Installing Python Virtual Environment using VirtualEnvWrapper

After installing python virtual environment, you may encounter the following errors

/usr/local/bin/python: No module named virtualenvwrapper

This occurs when you install virtualenv using pip3 install virtualenvwrapper without sudo. The installation instead of installing the virtualenvwrapper in the /usr/local/bin directory, installs it in the ~/.local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh.

/usr/local/bin/python: No module named virtualenvwrapper virtualenvwrapper.sh: There was a problem running the initialization hooks.

If Python could not import the module virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader, check that virtualenvwrapper has been installed for VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python and that PATH is set properly.

This is likely because your python path is not correctly configured. It should be fixed by adding VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3 to your .bashrc
