Hello Vishnu,

What have you tried to do to debug this?

Please copy and paste the full traceback, starting with the line
“Traceback…”.

What version of Python are you running? On what OS?

Here is the full traceback,iam using python 3.9 and pip 21.1.3 and windows 10

“C:\Users\HP\PycharmProjects\sample Project\venv\Scripts\python.exe” “C:/Users/HP/PycharmProjects/sample Project/file_sample.py”

Your traceback points to a problem on the second line of the file configuration.py.

After downloading the files for pdfkit from PyPI, these are the first few lines I see in configuration.py:

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
import subprocess
import sys


class Configuration(object):
    def __init__(self, wkhtmltopdf='', meta_tag_prefix='pdfkit-'):
        self.meta_tag_prefix = meta_tag_prefix

As you can see, unlike what is mentioned in the traceback, line 2 of that file is definitely not

pdfkit.from_url(‘http://spsonline.in’,out.pdf)

That URL points to the site of a school in India. It looks like the version of pdfkit you have installed has been mangled by someone else.
