0)
raitis@raitis-VirtualBox:~$

It can't find the pypdf2, however, it is installed, as you can see from the last lines. Have tried to install it using the apt too.

Did you successfully solve the issue, stuck for days.@Raicha — Kenneth mwangi, Jan 21 '21 at 06:31

@ Kenneth mwang Make sure about python version and same package is there or not. once the python version is suitable for your pakcage it will install. – Dipen Shah Jan 21 '21 at 06:20
I have installed it successfully but the same error persists. – Kenneth mwangi Jan 21 '21 at 06:36

You have a module installed on the system side, but it is not in odoo-venv. You should install it in venv. Be careful which pyhton interpreter you are running.
