Pycharm Virenv AttributeError: module 'pip' has no attribute 'main' occured!

Answered

Now, I just have updated 'pip' on Pycharm VirtualEnv. 

But I can't update others packages and I have received messages that "AttributeError: module 'pip' has no attribute 'main'". 

Also I have received that "Try to run this command from the system terminal. Make sure that you use the correct version of 'pip' installed for your Python interpreter located at '/Users/dooseop/PycharmProjects/automatic_file_upload/venv/bin/python'." 

Please help me.

How can I solve this problem?

 

Following image show me the problem messages.

Hi! There seems to be a problem with pip installation, could you please run easy_install --upgrade pip? Has it helped?

Thank you for your help. I have solved this problem that recreate virtual environment. 

but, still I don't know what problem it is... 

I just have updated from pip version 9.0.1 to version 10.0.0b2 on 'Project Interpreter'. 

 

* My Computer Environment. 

- MAC OS High Sierra 10.13.4 

- Pycharm Version 2018.1

Uh, I see, there're some API changes in 10.0.0b2 and it breaks our integration. The fix is ready (PY-29395) and in testing right now, we'll release 2018.1.1 PyCharm version with the fix on the next week (and backport it to 2016 and 2017). I am sorry for the inconvenience!

Pip 10.0.* doesn't support main.

You have to downgrade to pip 9.0.3.

I have pip version 9.0.3 but still can't install anything from PyCharm.

To fix this, open terminal, go to your venv's bin directory, and downgrade its pip.

 

cd /venv/bin

pip install --upgrade pip==9.0.3

Thanks Muhd that worked for me. People should make sure to call ./pip install --upgrade pip==9.0.3 from within the virtualenv/bin directory since pip still defaults to the first one on the PATH (on mac anyway).

@Asaf Erlich  ppl can't stay on pip 9.x for years, its wrong

 

Have tested Idea 2018.1.3 with python module - everything works fine with no problems

 

Python plugin: 2018.1.181.4668.68

Python: v3.6.4:d48eceb

Pip: pip 10.0.1

Had the same problem, using the newest pre release version of PyCharm fixed it for me.

Using IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate in the latest version with the Python plugin. It looks like the fix isn't available for it.

The solution is simple:

Install it directly from the command prompt:

--> pip install tqdm

and That's all folks!
