ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'flask_httpauth'

I am now using gunicorn to start a flask server. However, while doing so, I am getting a ModuleNotFoundError when trying to launch a flask server using

gunicorn src:app --config gunicorn_config.py

Flask Code in src/init.py

1 from flask import Flask
2 from flask_httpauth import HTTPBasicAuth
3 from werkzeug.middleware.proxy_fix import ProxyFix
4 
5 app = Flask(__name__)
6 app.wsgi_app = ProxyFix(app.wsgi_app, x_proto=1, x_host=1)
7 auth = HTTPBasicAuth()

Error:

Verified that package installed in a virtual environment.

(venv) backend #> pip list | grep -i flask-httpauth
Flask-HTTPAuth        4.0.0
(venv) backend #> which pip
<PWD>/venv/bin/pip
(venv) backend #> which python
<PWD>/venv/bin/python
(venv) backend #> python -V
Python 3.9.1

For what it's worth, I was able to run it earlier and launch successfully. However it stopped working this afternoon.

Accoring to Flask standards, you should keep app instance not in __init__ but in any custom module. If you place it in __init__, you must use factory layout. Also, gunicorn points not to module, but to a file. In your case since you call gunicorn to app, you should place app instance in app.py file in src folder.
