What version of gdelttools are you using? You can find what version by typing `gdeltloader -he.

#6

gdeltloader version is 0.06a5

#7

Can you upgrade to the latest version?

#8

Getting the below issue, when trying to upgrade to latest version. My Python version is 3.9.6.

Aha, GDELT is somebody elses package. You need to install the gdeltttools package. To install and upgrade run:

python3 -m pip install gdelttools

I suggest using python -m pip as opposed to pip directly as this ensures you use the pip associated with your default python. Tip of the hat to @Mark_Smith, my colleague for this suggestion.
