ImportError: No module named 'virtualenvwrapper'

Since I upgraded to OS X 10.9, I get this message when opening a new terminal:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named 'virtualenvwrapper'
virtualenvwrapper.sh: There was a problem running the initialization hooks. If
Python could not import the module virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader, check that
virtualenv has been installed for VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python and
that PATH is set properly.

The problem seems to be related to virtualenv, but I actually don't need it anymore. So if uninstalling it can solve the problem, I can do it.

Solution

  • You do not have virtualenvwrapper, you can install it using pip or you can download the whole tar.zip file from pypi, and then run python setup.py. The best method is to use pip.
