No module named 'wakeonlan'

[PearTV]

My issue is simple: I'm trying to run some code I wrote in python with flask.

When I run it, it gives me the following error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'wakeonlan'

Now you might be thinking I just forgot to install wakeonlan, but that's the thing: I didn't. wakeonlan is installed and running wakeonlan --version does result in it telling me what version of wakeonlan have installed.

I'm running this on a raspberry pi 4 using Raspberry Pi OS 64bit if that makes any difference.

I'm new to python, flask, linux and pi so I'msorry if this is a real easy fix. I am noob.

Don’t call yourself a noob. Everyone has to start somewhere, but noob has a negative ring to it. :)

You probably have multiple Python environments. The wakeonlan executable on in your $PATH is uses a different environment than the python executable in your $PATH. While Python environments are a flexible and powerful feature, many people find it confusing.

I can’t really help with this, as it’s very specific to your setup. You can start by running which python and which wakeonlan, and checking where the first line of wakeonlan points to.
