  • 1.  Error in installing PIP

    Posted 09-27-2018 09:40

    Hi,

    I am getting the following error while trying to upgrade PIP on Unix on z/os. Our admin is saying that I have the authority to bin folder.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    $ python -m pip install --upgrade pip

    You are using pip version 9.0.1, however version 18.0 is available.
    You should consider upgrading via the ‘pip install --upgrade pip’ command.

    You can check whether or not you have write access to the Python install directories by using:

    ls -al /usr/lpp/python/python-2017-04-12-py36/python36

    This will tell you the owning userid and group. You can check the groups you are in using:

    id

    I don’t know the entire set of directories that will need to be modified to install pip, but certainly at least the bin and lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip directories.
