When i install pip3.6 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple

pip3.6 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple Looking in indexes: https://pypi.org/simple, https://pypi.rasa.com/simple Collecting rasa-x Downloading https://pypi.rasa.com/api/package/rasa-x/rasa-x-0.22.1.tar.gz (1.5MB) … Installing build dependencies … done Getting requirements to build wheel … done ERROR: Exception: … File “”, line 953, in _find_and_load_unlocked ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘setuptools’

The module is there - python36 -> help -> modules does show “setuptools”.

Hi there, can you try updating the package as suggested here?

If you have Python 2 >=2.7.9 or Python 3 >=3.4 installed from python.org, you will already have pip and setuptools, but will need to upgrade to the latest version:

On Linux or OS X:

pip install -U pip setuptools 

On Windows:

python -m pip install -U pip setuptools
3

pip install -U pip setuptools

Requirement already up-to-date: pip in /usr/lib/python3.6/dist-packages (19.3.1) Requirement already up-to-date: setuptools in /usr/lib/python3.6/dist-packages (41.6.0)

What happens if you

pip install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple

or

pip3 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple

Same error.
