I am getting error while running "from lxml import tree" on python3.6
>>> import lxml
>>> from lxml import etree
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: cannot import name 'etree'
The same working on python3.4, I have tried many things to troubleshoot as below but didn't success.
python -m pip uninstall lxml
python -m pip install lxml==3.6.0
pip install -t /usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages lxml==3.6.0

I also encountered this problem using Python3.6.
Just by uninstalling lxml and installing it again with pip the issue is resolved.
Got this working in Lambda with python 3.6
Turns out lxml wraps c libraries that are compiled for a certain processor architecture (I think)
Use precompiled binaries for lambda here:

After having the same problem at the instance of my Windows 2019 server, Python 3.8 and Anaconda, I downloaded the corresponding whl package, installed it with
pip install lxml-4.6.3-cp38-cp38-win_amd64
It now works without problem.
I have the same issue when deploying an Azure python function using version 3.9. I redeployed with 3.6 in Azure an everything worked fine.
Had the same while running the code in VS code.For me I got it resolved by changing the interpreter in VS code from 32-bit to 64-bit.
