Error when running in Nitrous.IO about khinsider

[Maverynthia]

I think I remember getting that error and I solved it by using Python 3.0 as I couldn't figure it out.

I've never used Nitrous (never even heard of it until now, actually), so I don't really know what this is about. I'd assume maybe it doesn't like installing libraries through the actual program? One possibility is that it runs Python scripts with different permissions than what's required to access the lib directory. Maybe I should add an error message for that...

Try running these commands in whatever console Nitrous gives you (with sudo if it seems to require it):

pip install requests
pip install beautifulsoup4

Then see if it gets mad at you and report back.

No, run it in the Linux console. If Nitrous gives you one of those. It boasts about "root access" on the site, so I'd assume it does.

That's what I tried initially, still didn't work

[obskyr]

And Nitrous has pip, right? And you tried running with sudo?

@lucasone Here, check this StackOverflow post out. Instead of pip install, try pip install --user.

Psst, @lucasone, how's it looking?

It looks there are restrictions after all on Nitrous.IO, so I ended up giving up. All the packages weren't working right, and some would not install due to folders actually being blocked/removed immediately from the filesystem. So I suppose it's best to close this issue.
