Scripts directory is missing from Virtual Environment

Question

There is no directory called Scripts. How can I activate?

Please help me to solve this.

Answer 1

Check the line "Home" in pyvenv.cfg, it can differ from your python interpreter location. In my case it was home = C:\msys64\mingw64\bin, so this caused another project structure without the "Scripts" directory.

You can configure interpreter location in PATH variables and try to create a virtual environment again.

Answer 2

I faced the same issue but after lots of research, i found some outcomes which i want to share with you... Please follow my steps sequentially:

1. python3 -V // check the version of python like 3.8.1
2. sudo apt install python3-venv // for installing the latest virtual environment library
3. python3 -m venv my-project-env //create virtual environment, where you can change name of my-project-env into your requirement name..
4. source my-project-env/bin/activate // activate your evnironment

NOTE: point no-4, please add source word in your command while run point no 4 commands on your terminal.

Answer 3

check bin folder, to activate Virtual environment, theres should be a script under it

you can simply use cmd to activate it by following command

.\Activate

Answer 4

Try

 py -m venv env

instead of

python -m venv env

when creating the virtual env.
