You need to install pystan before fbprophet.

Installation instruction:

The default dependency that Prophet has is pystan. PyStan has its own installation instructions. Install pystan with pip before using pip to install prophet.

python3 -m pip install pystan==2.19.1.1
sudo apt install python3-dev
python3 -m pip install prophet

In Ubuntu 21.04, I followed these instructions

https://github.com/facebook/prophet/blob/b75844e07c3b09bf3bc383c9d43241c554dd251b/Dockerfile

FROM python:3.7-stretch

RUN apt-get -y install libc-dev

RUN pip install pip==19.1.1

COPY python/requirements.txt .

RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
...

I installed the python dependencies

sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install make build-essential libssl-dev zlib1g-dev \
libbz2-dev libreadline-dev libsqlite3-dev wget curl llvm \
libncursesw5-dev xz-utils tk-dev libxml2-dev libxmlsec1-dev libffi-dev liblzma-dev

I installed python 3.7.10 with pyenv.

I installed the requirements

Cython>=0.22
cmdstanpy==0.9.68
pystan~=2.19.1.1
numpy>=1.15.4
pandas>=1.0.4
matplotlib>=2.0.0
LunarCalendar>=0.0.9
convertdate>=2.1.2
holidays>=0.10.2
setuptools-git>=1.2
python-dateutil>=2.8.0
tqdm>=4.36.1

And I installed prophet

pip install prophet

Other option

build the docker image from this docker-compose.yaml

docker-compose build package

With that, you can use the built image.

This should work in Ubuntu: After making sure you have the right python version. Update apt and install following libraries.

sudo apt update
sudo apt install python3-dev python3-pip python3-venv

use python3 -m pip to install pystan and prophet

python3 -m pip install pystan 
python3 -m pip install prophet

i did use conda and worked for me

conda install gcc_linux-64 gxx_linux-64 -c anaconda
conda install pystan -c conda-forge
conda install --yes \
    -c conda-forge fbprophet

Just an update

I recently faced this issue on AWS EC2 running t2.micro with Ubuntu 20.

Some great guy bought us prebuilt wheels for prophet, here's the link

Pystan2 is no longer maintained and possibly the source of the issue.

In my case, I installed prophet locally from

https://github.com/facebook/prophet
