AttributeError: module 'socketserver' has no attribute 'ForkingMixIn'

First I tried the SocketServer class. Then I got to know that SocketServer is available in Python2. For Python3 you need to make it lower case such as socketserver. I am trying to implement a Socket server which can respond to multiple threads and doesnt block the call.

Following is the code for Server

class ForkingServer(socketserver.ForkingMixIn, socketserver.TCPServer):
  pass

enter image description here But it gives the above mentioned error. Does anyone have any clue?

Oh, I just realized from the screenshot that you're on Windows. The ForkingMixIn class is not available on Windows because there is no fork() on Windows. This is also mentioned in the docs.
