Hi all.
I have an issue with pandas_profiling, currently my environment

• Conda 4.14.0
• Python 3.9.13
• pandas 1.5.0
• pandas-profiling 2.9.0

And received an error while try to import pandas_profilling

from pandas_profiling import ProfileReport
profile = ProfileReport(retail_raw)
profile.to_notebook_iframe()

Need the help to fix my problem.
Thanks

Same issue here. Python 3.10.

[floriancircly]

I had the same issue with pandas-profiling="3.2.0". I updated the module to pandas-profiling="3.3.0" and it worked without any further issues. (pandas="1.4.4" and Python 3.8.10)

[fabclmnt]

Yes this is already sorted in the latest version of pandas-profiling 3.2.0 and 3.4.0.

I'll ask you to confirm me whether with the newest versions and in a conda or pyenv, the problem is sorted.

I'm facing the same issue with below versions. How can i resolve the error any help much appreciated
pandas 1.5.3
pandas-profiling 3.1.0
ImportError: cannot import name 'DataError' from 'pandas.core.base'
(C:\Users\Username\PycharmProjects\DataQuality\venv\lib\site-packages\pandas\core\base.py

Hi @learnnk,

this is an issue solved in more recent versions. Can you please test with versions above 3.2.0 ?

[muha99]

hey guys i have installed pandas_profiling and when i run my code it says no module named pandas_profiling python 3.12.0

[fabclmnt]

Hi @muha99

you should be using ydata-profiling instead, as per the current documentation.

ydata-profiling is not yet available for python 3.12 only until python 3.11.

thanks for your reply , i have tried to install that library but it stars the installation but at the end it gives me this Building wheel for levenshtein (pyproject.toml) ... error

i have tried a lot of solutions , i have created a venv for both python 3.11 and 3.12 but it doesn't work i have installed pandas_profiling for python 3.12 it was installed but after running my code it says No module named 'pandas.... i have upgraded pip , pandas and everything , i also tried deactivating my antivirus because sometimes it doesn't let some libraries to be installed but nothing works for me
