Unable to install AWS Elastic Beanstalk CLI (Win10, Python 3.6, Pip 9.0.1)

Question

I am trying to install awsebcli on my machine and I am unable to run the command

eb --version

It shows this error:

\'eb\' is not         


        

Answer 1

This worked for me:

sudo -H pip3 install awsebcli --upgrade --ignore-installed six

Answer 2

I figured out the issue. It looks like I needed to add this to my environment variables:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts

Even though it had the other C:\Users\amirs\... path as well.

Answer 3

This PATH worked for me...

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Python\Scripts;
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\Scripts;
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python36\Scripts;
C:\Program Files\Amazon\AWSCLI

Answer 4

I had the exact same issue. It worked for me when I added:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python36\Scripts;

However, if it is still not working, you should check the specific name of the maps since it is not the same in \Roaming as in \Local In \Local it was named Python38-32, and in \Roaming it was named Python38.

Answer 5

If you are here and it is still not working you need (this possibly is since the new update)... you need to add the following in your Windows Environment variable path:

%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\Scripts\

Answer 6

If you happened to be using Conda for your Python installation, then you might have to add the following path for Elastic Beanstalk to work:

C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\Anaconda3\Scripts
