I am having some problems with pip when trying to install a python application.
It says its not able to find pip3, but its installed
Digging deeper I think I have locations where pip3 is installed.
While trying to uninstall, even that is not working since it referring to the other pip3
How to I go about keeping only one copy of pip3 and uninstall one copy of it
$which pip3
/home/frappeuser/.local/bin/pip3
$ sudo pip3 uninstall pip
sudo: unable to execute /usr/local/bin/pip3: No such file or directory
You can unninstall it using python in cmd using the following:
python3 -m pip uninstall pip
In case you are using python 2.0
python -m pip uninstall pip
python - refers to the python version that you are working with
-m - refers to the option module
pip - specifies the module name that you want to use
uninstall - the operation you want to do
pip - the module that you want to uninstall
/local/ means you have it installed not via package manager, so to uninstall it you have to provide the full path:
sudo /home/frappeuser/.local/bin/pip3 uninstall pip
I installed python3 from the official website and then installed jupyter notebook. While trying to run jupyter notebook, I was getting a "command not found" error.
I found this github issue and followed the instructions to delete python3 and reinstall using Homebrew instead (I've used Homebrew before).
When trying python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip i get a "No module named pip" error. My /usr/local/bin/ file shows pip, pip2, pip2.7, pip3, pip3.6.
I have a feeling my pip is not associated with the python3 that I installed using Homebrew. How can I fix this?
This way is a pretty fool-proof way to install pip for a specific python interpreter, when you have a big mess of them on the machine:
$ curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py > /tmp/get_pip.py
$ my_python_interpreter /tmp/get_pip.py
Then:
$ my_python_interpreter -m pip install some_dist
I'm trying to write a script that uses speedtest-cli, I have installed the module with pip install speedtest-cli. If I run pip install speedtest-cli I get the following
Requirement already satisfied: speedtest-cli in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages
If I try to use pip with the default python, as recommended by another answer here, like so python -m pip install speedtest-cli I get
/usr/bin/python: No module named pip
I figured that the pip is setup for one of the other versions of python but the only version of python in /usr/local/bin is python3 and in /usr/bin there is python, python2.6, and python2.7 but I have tried defining each ones of those as the interpreter at the top of the file and none of them works, each producing giving the same import error on the speedtest module.
Which version of python is pip linked to then, or why is the installed module not importing?
The easiest solution was to completed a fresh start.
Remove all references to easy_install, python, and pip using the following;
rm -r easy_install*
rm -r pip*
rm -r python*
Then I used this guide to properly install, setup, and configure python with HomeBrew, with pip and virtualenv installed.
The article is fairly lengthy so I'm not going to copy it all out here but here is an image snapshot in case the link goes dead.
I am totally confused on the relation between pip and python versions. I am using ubuntu 15.10
I gave locate /usr/bin/pip I have got the following response.
/usr/bin/pip
/usr/bin/pip2
/usr/bin/pip3
I installed pyLDAvis module using- pip install pyldavis
But I never see pyldavis module in pip list and when I say import pyLDAvis it throws me error saying no module named pyLDAvis
After spending much time I have found this module in pip2 list.
When I installed it using pip why did it install for python2.7 and
why it's located in pip2 list and why not in pip list?
If we have only 2 python versions- python 2.x(pip2) and python
3.x(pip3) what's all this confusion with three executables for python and pip each- python, python2.7, python3.5 and pip, pip2, pip3? Please provide any background information and the main reason for this.
My existing python scripts are unable to run because the module is accessible by python2.7 and not by python Do I now need to point(using symbolic link) python to python2.7 ? If yes do I need to install all the modules that I have installed using pip again with pip2 so that pip2 list
has all the modules that were there for pip list earlier?
I am trying to run Google's deep dream. For some odd reason I keep getting
ImportError: No module named google.protobuf
after trying to import protobuf. I have installed protobuf using sudo install protobuf. I am running python 2.7 OSX Yosemite 10.10.3.
I think it may be a deployment location issue but i cant find anything on the web about it. Currently deploying to /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages.
There is another possibility, if you are running a python 2.7.11 or other similar versions,
sudo pip install protobuf
is ok.
But if you are in a anaconda environment, you should use
conda install protobuf
Locating the google directory in the site-packages directory (for the proper latter directory, of course) and manually creating an (empty) __init__.py resolved this issue for me.
(Note that within this directory is the protobuf directory but my installation of Python 2.7 did not accept the new-style packages so the __init__.py was required, even if empty, to identify the folder as a package folder.)
...In case this helps anyone in the future.
In my case I
downloaded the source code, compiled and installed:
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check
$ sudo make install`
for python I located its folder(python) under source code, and ran commands:
$ python setup.py build
$ python setup.py install'
Not sure if this could help you..
I got the same error message when I tried to use Tensor Flow. The solution was simply to uninstall Tensor Flow and protobuf:
$ sudo pip uninstall protobuf
$ sudo pip uninstall tensorflow
And reinstall it again: pip installation of Tensorflow. Currently, this is:
# Ubuntu/Linux 64-bit, CPU only:
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/cpu/tensorflow-0.8.0rc0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl
# Ubuntu/Linux 64-bit, GPU enabled:
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/linux/gpu/tensorflow-0.8.0rc0-cp27-none-linux_x86_64.whl
# Mac OS X, CPU only:
$ sudo easy_install --upgrade six
$ sudo pip install --upgrade https://storage.googleapis.com/tensorflow/mac/tensorflow-0.8.0rc0-py2-none-any.whl
when I command pip install protobuf, I get the error:
Cannot uninstall 'six'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.
If you have the same problem as me, you should do the following commands.
pip install --ignore-installed six
sudo pip install protobuf
According to your comments, you have multiply versions of python
what could happend is that you install the package with pip of anthor python
pip is actually link to script that donwload and install your package.
two possible solutions:
go to $(PYTHONPATH)/Scripts and run pip from that folder that way you insure
you use the correct pip
create alias to pip which points to $(PYTHONPATH)/Scripts/pip and then run pip install
how will you know it worked?
Simple if the new pip is used the package will be install successfully, otherwise the package is already installed
I installed the protobuf with this command:
conda install -c anaconda protobuf=2.6.1
(you should check the version of protobuf)
In my case, MacOS has the permission control.
sudo -H pip3 install protobuf
I had this problem to when I had a google.py file in my project files.
It is quite easy to reproduce.
main.py: import tensorflow as tf
google.py: print("Protobuf error due to google.py")
Not sure if this is a bug and where to report it.
