How come I can not activate my Virtual Python Environment with 'source env/bin/activate' command?


I am trying to activate my Virtual Python Environment to use with Pylons but I think I am executing the commands wrong.

jem@jem-laptop:~$ source env/bin/activate
bash: env/bin/activate: No such file or directory

What am I doing wrong? How should I do it right?


Solution

  • I realize I had to do

    jem@jem-laptop:~$ ls
    Desktop    examples.desktop  Public           shortener.rb
    Documents  Mac4Lin_v1.0      ruby-1.9.1-p378  Templates
    Downloads  Music             rubygems-1.3.7   Videos
    Dropbox    Pictures          setcolors.vim    virtualenv.py
    

    And here we see virtualenv.py. From here I just had to

    jem@jem-laptop:~$ virtualenv ENV
    New python executable in ENV/bin/python
    Installing setuptools............done.
    

    And then

    jem@jem-laptop:~$ source ENV/bin/activate
    (ENV)jem@jem-laptop:~$ deactivate
    jem@jem-laptop:~$ 
    

    Solved :)
