Hi, After I upgrade pip using the following command in Ubuntu 16 terminal: sudo apt install python3-dev python3-pip pip3 --version

I got the following exception: wilson@wilson-VirtualBox:~$ pip --version Traceback (most recent call last): File “/home/wilson/.local/bin/pip”, line 7, in from pip._internal.main import main ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘pip._internal’ Error in sys.excepthook: Traceback (most recent call last): File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport_python_hook.py”, line 63, in apport_excepthook from apport.fileutils import likely_packaged, get_recent_crashes File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/init.py”, line 5, in from apport.report import Report File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/report.py”, line 30, in import apport.fileutils File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/fileutils.py”, line 23, in from apport.packaging_impl import impl as packaging File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apport/packaging_impl.py”, line 23, in import apt File “/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/apt/init.py”, line 23, in import apt_pkg ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘apt_pkg’

Original exception was: Traceback (most recent call last): File “/home/wilson/.local/bin/pip”, line 7, in from pip._internal.main import main ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘pip._internal’

I am using Python 3.6.8. Please advice.

Regards, Wilson

This is probably something you should ask on Stack Overflow since its not really rasa related but pip3 install --user --upgrade pip might fix your issue
