Installed virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper: Python says no module named virtualenvwrapper

macos, python, virtualenv, virtualenvwrapper

Solution

I've managed to get this working after having the same problem you've described here by editing my ~/.bash_profile and adding this:

export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/code/.virtualenvs
export PROJECT_HOME=$HOME/code
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_VIRTUALENV=/usr/local/bin/virtualenv
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_VIRTUALENV_ARGS='--no-site-packages'

source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

Save, close.

then:

$ source ~/.bash_profile

and:

$ mkvirtualenv test

Problem

Lots of other threads about similar issues, but none that I could find where quite the same case as mine. So, here goes: Things I did: - Ran: `sudo easy_install pip` - Ran: `sudo pip install virtualenv` - Ran: `sudo pip install virtualenvwrapper` Current State: .bash_profile ``` export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH export PIP_DOWNLOAD_CACHE=$HOME/.pip/cache export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs export PIP_VIRTUALENV_BASE=$WORKON_HOME export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python ``` Running `mkvirtualenv test` results in: ``` New python executable in trunk/bin/python Installing setuptools, pip...done. /usr/bin/python: No module named virtualenvwrapper ``` Manually inspecting '/usr/local/bin' shows that virtualenvwrapper.sh exists - Unlike some other questions I saw about this, I get no message about virtualenvwrapper when I start a new terminal window - Running 'which python' results in: `/usr/bin/python` What I've tried: - Inspecting my path to make sure it looks like it is supposed to - Reinstalling pip, then using the reinstalled pip to reinstall virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper Any help getting this working would be very much appreciated.
