I've had issues with installing django dynamic scraper on Windows (pillow installation was causing problems..), but found it works perfectly well on python 3.5.3. As I am currently using python 3.7, I thought it'd be a good idea to work with django dynamic scraper in a virtual environment which uses python 3.5.3.

I installed both versions of python (3.7. and 3.5.3) and set up the environment variables. However, when I tried making a new virtual environment with:

virtualenv --python='C:/Python35/python.exe' environment1

I get this error:

The path 'C:/Python35/python.exe' (from --python='C:/Python35/python.exe') does not exist

I've also tried this:

virtualenv -p python3.5.3 environment1

but got:

The path python3.5.3 (from --python=python3.5.3) does not exist

would appreciate any suggestions on how to fix this.

  • Have you tried `py -3.5 -m venv environment1`? – mx0 Oct 21 '18 at 10:21
  • I got this: Python 3.5 not found! Installed Pythons found by py Launcher for Windows -3.7-64 * Requested Python version (3.5) not installed, use -0 for available pythons Its a bit weird since my Python3.5.3 is also in enviroment path, and I can see it in the start menue. – T the shirt Oct 21 '18 at 10:30
  • It actually worked. I messed something up with the installations, so once I reinstalled 3.7 and 3.5.3, your suggestion worked like a charm. Thanks! – T the shirt Oct 21 '18 at 11:12

Are you sure python.exe in your desired location? Some time it appears to be named as py.exe Kindly cross check and for reference you can check here
