For Linux users who don t have root access and hence can t use sudo command as suggested in other answers     First  activate your conda virtual-environment  if you want to use one  by   source activate virtual-env-name   Then install graphviz  even if you have already done it using pip   conda install graphviz   then copy the result of the following command   whereis dot   In my case  its output is    home nader anaconda2 bin dot   and add it to your PATH variable  Just run the command below  nano    bashrc   and add these lines to the end of the opened file   PATH   home username anaconda2 bin dot  PATH  export PATH   now press Ctrl O and then Ctrl X to save and exit   Problem should be solved by now   Pycharm users  please note  Pycharm does not always see the PATH variable the same as your terminal  This solution does not work for Pycharm  and maybe other IDEs  But you can fix this by adding this line of code   os environ  PATH      os pathsep     home nader anaconda2 bin    to your python program  Do not forget to   import os   first     Edit  If you don t want to use conda  you can still install graphviz from here without any root permissions and add the bin folder to your PATH variable  I didn t test this

I had the same error message on Mac OS  El Capitan   using the PyCharm IDE  I had installed Graphviz using brew  as recommended in RZK s answer  and installed the graphviz python package using PyCharm  I could check Graphviz was installed correctly by trying dot -V in a terminal and getting  dot - graphviz version 2 40 1  20161225 0304    Yet I was still getting the error message when trying to call Graphviz from PyCharm   I had to add the path  usr local bin in PyCharm options  as recommended in the answer to this question to resolve the problem

When solving this issue for myself  I used this GitHub tutorial  which analysed the cause of this issue  If we read in between the lines  it says it needs system as well as python graph viz  In addition to conda install  we would need to run   conda install -c conda-forge python-graphviz   Then restart the kernel  it works like a charm
