[Python]创建virtualenv失败

Question

I was trying to create a virtualenv on my vagrant centos7 with python3 and the following happens. Is there anything I can do with it? The version of virtualenv is 13.1.2 and python is 3.5.1. Thanks.

$ virtualenv -p python3 venv
Running virtualenv with interpreter /usr/local/bin/python3
Using base prefix '/usr/local'

Answer 1

It is probably the problems with symbolic link at shared folder. I solved it by simply create the venv outside of the shared folder.

Answer 2

You probably have already a venv, try to delete it with

rm -rf yourPath/venv

and for create a new one

python3 -m venv pathToCreateNewVenv
