Hello,
I'm using python 2.7 in ubuntu and I'm creating a modbus TCP server while running the code for modbus TCP. I'm getting an error i.e

File "modbus.py", line 4, in <module>
    from socketserver import TCPServer
ImportError: No module named socketserver

Hello, first of all I highly recommend to update to a more recent version of Python because Python 2.7 has reached EOL. That means that this version is not supported anymore by the Python Foundation and it won't receive any updates anymore.

Second socketserver doesn't exists in Python 2.7. In Python 2.7 it is called SocketServer.

typo: corrected module name to SocketServer

'sockerserver' fails on systems without Python3:
# python example_server.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "example_server.py", line 1, in <module>
    import socketserver
ImportError: No module named socketserver
//note
"socketserver doesn't exists(sic) in Python 2.7. In Python 2.7 it is called SocketServer"
