2 years ago After a few days of debugging, I hope this solution to installing HotSpotAnalysis_Plugin is valuable to someone. My initial error was a version of the Pysal “ModuleNotFoundError.” My solution generally was a key-mash of copy/paste of the Pysal folder until I created successful output without errors. I should point out I previously installed Anaconda Python 3 on my PC. I lack the skills or patience to confirm this interacts with my solution. To begin with, in Win10 I installed QGIS 3.20.0-2 using admin rights. Following a successful installation, I proceeded to instructions for a 3.20 installation of HotSpotAnalysis_Plugin (https://github.com/danioxoli/HotSpotAnalysis_Plugin). With admin rights, I opened a OSGeo4W shell. Within the command window, I executed the following commands in this order: 1) py3_env, 2) python -m pip install --upgrade pip, 3) python -m pip install pysal, 4) pip show pysal. This last command is to confirm installation of Pysal 2.0.0. Since I installed Pysal 2.0.0 (I’ll come to where in a moment), I downloaded the latest, unreleased version of HotSpotAnalysis_Plugin at its repository link (https://github.com/danioxoli/HotSpotAnalysis_Plugin/archive/refs/heads/qgis3pysal2.zip). As with any other QGIS plugin, I installed it using the ZIP file location option. Upon installation, QGIS produced the “ModuleNotFoundError” when looking for Pysal. Having just installed it, that was a perplexing answer. I should note there is probably a solution that involves telling QGIS of other Python libraries. As I said, my skills are limited. Instructions for overcoming this error suggest commenting out a “import spreg” command (among other ideas). Whereas the plugin code no longer contains this specific line of code and context, it appears that suggestion is not helpful (or necessary). In order to account for the problem of QGIS finding Pysal, I created a crude solution: 1) uninstall the HotSpotAnalysis plugin, 2) close QGIS, 3) copy “Pysal” and “seaborn” folders from “C:\OSGeo4W64\apps\Python37\lib\site-packages” to “C:\Program Files\QGIS 3.20.0\apps\qgis\python, 4) install HotSpotAnalysis plugin from the list of uninstalled plugins (do not use ZIP). No errors occurred in installation. As a test of the plugin I used the following data sets and instructions: 1) create a Getis Ord G SHP file from “demo_data” provided—success, 2) create a Getis Ord G SHP file from “demo_data_poly” provided—success, 3) create a Getis Ord G SHP file from a personal SHP file of all 2015 US ZIP codes using population by ZIP—fail, 4) create a Getis Ord G SHP file from a personal SHIP file of all continental 2015 US ZIP codes using population by ZIP—success. Run time for all was less than a couple minutes. Good luck!

After installing pysal, commenting out import pysal.spreg and the area where it is trying to import and the pysal.common.pandas section, I keep getting this error when I try and install.
