Where is virtualenvwrapper.sh after pip install?

Question

I\'m trying to setup virtualenvwrapper on OSX, and all the instructions and tutorials I\'ve found tell me to add a source command to .profile, pointing towards virtualenvwra

Answer 1

In OS X 10.8.2, with Python 2.7:

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

Answer 2

Using

find / -name virtualenvwrapper.sh

I got a TON of "permissions denied"s, and exactly one printout of the file location. I missed it until I found that file location when I uninstall/installed it again with pip.

In case you were curious, it was in

/usr/local/share/python/virtualenvwrapper.sh

Answer 3

In my case (OSX El Capitan, version 10.11.5) I needed to edit the .profile like so:

In the terminal:

vim ~/.profile

export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
export MSYS_HOME=C:\msys\1.0
source /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh                                                                                   

And then reload the profile (that it will be availuble in the current session.)

source ~/.profile

Hope it will help someone.

Answer 4

Although this is an OS X question, here's what worked for me on Linux (Red Hat).

My virtualwrapper.sh was in

~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

This is probably because I installed virtualenvwrapper locally, using the --user flag...

pip install --user virtualenvwrapper

...as an alternative to the risky practice of using sudo pip.

I have the same problem. If you have older version of virtualenvwrapper, then pip wont work.

download src from http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenvwrapper/3.6 and python setup.py install. Then the problem solved.
