You should really import the module into its own alias.

import datetime as dt
my_datetime = dt.datetime(year, month, day)

The above has the following benefits over the other solutions:

Calling the variable my_datetime instead of date reduces confusion since there is already a date in the datetime module (datetime.date).
The module and the class (both called datetime) do not shadow each other.

If you have used   from datetime import datetime   Then simply write the code as   date   datetime int year   int month   1    But if you have used   import datetime   then only you can write   date   datetime datetime int 2005   int 5   1

I run into the same error maybe you have already imported the module by using only import datetime so change  form datetime import datetime to only import datetime  It worked for me after I changed it back

Datetime is a module that allows for handling of dates  times and datetimes  all of which are datatypes   This means that datetime is both a top-level module as well as being a type within that module  This is confusing   Your error is probably based on the confusing naming of the module  and what either you or a module you re using has already imported    gt  gt  gt  import datetime  gt  gt  gt  datetime  lt module  datetime  from   usr lib python2 6 lib-dynload datetime so  gt   gt  gt  gt  datetime datetime 2001 5 1  datetime datetime 2001  5  1  0  0    But  if you import datetime datetime    gt  gt  gt  from datetime import datetime  gt  gt  gt  datetime  lt type  datetime datetime  gt   gt  gt  gt  datetime datetime 2001 5 1    You shouldn t expect this to work                                    as you imported the type  not the module Traceback  most recent call last     File   lt stdin gt    line 1  in  lt module gt  AttributeError  type object  datetime datetime  has no attribute  datetime   gt  gt  gt  datetime 2001 5 1  datetime datetime 2001  5  1  0  0    I suspect you or one of the modules you re using has imported like this   from datetime import datetime

[python] type object 'datetime.datetime' has no attribute 'datetime'
