ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'boto3' - Matillion

Question

I've installed python3 and boto3, and i want to run my python script from Matillion but it complains about boto3 module not being available:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/tmp/interpreter-input-106f3f10-6834-4b31-bfca-ea489348086f.tmp", line 15, in <module>
    import boto3
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'boto3'

Also, if i create simple test.py and execute it on server it will through the same error. Package is under this location: /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/boto3 and it has following permissions:

drwx------ 10 root root  210 Mar 10 06:21 boto3
drwx------  2 root root  133 Mar 10 06:21 boto3-1.21.16.dist-info

Any idea what could be an issue?

As @Tzane commented, issue was related to paths.

The path where i had boto3 installed (/usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/boto3) was not in python paths. So, first uninstall boto3:

pip uninstall boto3

then install in on new location:

pip install --target=/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages boto3
