site-packages folder of virtualenv is not correctly read #4

Closed mshama closed 4 years ago

mshama commented 4 years ago

on Windows when trying to execute the script, the site-packages folder of the calling python is used and not of the python executable specified in the -p argument.

Debugging showed that in _run_subprocessfor windows when using sys.executable in subprocess.Popen, the sys.path has the value of sys.executable and not of the venv. I have tested using args=command_line.split() without executable=sys.executable and it worked as expected

Thanks all involved- will close this.
