I am testing an application and I am getting the above error "ImportError: No module named 'requests.packages.urllib3'" Below are the details.
[root@lab ~]# python /opt/test/panda_API.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/opt/test/panda_API.py", line 8, in <module>
import requests
File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/requests/__init__.py", line 58, in <module>

raise ImportError("No module named '%s'" % (name,))
ImportError: No module named 'requests.packages.urllib3'
In a bid to resolve that, I try to pip install requests. Then the following error pops up.
[root@lab ~]# pip install requests

I have searched for solution here on stack overflow and other platforms, the closest is the one in this page on stack overflow. (ImportError: No module named sysconfig--can't get pip working).
I have tried the steps proposed in the above link, yet the same error "ImportError: No module named sysconfig", keeps repeating.
Running "pip -V", generated the same error. Running the recommended command to check the version of setuptools, generated the following error --------
[root@lab pkg_resources]# python2.6 -c "import setuptools; print(setuptools.__version__)"
`Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named sysconfig
I have checked /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages, and I do not have pkg_resources.py. Instead, what I have is the directory pkg_resources.
It appears that I have a more complicated case. Please I need help please!
