Setting up conda #151

Closed srmcpher closed 2 years ago

srmcpher commented 3 years ago

Hi, I have been trying to set up my computer to get started on the handbook but I seem to be struggling with setting up or activating conda. I set up the environment following the instructions as stated and it seemed to be working like it said it would. However, when I closed the terminal and opened a new terminal it said the command was not found. When I tried to set up the environment again it said that it was already set up and I can only update so I am not sure what I did wrong or if there is just an issue.

Appreciate any help!

this sounds like the path was not set quite right, what gets printed when you do a:

~/miniconda3/bin/conda init
srmcpher commented 3 years ago

This is what comes out: -bash: /home/srmcpher/miniconda/bin/conda: No such file or directory

please note that the command had miniconda3 in it,

whereas your command only has miniconda

Sorry, forgot to add that, this is what comes out with miniconda3: no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/condabin/conda no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/bin/conda no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/bin/conda-env no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/bin/activate no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/bin/deactivate no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/etc/fish/conf.d/conda.fish no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/shell/condabin/Conda.psm1 no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/shell/condabin/conda-hook.ps1 no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/lib/python3.8/site-packages/xontrib/conda.xsh no change /home/srmcpher/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.csh no change /home/srmcpher/.bashrc No action taken.
