'Activate Command not found'


I attempted the following procedures to setup a conda environment for arcgis. The environment set-up correctly and I was prompted to activate the environment by typing "activate esri101" to which I was prompted...

$ activate esri101
sh.exe": activate: command not found

I'm a 3 out of 10 on the newbie to expert scale. I've tried setting my path as specified here to no avail. I don't know where exactly to go from here.

EDIT: I retried it again today and it seemed to work


Solution

  • On a Linux/MacOSX environment, you must type (Documentation here)

    $ source activate esri101
    

    that is the Linux/MacOSX equivalent to the

    activate esri101
    

    that you would use on Windows
