-bash: /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh: No such file or directory


I can't figure out where the shell is trying to run /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh upon server login. I want virtualenvwrapper permanently uninstalled, not just removed from the shell instance. I thought I uninstalled it with pip uninstall virtualenvwrapper, but every time I log into the server I get the error -bash: /usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh: No such file or directory, as if there is some sort of leftover artifact. Yesterday I did a lot of tinkering and I can't remember all the changes I made or how I made this happen. Where is it executing the search for virtualenvwrapper.sh?

Solution

  • There are a number of files that might be run when you login to your terminal if you are using the bash shell.

    You should check ~/.bashrc, ~/.bash_profile, ~/.bash_login and ~/.profile for "/usr/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh".

    Likely one of those files is being run on login and contains the missing script which you uninstalled.
