Do you have a file called jinja2.py? If so, Python is finding that instead of the real jinja2 package; you'll need to remove/rename it to make it work.

If it's not that, try uninstalling and reinstalling.

Open a Python shell, do import jinja2 and then print(jinja2) to see what file it's being loaded from. Make sure it's the real Jinja2 package.

Hello, I have same issue on centos 7.

from jinja2 import Environment, PackageLoader, select_autoescape
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
ImportError: cannot import name Environment

print(jinja2)
<module 'jinja2' from '/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/jinja2'>

If I run python shell with sudo then I am able to import Environment. Looks like some issue with permissions to the packaged. Don't know how it is possible to import jinja2 without sudo and not be able to import Environment.

For me, the error is:

from jinja2 import Environment, FileSystemLoader
ImportError: cannot import name 'Environment'

I solved it by downgrading jinja2 from 2.9.6 to 2.8.
