PyCharm: Install Packages Failed

Question

I need some packages to be installed. No matter what direction I try, it only gets worse.

Please help.

Please check the permissions and owner of that directory. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

Answer 1

pip install --user <package-name> worked for me.

Sudo not required.

Answer 2

Did you check file permissions pack for your user ?

You can run the below command to change the ownership of directory (/Users/doekewartena/Library/Caches/pip) to your current user (doekewartena) :

$ sudo chown -R doekewartena /Users/doekewartena/Library/Caches/pip
