ImportError: No module named 'botocore.parameters'

After an upgrade on my awscli install, I ran in this error. I can't figure out the reason for that error. Can anyone help?

AWS Cli Error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/aws", line 23, in <module>
    sys.exit(main())
  File "/usr/bin/aws", line 19, in main
    return awscli.clidriver.main()
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/clidriver.py", line 44, in main
    driver = create_clidriver()
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/clidriver.py", line 53, in create_clidriver
    event_hooks=emitter)
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/plugin.py", line 44, in load_plugins
    modules = _import_plugins(plugin_mapping)
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/plugin.py", line 61, in _import_plugins
    module = __import__(path, fromlist=[module])
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/handlers.py", line 24, in <module>
    from awscli.customizations.ec2addcount import ec2_add_count
  File "/usr/share/awscli/awscli/customizations/ec2addcount.py", line 16, in <module>
    from botocore.parameters import StringParameter
ImportError: No module named 'botocore.parameters'

Any help will be apreciated! Best regards

Another easier solution would be to use the awscli install bundle provided by amazon.

You can find all the instructions here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/awscli-install-bundle.html

The subpackage botocore.parameters was split into serveral other modules with version 0.64.0 - but your version of awscli seems to rely on an older version as it expects this package to be present.

Depending on your way of installing awscli the problem might have different origins. When looking at the paths in the trace, it seems as if you've installed it with a package from your OS vendor. Instead of doing that you might drop those package and install it using pip.

pip install awscli

This will ensure the currently latest stable version of awscli to be installed. When you want to upgrade again in the future, run pip -U install awscli.

If you want to stick with the OS vendors version you probably want to reinstall awscli completely to fix this issue.
