while using ‘sudo pip3 install boltiot’, it is showing “ImportError: cannot import name ‘sysconfig’ from ‘distutils’ (/usr/lib/python3.8/distutils/init.py)”. Please help to resolve the issue. Below is the image. I have used Digital Ocean along with Putty software. I have already done previous steps
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt install python3-pip
Also did trouble shooting as given in the course content. Still not working but.
Even when trying to check pip3 version, it is showing same error. I am unable to download BOLTIOT library and also python libraries and modules like numpy, pandas and others because of this.
Hi @PRERIT.WAHI
Don’t worry.
The same thing happened with me at the time of installation.
It was showing import error several times but I waited for some time and it wasn’t there.
Just wait for sometime.
I tried that but it didnt work.
Thanks anyway.
Hi @PRERIT.WAHI,
It seems that python3-distutils is not installed. Please install it using the below commands.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install python3-distutils
sudo apt-get update

Do let me know in case you need further assistance.
