Ubuntu Server in VirtualBox. I am trying to install VirtualEnv to start learning Flask and bottle. Some details of my setup.
vks@UbSrVb:~$ cat /etc/os-release
NAME="Ubuntu"
VERSION="12.04.2 LTS, Precise Pangolin"
ID=ubuntu
ID_LIKE=debian
PRETTY_NAME="Ubuntu precise (12.04.2 LTS)"
VERSION_ID="12.04"
vks@UbSrVb:~$ python --version
Python 2.7.3
vks@UbSrVb:~$ echo $VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON
/usr/bin/python
vks@UbSrVb:~$ echo $VIRTUALENV_PYTHON
vks@UbSrVb:~$
When I boot my Virtual Machine, I get the following error on my console
/usr/bin/python: No module named virtualenvwrapper
virtualenvwrapper.sh: There was a problem running the initialization hooks.
If Python could not import the module virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader,
check that virtualenv has been installed for
VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python and that PATH is
set properly.
When i try to initialize a virtualenv I get the following errors
vks@UbSrVb:~/dropbox/venv$ virtualenv try1
New python executable in try1/bin/python3.2
Also creating executable in try1/bin/python
Traceback (most recent call last):

bin include lib
vks@UbSrVb:~/dropbox/venv$
My .bashrc entries
export WORKON_HOME='~/dropbox/venv/'
source '/usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh'
Q1 - As per the error at bootup, How do I ensure virtualenv is installed for VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python and that PATH is set properly ?
Q2 - Even with sudo I get the same "Read-only file system" Error ?
I have tried installing virtualenv using pip and then apt-get, just to hit and try.
Try setting your WORKON_HOME global to another path (~/.virtualenvs) for example a see if that works, maybe the problem is with that shared directory, are you using windows? If you are, try installing ntfs-3g, see https://askubuntu.com/questions/70281/why-does-my-ntfs-partition-mount-as-read-only
Also in my profile configuration file I like to detect first if virtualenvwrapper is installed:
if which virtualenvwrapper.sh &> /dev/null; then
WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
# path to virtualenvwrapper, in my case
source /usr/local/share/python/virtualenvwrapper.sh
fi
I had the problem where my pip
was for a different version of python than the one I wanted to use.
$ python -V
Python 2.7.5+
$ pip -V
pip 1.5.4 from /usr/local/lib/python3.3/dist-packages (python 3.3)
So when I used pip
to install virtualenv
and virtualenvwrapper
, the new python packages were put in python3.3
's dist-packages, so of course my python2.7
couldn't find them!
To fix this, I had to use the appropriate version of pip, in my case it was pip2
.
$ pip2 -V
pip 1.5.4 from /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages (python 2.7)
So make sure you are using the appropriate version of pip
.
