Hello, I get a strange error when installing Prefect on a VM (see picture bellow) What can I try ? Environment : Ubuntu 18.04, default python 2.7 I changed to 3.6.9, tried to install with pip and pip3
a
@Emma Rizzi you could try run it in a virtual environment. But I wonder: are you trying to set up an ECS agent?
e
@Anna Geller ok I'll try this! I wanted to try a local agent, I'm working on Wekeo and can't deploy any kind of elastic cluster
a
Gotcha - a virtual environment with Python >= 3.8 would be a good thing to try then.
If you set up now, I wouldn’t go for Python version lower than 3.8 unless you really need to.

This looks like two Python installations. Did you try doing
where python
?

I finally made it worked just now, the python installations were really broken with many conflicts betweens versions (apt, pip, python...) I started again from a new instance with python 3.9 and didn't need a venv apparently Thanks! 🦜
