Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted in the virtual...












0















I tried to make a python virtualenvironment using virtualenv in
I type virtuelenv env --python=python3
I get an error



PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted: '/mnt/d/venv/bin/python3'



So I used the command with sudo and therefore type sudo virtualenv env --python=python3



The command works this time, now I activate the environment and try to install something using pip, I get



Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted



I know for a fact that if use pip with sudo, it will install packages for the global site packages and no the site packages of the virtual environment. I want to install things to the virtual environment.



I am running ubuntu bionic on WSL, I used to run ubuntu xenial and didn't face this problem.



please advise.
