I know there is an accepted answer for this question and many other answers also but I just wanted to add an another case which happened with me was Updating the django and django rest framework to the latest versions to make them work properly without any error   So all you have to do is just uninstall both django and django rest framework using   pip uninstall django pip uninstall djangorestframework  and then install it again using   pip install django pip install djangorestframework

I would assume that folks using containers know what they re doing  but here s my two cents   Let s say you setup your project using cookiecutter-django and enabled the docker container support  be sure to update the pip requirements file with djangorestframework   lt x yy z gt   or whichever python dependency you re trying to install  and re-build the docker images  local and production

Maybe you install DRF is for python2  not for python3   You can use python console to check your module   import rest framework   Actually you use pip to install module  it will install python2 module   You should install the pip for python3   sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools sudo easy install3 pip   So  you can install python3 module

In my case  my problem was different  I was creating in my bash profile an alias like   alias python  usr local bin python3   And even if I activate my environment  when I ran the command  the python interpreter accessed was from the system and not from my environment   I just removed the alias from bash profile and it worked fine

I recently installed the latest Django 3 1 and Django Rest Framework 3 11 1 libraries only to eventually realize Django 3 1 is not supported by DRF as of 11 April 2020  I did not realize that the exact releases mentioned need to be used  If you re pulling your hair out because you can t understand why DRF is not importing check these requirements and make sure your app is compatible
