I recently installed OS X Mavericks. I can access my previously created virtual environments, but I have trouble creating a new one:
Christophers-MacBook-Pro-2:~ christopherspears$ mkvirtualenv bottle_todo
-bash: /usr/local/bin/virtualenv: /usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
I looked into /usr/local/bin/virtualenv:
#!/usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7
# EASY-INSTALL-ENTRY-SCRIPT: 'virtualenv==1.10.1','console_scripts','virtualenv'
__requires__ = 'virtualenv==1.10.1'
import sys
from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
if __name__ == '__main__':
sys.exit(
load_entry_point('virtualenv==1.10.1', 'console_scripts', 'virtualenv')()
)
Sure enough the path /usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7 does not exit. Earlier on, I had this issue:
Terminal issue with virtualenvwrapper after Mavericks Upgrade
I tried updating virtualenv to no avail:
christohersmbp2:~ christopherspears$ pip install virtualenv
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): virtualenv in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
Cleaning up...
christohersmbp2:~ christopherspears$ pip install --upgrade virtualenv
Requirement already up-to-date: virtualenv in /Library/Python/2.7/site-packages
Cleaning up...
christohersmbp2:~ christopherspears$ mkvirtualenv test
-bash: /usr/local/bin/virtualenv: /usr/local/opt/python/bin/python2.7: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
I fixed it. I had to uninstall and reinstall virtualenv:
christohersmbp2:bin christopherspears$ sudo pip uninstall virtualenv
