Module Not Found - virtual Environment

Question

I am getting in error I am currently using mac

I have created a virtual environment - name of virtual environment: venv

Even if I have installed the modules I am getting module not found error.

I have tried many things pip list gave me output which shows that the pandas is installed

I also did -> sys.path

The path to my virtual environment is this: /Users/nidhivanjare/Desktop/ML/venv

Answer 1

The reason might be because you transferred your virtual environment folder to another location (or you copied it from another computer)

This is how to fix it:

1. Open the /Scripts/activate file inside your virtual environment folder.
2. Go to the line that has this:

VIRTUAL_ENV="$(if [ "$OSTYPE" "==" "cygwin" ]; then cygpath -u 'Z:\<your NEW folder>'; else echo '/Z/<your NEW folder>'; fi;)"

3. Change the path to the new location of your virtual environment.

   Change it from

Z:\<your OLD folder> and /Z/<your OLD folder>

 to

Z:\<your NEW folder> and /Z/<your NEW folder>

4. If you are using the Command Prompt of Windows, you also have to change the path in the file /Scripts/activate.bat

set "VIRTUAL_ENV=Z:\<folder>"

Answer 2

The standard venv needs a dot before the activate command, like . ./venv/bin/activate . ./venv/bin/activate . The first dot is your shell's source command.
