Can you please help?

where is your python 3 coming from? was it installed via brew?

[pankajakhade]

Hello Sriram,

I have python 2.7

ubuntu@ip-172-31-26-208:~$ python --version
Python 2.7.15rc1

And It was not installed via brew. It was installed with below command:

sudo apt-get install python2.7

[pankajakhade]

Can you please suggest the solution?

I've also got the same issue. You should try with alternative by using pip: pip install aws-sam-cli. It worked for me.

[pankajakhade]

Well It did not work for me.

[iriekun]

what error did you get? Do you use python2 or python3?

[bdhandap]

try using pip3. It worked for me. aws/tap/aws-sam-cli brew script installed python3 as dependency but for some weird reason uses pip instead of pip3 to install aws-sam-cli

sudo pip3 install aws-sam-cli

[sriram-mv]

We do not recommend pip as it does not give isolation to your installs. also we have bottles now, which are direct binaries, do try that as well.

brew tap aws/tap
brew install aws-sam-cli

Following is my output and was a fast install.
