ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'awsmfa'

[michal-kubicki]

After upgrading Python from 2.7.x to 3.8.x (on macOS) I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/aws-mfa", line 6, in <module>
    from awsmfa import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'awsmfa'

I did uninstall aws-mfa, relinked Python, installed aws-mfa again but it didn't help.

brew switch python 3.7.7
brew unlink python@3.8

I'm also having this issue

i got this issue after a brew upgrade, i had to resintall pip3 with a curl

curl -sS https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3
pip3 uninstall aws-mfa
pip3 install aws-mfa

[toddmetheny]

@fkarakas I tried that but I'm still getting the same error. I'd take welcome any other ideas if you have any.

[fkarakas]

i don't know, another try...

brew remove python3
brew install python3
curl -sS https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py | sudo python3
pip3 uninstall aws-mfa
pip3 install aws-mfa

I ran into the same issue. It turned out my pip3 installation was messed up. To get to the point aws-mfa worked for me again I ran:

python3 -m ensurepip --default-pip
pip3 uninstall aws-mfa
pip3 install aws-mfa

macOS 11.1, python 3.9.1

It was broken for me with both python 3.11 and 3.10. Using conda and python 3.9 it finally works again.

conda activate <your python 3.9 env>
python -m ensurepip --default-pip
pip install aws-mfa

success
