Troubleshooting

Import errors in Python

Make sure you’re using Python 3.9 or higher:

python --version

If you have multiple Python versions, try:

python3.9 -m pip install daytona

Module not found in TypeScript

Ensure you have the correct import statement:

import { Daytona } from '@daytonaio/sdk'

And that your package.json includes the dependency:

{
  "dependencies": {
    "@daytonaio/sdk": "^0.1.0"
  }
}

Go module errors

Make sure your project is using Go modules:

go mod init your-project-name
go get github.com/daytonaio/daytona/libs/sdk-go

Ruby version conflicts

Check your Ruby version:

ruby --version

If you’re using rbenv or rvm, ensure you’re on Ruby 3.2+:

rbenv install 3.2.0
rbenv global 3.2.0
