I have just upgraded Python to 3.11 today. Pandas-profiling worked fine before, but now I cannot seem to import it due to the following error:

cannot import name 'DataError' from 'pandas.core.base' (C:\Users\User_name\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python311\Lib\site-packages\pandas\core\base.py)

Any help as to how I can fix this?

This is my code:

import pandas as pd
from pandas_profiling import ProfileReport

Pandas version - 1.5.2 Pandas-profiling version - 3.2.0

You need to simply install the ydata_profiling package and also pandas_profiling; after that, type:

from pandas_profiling import ProfileReport

Then you are good to go.

After more research, I think this is an issue with the new version of python (3.11). I re-installed python 3.10(.9) and pandas_profiling works perfectly fine.

The code to run this different version of python in Jupyter notebook from cmd shell is:

C:\Users\User_name\Your_path_to_python\Python\Python310\python.exe -m notebook

Then just use pandas_profiling normally. If anyone has any suggestions to get it working on python v3.11, let me know.

Thanks for your answer. In case you found a bug in a library, you may want to report it directly to the maintainers, so they get aware and provide a fix. In your case, please follow the instructions on pandas-profiling.ydata.ai/docs/master/pages/support_contrib/…

Update Version as of 2024:

import pandas as pd
import ydata_profiling as pp

pandas_profiling is no longer maintained: https://pypi.org/project/pandas-profiling/. Instead, according to the instructions, you should use ydata_profiling.
