i’m not able to import psutil inside my scripts. But the library is installed on my machine.
my library is inside this directory, on which there is also simplejson library:
usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/psutil
But if i create a script for example this:
#!/usr/bin/python import psutil import simplejson as json print("Hello, world!")
i get this errors:
File "test.py", line 4, in <module> import psutil ImportError: No module named psutil
UPDATE
launching pip install psutil
i got this:
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): psutil in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Any ideas on how to resolve this error?

Installing using pip on UNIX
The easiest way to install psutil
on UNIX
is by using pip
(but first you might need to install python header files; see later). First install pip
:
$ wget https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py $ python get-pip.py
…then run:
$ pip install psutil
You may need to install gcc
and python header files first (see later).
