Importgraph lab hello world error

Question

After installing GraphLab in my PC which is running Ubuntu 14.04, I have just encountered the following error in my first hello world program:

import graphlab

The Error:

 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 ImportError                               Traceback (most recent call last)
 <ipython-input-5-784beace7f26> in <module>()
  ----> 1 import graphlab

  ImportError: No module named graphlab

What is the reason for this and how the error could be solved?

The usual reason for this type of error is that your package is installed somewhere other than on the default path that Python is searching. Check

print sys.path

to see whether the location of your graphlab module is present. I'm guessing that it isn't, in which case you will need to append it:

sys.path.append('path/to/graphlab')

If that works you can then add that location to your PYTHONPATH for future use.

Thank you for your comments. The problem occurred in both of my machines and it was solved via using: `source activate dato-env`. Is your suggestions addressing the same thing? Thanks – Yas Feb 26 '16 at 11:13
No, it sounds like you had installed graphlab in a virtual environment that you weren't actually using. Glad you figured it out! – Silenced Temporarily Feb 26 '16 at 15:24

Did you install graphlab on your computer or did you install the graphlab python module? You might need to install the graphlab module if you only installed it on your computer.

Looks like this link here has the information that you need to install graphlab with pip.
