Pipenv-Error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip._internal'












6














Today, I installed Pipenv via



pip install pipenv



As mentioned in the documentation I went to a test directory and created a new virtual environment using



pipenv shell



and tried to install a package via



pipenv install numpy



I got the following error message:



Installing numpy…

Error: An error occurred while installing numpy!
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/florian/.local/share/virtualenvs/test-bJfQ6Jzk/bin/pip", line 7, in <module>
from pip._internal import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pip._internal'


This error occurs even after reinstalling pipenv, deleting all files and recreate the environment. It also had no impact if I ran pipenv install numpy inside or outside the environment.



Python 3.6.3

Pipenv 11.10.1



Thank you in advance.

  • Try force reinstalling pipenv. This error is encountered while updating pip too. --force-reinstall i.e.

After trying around for a while, I fully reinstalled pip. This solved the problem and everything is working now as expected.



Before providing the two commands, which solved the problem, I want to specify some things:




  • I'm on MacOS

  • python stands for python3 (added an alias for that, because I only use python3)

  • pip is on version 9 and NOT 10


Here are both commands:



sudo pip uninstall pip
sudo python get-pip.py

    I have had the same issue (python 3.5/Ubuntu 16.04LTS). Reinstalling pip with:



    sudo apt install python-pip python-pip3 --reinstall


    didn't solve the issue with me.



    What worked in my case was reinstalling pipenv itself, from pip:



    sudo pip3 install pipenv --force-reinstall


    If you are running python 2.x or if your system is different than mine, you can try to replace pip3 with pip in the command:



    sudo pip install pipenv --force-reinstall
