ImportError: No module named 'paramiko'
Question: I have done through the other questions online here, and I feel that mine is
different enough to warrant a new question.

So I have a `Centos 6 box`, which is running a small website for me, acts as
an office git server and I am trying to configure `Python3` on it.

So I followed the following [these
steps](https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-
python-2-7-6-and-3-3-3-on-centos-6-4) to set up `python3` on the server.
However it seems that I cannot import paramiko into my script.

I downloaded the paramiko rpm however I get this message:

When I try to import paramiko I get:

    
    
    [root@GIT Python-3.4.2]# rpm -ivh /usr/lib/Python-3.4.2/Modules/python-paramiko-1.7.5-2.1.el6.noarch.rpm
    Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
    package python-paramiko-1.7.5-2.1.el6.noarch is already installed
    

When I run python3 directly:

    
    
    [root@GIT inserv_health_check]# python3
    Python 3.4.2 (default, Jan 21 2015, 06:28:04)
    [GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-11)] on linux
    Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
    >>> import paramiko
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
    ImportError: No module named 'paramiko'
    >>>
    

I am sure there is a simple solution to this problem perhaps the path is
wrong, or I should have put a symbolic link in somewhere. Any help would be
appreciated :)

Before anyone asks, which python output:

    
    
    [root@GIT Python-3.4.2]# which python
    /usr/bin/python
    [root@GIT Python-3.4.2]# which pytho~n3
    /usr/bin/which: no pytho~n3 in (/usr/lib64/qt-3.3/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin)
    [root@GIT Python-3.4.2]# which python3
    /usr/local/bin/python3
    

Thanks


Answer: You need to do `pip install paramiko` so that python sees that module. If you
work on a virtual environment, you need to `workon <env_name>` first and then
`pip install` the desired module.
