psutil fails to install on python3.6 and Ubuntu16.04

KorewaKiyo commented 6 years ago

install psutil with pip on python3.6 gives this error I've tried installing different versions of psutil with the same error

Command "/usr/bin/python3.6 -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pip-build-_0xq2q7o/psutil/setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('\r\n', '\n');f.close();exec(compile(code, __file__, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-k4askr37-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-_0xq2q7o/psutil/

Can you post the install log that pip complains with here?

giampaolo commented 6 years ago

You guys need Python header files. On Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install python-dev. On RedHat like distros it should be sudo yum install python-devel.

Tommatheussen commented 6 years ago

I was just about to comment the same, after I read the install file: https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/INSTALL.rst However, if you have multiple versions installed (like me, I have python 3.4.3 and 3.5.4 installed), you need to specify a more granular version, like so: sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev After that, it installed without issues

KorewaKiyo commented 6 years ago

Thanks that worked!

rdhara commented 6 years ago

@Tommatheussen Thank you that worked for me as well!

gnarizzy commented 6 years ago

One more note that may be useful other people with this issue:

I'm using a RedHat distro and Python 2.7, and sudo yum install python-devel wasn't resolving the issue. I eventually realized it was because, for some reason, that installed python-devel for Python 2.6.

After a bit of googling I was able to resolve this issue with sudo yum install python27-devel.x86_64, which installed python_devel for Python 2.7 after which pip install psutil succeeded.

lain0 commented 6 years ago

ubuntu 16.04 i helped

sudo apt install python3.6-dev
python3 -m pip install psutil

Great man. Thank you !

sudo yum install python-develdoesnt work while you are using python 3 ,So try sudo yum install python3-devel incase if you are running python 3 .. It solved my issue :)

SumanthMeenan commented 5 years ago

@Kosemii I got this error when trying to install tfds-nightly to install tensorflow datasets library. This solved my issue: sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev if you are working in 3.6 then replace 3.5 with 3.6

vhoulbreque commented 5 years ago

I had the same error using a virtual environment. And doing sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev did not solve it at first.

To solve it, I had to:

deactivate the virtualenv
remove the virtualenv
sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev
recreate the virtualenv

KorewaKiyo commented 5 years ago

Hi There,

While I appreciate the help, this issue has been resolved for a year now,

And essentially duplicate comments are being posted,

Please refrain from posting unless it's significantly different than previous comments.

Thanks

Environment: CentOS 7.7 python3-devel-3.6.8 Python 3.6.8 pip3 9.0.3

It turns out the virtualenv command is a python2 construct. The Ansible Tower docs are wrong in their recommendation: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/upgrade-migration-guide/virtualenv.html


sudo virtualenv -p /opt/rh/rh-python36/root/usr/bin/python3 /opt/my-envs/custom-venv
source /opt/my-envs/custom-venv/bin/activate 
sudo /opt/my-envs/custom-venv/bin/pip install psutil

Do this instead:

sudo python3 -m venv /opt/my-envs/custom-venv
source /opt/my-envs/custom-venv/bin/activate 
sudo /opt/my-envs/custom-venv/bin/pip install psutil

You guys need Python header files. On Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install python-dev. On RedHat like distros it should be sudo yum install python-devel.

Thank you very much. it served me

igunultas commented 4 years ago

if you guys still have this issue just install gcc to your server

Jerrisk commented 4 years ago

if you try exec pip3 install lmdb , you can try yum install python3-devel

I was just about to comment the same, after I read the install file: https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/blob/master/INSTALL.rst However, if you have multiple versions installed (like me, I have python 3.4.3 and 3.5.4 installed), you need to specify a more granular version, like so: sudo apt-get install python3.5-dev After that, it installed without issues

thank you, it solves the issue :)

OS: CentOS Linux release 8.0.1905 (Core) Python: 3.6 Clues：SystemExit: error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1 Problem solved.

ym install -y gcc gcc-c++ libgcc platform-python-devel

One more note that may be useful other people with this issue:

I'm using a RedHat distro and Python 2.7, and sudo yum install python-devel wasn't resolving the issue. I eventually realized it was because, for some reason, that installed python-devel for Python 2.6.

After a bit of googling I was able to resolve this issue with sudo yum install python27-devel.x86_64, which installed python_devel for Python 2.7 after which pip install psutil succeeded.

For python 3+: sudo yum install python3-devel.x86_64

Look at the previous comments, in particular https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/issues/1143#issuecomment-334694641. On Windows you don't need to do that as pip will simply get the wheels/binaries instead of the tarball. I'm going to lock this conversation as there's already a solution and produces too many comments.
