cannot import name etree from lxml

Question

cannot import name etree from lxml

AnityEx opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

i know this might just be an error ob blender itself or on my part, but its weird and im adding it here anyway just in case, but on a fresh install blender accepts the addon (by changing the name of the config of blender inside appdata/roaming/blender foundation/2.93 to something else) and with my own preferences it doesnt

aditionally i also changed the init py by addigng a hash to "import preferences" then erased it and saved and the it said "name module is not defined" so i just deleted and added back again the 1.7.1 version

Version of LilySurfaceScrapper: 1.7.1 rc1
Version of Blender: 2.93 beta
Operating System: Windows 10

also i managed to "activate" the addon by going back to 2.92 change the file name of the configurations from 2.93 to 2.92 activate it go back and change 2.92 to 2.93 again and it looks like it doesnt have a problem with accepting it, but theres no menu of lily surface on it

Mmh the 1.7.1 RC1 was supposed to fix this. :/ The lxml version packaged inside the add-on before was for the Python version used between 2.83 and 2.92, cause 2.93 switches to a new version.
Could you python -m pip install lxml manually (where "python" is the one inside Blender's installation) and share the lxml package it installs?

genuinely I dont know how to do that, sorry

having the same error on Ubuntu 20.04
When running suggested command above I get:

2.93/python/bin/python3.9 -m pip install lxml -r 2.93/scripts/modules/ /blender/2.93/python/bin/python3.9: No module named pip

how can I install pip for Blender if it's not already bundled? (pip IS installed for python3 on the main system, as is the lxml package)
Thanks!

You can run python -m ensurepip to install pip (dunno why they provide directly pip on windows and not on linux...) That'd help me a lot if you could get these lxml files for linux!

Not sure it can fix the problem, but could you try installing vc_redist.x64 https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0 ?

update: i deleted preferences for 2.93 and installed only with this addon

seems to work fine

maybe its another addon messing with this

Interesting, thanks for the feedback.

C:\Users\Alan\AppData\Roaming\Blender Foundation\Blender\2.93\scripts\addons\modules\lxml_init_.py see this?

i just deleted the "modules" folder after trial and error on what addon could cause this, maybe an older version added this or some other addon
