I am trying to install numpy from a wheel file. The wheel name is numpy-1.16.4-cp36-cp36m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl

However when I do:

pip install --user --no-index --find-links /my/folder  /my/folder/numpy-1.16.4-cp36-cp36m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl

I got

Ignoring indexes: https://pypi.python.org/simple
numpy-1.16.4-cp36-cp36m-manylinux1_x86_64.whl is not a supported wheel on this platform.

Now I have seen answers like this one where it says to verify that the "cp36" matches my system

python
Python 3.6.3 |Anaconda, Inc.| (default, Oct 13 2017, 12:02:49) 
[GCC 7.2.0] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

As you can see my python is 3.6.3 so the cp36 part seems to match

What else can I do to understand this problem and solve it?

EDIT: As per request

uname -a
Linux login01 3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Oct 24 16:09:20 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

EDIT2:

I noticed some strange error messages with other packages so I did

pip --version
pip 8.1.2 from /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages (python 2.7)

Isn't is strange. The python --version is 3.6.3

Also , there seems not to be a pip3

  • Any particular reason why you need a `--user` install from a wheel file when you are running anaconda? – FlyingTeller Aug 27 '21 at 08:50
  • @FlyingTeller No. I was just instructed to do so. Does it have any influence? – KansaiRobot Aug 27 '21 at 08:55
  • If using Conda, preferably use Conda to install packages: `conda install numpy` or something along those lines. With `pip`, you're mixing up two package managers. That might work, but it may also cause issues. – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 08:58
  • `--user` shouldn't hamper your installation; I don't think that is an issue. – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 08:59
  • Is there a reason you want to install this specific wheel/binary of NumPy? Why not Conda or Pip find a NumPy version for you, and install that? Often, you can even indicate to Conda or Pip a version or version range for a package. – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 09:00
  • What is the result of `uname -a`? That will give us some information about your system, so we can see if that matches. – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 09:01
  • this particular computer does not (and will not by policy that I do not control) have access to internet. I am provided with the wheel file – KansaiRobot Aug 27 '21 at 09:02
  • Please add the information to your question, not in the comments. – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 09:07
  • try running `python3 -m pip debug --verbose` to get the list of compatible tags for your system and check if that matches with the one you have. – heretolearn Aug 27 '21 at 09:08
  • I noticed something and updated the question. Please take a look – KansaiRobot Aug 27 '21 at 09:32

    Does `python -m pip --version` give you the correct pip? – FlyingTeller Aug 27 '21 at 09:37
  • @FlyingTeller Yes! It seems so! `pip 9.0.1 from /spring/envs/r0.3.0/lib/python3.6/site-packages (python 3.6)` – KansaiRobot Aug 27 '21 at 09:39

    so I guess I should replace all pips by `python -m pip`?? – KansaiRobot Aug 27 '21 at 09:41
  • Either that or you could just install pip3 using `apt-get -y install python3-pip` – heretolearn Aug 27 '21 at 09:44
  • It is a bit odd that you have Python from Anaconda, but then the system pip. But if `python -m pip` works, use that. I wouldn't use a system-installed `python3-pip` package as suggested, since that would also conflict with the Anaconda version. (Plus you may not be able to install system packages.) – 9769953 Aug 27 '21 at 09:55
  • *always* update pip to the latest available version `python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip`. As the pip version also determines which wheels can be installed. – niid Dec 01 '22 at 14:03
