"Having trouble with beautifulsoup install? Need help getting it set up?"

Hey guys,

Trying to get beautifulsoup install working but hitting a wall. Ran `pip install beautifulsoup4` and it *seems* to work, but then I get errors when importing.

Anyone else run into this?

Using Python 3.10 on Windows, btw. Maybe I’m missing a dependency or something?

Also, is there a cleaner way to do this? Keep seeing mixed advice online.

Thanks in advance!

Yo,

Trying to scrape some data and need beautifulsoup install ASAP.

Did `pip install bs4` (saw that somewhere), but now `import bs4` fails??

Am I dumb or is this finicky?

Linux user here, if that matters.

Pls halp.

Sup,

New to Python and struggling with the beautifulsoup install.

Followed a tutorial, did `pip install beautifulsoup4`, but `from bs4 import BeautifulSoup` gives a ModuleNotFoundError.

Did I miss a step? Virtual env? Permissions?

Any tips appreciated!

(Windows 11, Python 3.9)

Thx!
