Error: systemerror parent module not loaded cannot perform relative import – how to solve it?

I’m building a new program, but when I run it, an error pops up. The error displayed is as follows:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "D:/Users/Myname/Documents/PycharmProjects/myProgram/app/main.py", line 1, in <module>
  from .mymodule import myclass
 SystemError: Parent module '' not loaded, cannot perform relative import

I have tried several workarounds, but they still do not get the desired results. If you have come across this situation and have a solution for the “systemerror parent module not loaded cannot perform relative import” problem, pls let me know. Here is what I do:

myProgram
 └── app
  ├── __init__.py
  ├── main.py 
  └── mymodule.py
class myclass(object):
 
 def __init__(self):
  pass
 
 def myfunc(self):
  print("Hello!")
from .mymodule import myclass
 
 print("Test")
 testclass = myclass()
 testclass.myfunc()
from mymodule import myclass

Thanks!

    The cause: The Systemerror parent module is not loaded, so when python couldn’t import a particular module and its fuction or class from another module, it also cannot use relative import.

    Solution: This suggestion will help you resolve your problem:

    try:
    from .mymodule import myclass
    except Exception: #ImportError
    from mymodule import myclass

    It means that your IDE will choose the right code site and your code will be managed to run through the python interpreter.

    The same problem was mine, and I solved it using an absolute import rather than a relative.

    For example, in your case you might write this:

    from app.mymodule import myclass

    The documentation explains this.

    Relative imports are determined by the current module’s name. Modules intended to be used as the main modules in a Python application should always use absolute imports, since the __main__ name is always the main module.

    Edit: To make the interpreter recognize the __init__.py file as a package, you should add it to your app directory. It’s fine if the file doesn’t exist.
