You are likely running some legacy Python 2 code that does not work in Python 3 anymore, because module urllib2 was changed.

More information in this StackOverflow answer:

Import error: No module name urllib2

Your options include

1) Find some other solutions that does not rely on unsupported Python 2

2) Try to get Python 2 installed on your computer and run the code through it

3) Update the code to support Python 3
