I'm getting error when I import stream from tweepy

Question

I get this error message when I try from tweepy import stream

ImportError: cannot import name stream

knowing that I installed tweepy on my python

As Alec mentioned in answer you propably have issue with import. Take look at this :http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16867504 they are using some Stream from tweepy that might be the one you want — Jeribo, Dec 11 '13 at 18:25

Though it would really help to see your code, it looks like you're using the line

from tweepy import stream

correct?

When I look at the tweepy tests, it looks like Stream should be capitalized. Check out this page for an example:

When importing in Python (and with all things in Python) case matters. So try changing the line to

from tweepy import Stream

You have a line of code that reads:

import stream

somewhere and Python has no idea what you are on about. - That is why you have this error.

For more help we need more code, ideally your python path too.

I installed tweepy and wrote those codes: import tweepy, from tweepy import stream – Galal Ali Dec 11 '13 at 18:26
@GalalAli I take no credit for this (the answer from ... I'm not writing that out - mentions it) try a capital S – Alec Teal Dec 11 '13 at 18:28
