ImportError: No module named Crypto.Cipher

Question

When I try to run app.py (Python 3.3, PyCrypto 2.6) my virtualenv keeps returning the error listed above. My import statement is just from Crypto.Cipher import AES

Answer 1

To date, I'm having same issue when importing from Crypto.Cipher import AES even when I've installed/reinstalled pycrypto a few times. End up it's because pip defaulted to python3.

~ pip --version
pip 18.0 from /usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pip (python 3.7)

installing pycrypto with pip2 should solve this issue.
