It looks like the [SARIMA Learner](https://hub.knime.com/knime/spaces/Examples/00_Components/Time%20Series/SARIMA%20Learner~gVVjDkkaH79V-ju2/current-state) and [SARIMA Predictor](https://hub.knime.com/knime/spaces/Examples/00_Components/Time%20Series/SARIMA%20Predictor~ZQhtGH_fOhzA_49_/most-recent) components were updated in October to go along with the new Python integration. However when you run them out of the box, this error occurs: ```auto Execute failed: ImportError: cannot import name ‘datetime’ from ‘pandas’ ``` It’s easy to fix if you are familiar with Python. I opened the component, opened the dialog for the Python Script ‘SARIMA Learner’ node, and changed this line: ```auto from pandas import datetime ``` to this: ```auto import datetime ``` I repeated the process for the SARIMA Predictor component with the Python Script ‘forecast’ node, and now they both run successfully. This error was already mentioned in [this post](https://forum.knime.com/t/sarima-uploaded-with-errors-on-k-ap-5-1-1-but-on-4-7-7-it-works-why/74850/12) along with some other user issues, but the components have not been updated since. I wanted to flag the bug and post the solution as well for anyone else running into this error. ---

Thanks @cbirch for the details. I’ll pass this on internally and see if we can’t get those components fixed. ---

It was just pointed out to me that you might want to give the nodes in the [Time Series Python Extension](https://kni.me/e/rxL1wMlNJN-jbnKL) extension a shot 🙂 ---

Hi guys, is there a way to solve this problem without any Python knowledge. I downloaded the Extension and have Python on bundled. But still have problem with that Error with the ARIMA Nodes. "ERROR Python Script 3:182:0:368 Execute failed: ImportError: cannot import name ‘datetime’ from ‘pandas’ " Tanks for your help! Anne ---

Hi @achagnaud and welcome to the forum. Just to be clear, did you try the new Python nodes I linked above, or are you still using the verified components? In either case, are you able to upload a workflow with some sample data that reproduces the problem? ---

Hi Scott, I have this problem with the regular ARIMA model Leander Node. With the SARIMA it worked without this Error. I just wanted to use the standard Arima Model after the decomposed signal. But if also standard to use the SARIMA I will do so - even though my Signal is Not having a big seasonal effect. Is it correct that I do not have to but can decompose the Signal anyways before using the SARIMA model? Would be happy to see a video or finding more infos on the SARIMA node - the book of yours is on its way already. But any tutorial would be great! Thanks for your help and have a great Week. Anne ---
