noskio is correct    it just means that simplejson isn t found on your system and you need to install it for Python older than 2 6  one way is to use the setuptools easy install tool  with it  you can install it as easily as  easy install simplejson  UPDATE  Feb 2014   this is probably old news to many of you  but pip is a more modern tool that works in a similar way  i e   pip install simplejson   only it can also uninstall apps

That means you must install simplejson  On newer versions of python  it was included by default into python s distribution  and renamed to json  So if you are on python 2 6  you should change all instances of simplejson to json    For a quick fix you could also edit the file and change the line   import simplejson   to   import json as simplejson   and hopefully things will work

For anyone coming across this years later   TL DR check your pip version  2 vs 3   I had this same issue and it was not fixed by running pip install simplejson despite pip insisting that it was installed  Then I realized that I had both python 2 and python 3 installed    gt  python -V Python 2 7 12  gt  pip -V pip 9 0 1 from  usr local lib python3 5 site-packages  python 3 5    Installing with the correct version of pip is as easy as using pip2    gt  pip2 install simplejson   and then python 2 can import simplejson fine
