ImportError no module named requests after installing with pip

Question

I am getting ImportError   no module named  requests     But I have installed the requests package using the command pip install requests   On running the command pip freeze in the command prompt  the result is  requests  2 7 0   So why is this sort of error happening while running the python file

One possible reason is that you have multiple python executables in your environment, for example 2.6.x, 2.7.x or virtaulenv. You might install the package into one of them and run your script with another.

Type python in the prompt, and press the tab key to see what versions of Python in your environment.

Opening CMD in the location of the already installed request folder and running  pip install requests  worked for me  I am using two different versions of Python    I think this works because requests is now installed outside my virtual environment  Haven t checked but just thought I d write this in  in case anyone else is going crazy searching on Google
