No module "configparser" even upon installing configparser

Question

I installed python module configparser with pip install configparser and it installed 3.5.0. Now, when I am using import configparser in my .py file, but then I am getting No module named configparser. Can someone explain why is this so and how can I fix it? I have /usr/local/lib in my $PATH where configparser.py is?

Answer 1

Use

from backports import configparser
