Build Failed 10.13.5 (After Troubleshooting Step) about aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup

[rahulrajaram]

@dunhampa , can you confirm the following are the troubleshooting steps you have alluded to in the Issue title?

brew install zlib openssl readline
CFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix openssl)/include -I$(brew --prefix readline)/include -I$(xcrun --show-sdk-path)/usr/include" LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix openssl)/lib -L$(brew --prefix readline)/lib -L$(brew --prefix zlib)/lib"

[dunhampa]

@rahulrajaram yes, I just reconfirmed that is the specific commands I ran for troubleshooting

I am wondering if I am having issues with multiple python versions/installs.

Is my anaconda3 install causing a conflict?:

(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$ which python
/Users/peterdunham/anaconda3/bin/python
(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$

Thanks

[dunhampa]

Another thought - do I need install pyenv as a prereq?

[rahulrajaram]

@dunhampa ,

The answer to both your questions is "no".

The core of the problem is certainly that OpenSSL cannot be found during Python installation (despite it being installed). Can you tell me what the output of the following command is?

brew --prefix openssl

[dunhampa]

@rahulrajaram thanks for replies

output of brew --prefix openssl

is

/usr/local/opt/openssl

[rahulrajaram]

@dunhampa, thanks.

Now I am not sure what the problem is.

In the meantime, you can use the Python associated with Conda and run the following to get around your problem:

pip install virtualenv
</path/to/some/python/on/your/computer> scripts/ebcli_installer.py

Requirement already satisfied: virtualenv in ./.local/lib/python3.7/site-packages (16.7.2)
(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$ /usr/local/bin/python3 ./aws-elastic-beanstalk-cli-setup/scripts/ebcli_installer.py

[dunhampa]

I got a successful install when running

pip**3** install virtualenv

I followed instructions to add to path - but now getting another error

`(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$ source ~/.bash_profile

(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$ eb --version
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/Users/peterdunham/.ebcli-virtual-env/bin/eb", line 6, in
from ebcli.core.ebcore import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'ebcli'
`

Another piece of info is I had another active install in Python 2:

(base) Peters-MacBook-Pro-4:~ peterdunham$ eb --version EB CLI 3.14.6 (Python 2.7.1)

[rahulrajaram]

Is base a virtual env? If so, can you retry eb --version after deactivating base?

[dunhampa]

base is not a virtual env. I must have installed at system level at some point.

I tried to install within a virtual environment and get the following error:

ERROR: This script cannot be executed inside a virtual environment.

[rahulrajaram]

I must have installed at system level at some point.

Can you clarify what exactly it is that you are talking about?

I tried to install within a virtual environment and get the following error:

This is expected behaviour. You are expected to not already be inside a vrtualenv when you run the ebcli_installer.
