python module import fails when using pm2

I try to run a python3 script notifying be about twitter posts on my Ubuntu server. Doing this in command line works fine, but when I use pm2 to keep the script online after closing the console, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/root/projects/Twitterbot/main.py", line 1, in <module>
from tweepy.streaming import StreamListener
ImportError: No module named tweepy.streaming

When I switch the interpreter from python to python3 nothing at all happens, it doesn't crash. It takes some RAM, but it doesn't seem to do anything.

Does someone know what might be the issue? An other Python script (which imports a lot of things) is running fine without any issues.

I already reinstalled tweepy using pip but no change

I had a similar problem, it turns out python3 buffers all output by default with pm2 or nohup. So the logs won't show anything and pm2 monit won't show anything.

Run python3 with -u flag to flush everything ASAP.

pm2 start myscript.py --interpreter python3 --interpreter-args -u
