Failed to install on mac about aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup

Hi @mzoz ,

Thanks for reaching out. As the message "ERROR: This script cannot be executed inside a virtual environment." indicates, you were inside a virtualenv to begin with. The scripts expect you to have exited virtualenvs you might have been inside.

Hi @rahulrajaram thanks for your quick reply but I'm not executing the command in virtualenv at first place, I still get the same error message even if I opened a new terminal window and execute it:

mz Desktop $ ./aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/bundled_installer

Thanks for your response. It is very likely that there is a bash statement to activate your virtualenv in your bashrc/zshrc.

For safe measure, in a new tab, can you check the output of the following?

echo $VIRTUAL_ENV

Is it empty?

[mzoz]

Hi @rahulrajaram it's not empty it returns

/Users/mz/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User

[mzoz]

Hi @rahulrajaram I just run deactivate and then run the script and it works! The problem is caused by some canopy virtual env activate commands in my .profile file, thank you so much for your time and help!

[rahulrajaram]

Glad you found your problem. Thanks. I'll close this issue now.

If someone is still facing this issue and you are using VS code built in shell. it does not which shell. I tried git bash, cmd and powershell. All of them were having the same issue.

I moved the download folder to another location and tried CMD outside the VS code and it worked!
:)
I hope it helps someone in the future
