无法从environment.yml创建conda env

Question

The documentation seems clear that I should do this:

conda env create -f environment.yml
#
# To activate this environment, use
#
#     $ conda activate d2v
#
# To deactivate an active environment, use
#
#     $ conda deactivate

But then conda activate d2v says "Could not find conda environment: d2v" and there is indeed no sign of d2v in the environments list. This has been a recurring issue across several systems and in fact I've never managed to create an env from environment.yml. How can I begin to debug this?

At least the manual approach conda create --name d2v still works.

Here's my conda info:

Try this >

• sudo ln -s /home//miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh /etc/profile.d/conda.sh
• export PATH="/home//miniconda3/bin:$PATH"
