Fiona Import Error

Windows, Python 2.7, ..?

ImportError: cannot import name string_types

Traceback (most recent call last):

from six import string_types

Have you installed six and argparse? As it says in the README, you have to install these separately on Windows:

yes, but apparently not correctly. I can import it, however when fiona
attempts to use it, I see the error.

I'm closing this as it's not a Fiona bug. Once you get Fiona and six properly installed into the same Python 2.7 environment, it will work. I'm not a Windows user and so I'm not going to be able to help you troubleshoot. Sorry :(
