Import Error: 'lambda_function': cannot import name '_imaging'

Question

I am trying to import PIL on AWS.

I installed PIL using the below command.

pip3 install Pillow -t Desktop/myfolder

then zipped inside library and a lambda_function.py

It looks on aws console like this

EDIT : New snapshot

But I'm getting the below error.

ule 'lambda_function': cannot import name '_imaging'

First of all, why an image at all? Second, why an image that has a different error than the one you're asking about? — Ofer Sadan

Python will not import names with a leading underscore unless the module defines an __all __ list that overrides this behavior. Leading underscores impact how names get imported from modules.

Refer here for detailed explanation.

Just do this instead

import PIL
