[FIXED] ImportError: cannot import name 'KoalasFrame' from 'databricks.koalas'

Issue

I got below warning and error

from databricks.koalas import KoalasFrame

WARNING:root:Found pyspark version "3.5.0" installed. The pyspark version 3.2 and above has a built-in "pandas APIs on Spark" module ported from Koalas. Try `import pyspark.pandas as ps` instead. 
WARNING:root:'PYARROW_IGNORE_TIMEZONE' environment variable was not set. It is required to set this environment variable to '1' in both driver and executor sides if you use pyarrow>=2.0.0. Koalas will set it for you but it does not work if there is a Spark context already launched.

Solution

pip install databricks
pip install koalas
pip install pyspark

from databricks.koalas import KoalasFrame

#Error

I assume that you mean:

from databricks.koalas import DataFrame
