Answer 1

The problem is that you are trying to install GraphLab Create in Python 3 environment instead of Python 2 environment. Refer to this link --> https://turi.com/download/install-graphlab-create-command-line.html and read the installation process carefully mentioned in option2.

The best method I found to install GraphLab Create is to create a python 2 virtual environment using virtualenv and then installing via pip install.

Note: I wouldn't post the product license keys publicly just as a precaution.

Answer 2

I got the issue resolved. From your conda terminal create a virtual env.. with conda create -n gl-env python=2.7 command. Please make sure you add python=2.7 at the end. Then use the typical graphlab create command with your email and product key.

Note: It's a version compatibility issue.
