###### ImportError: No module named 'carla'
|
||||
|
||||
> This error occurs because Python cannot find the CARLA library. The CARLA library is contained in an `.egg` file, located in the directory `PythonAPI/carla/dist` and all the example scripts will look for it in this directory. The `.egg` file follows the nomenclature of `carla-<carla-version>-py<python-version>-<operating-system>.egg`.
|
||||
>
|
||||
>If you are using a packaged version of CARLA, there will be several `.egg` files, corresponding to different versions of Python, depending on the version of CARLA. Make sure you are running the scripts with one of these Python versions. To check the default Python version, type the following into the command line:
|
||||
>
|
||||
>
|
||||
> python3 --version
|

> # or
|

> python --version
|

|

>If you built Python from source, the `.egg` file will be built according to the default Python version on your system. In Linux this will be the default Python version returned for:
|

|
||||
|

|

|
||||
> # Check if CARLA can now be found

|
