Hi @wilson, Thanks for your question! The minimum Python version for the 0.21.x releases of rasa X is Python 3.5.4.

I’d recommend upgrading to Python 3.6 though because 3.5 will no longer be supported as of the upcoming 0.22.0 release.

I hope that helps

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

It seems that you called pip --version, whereas your newly installed would probably have to be called with pip3.6 --version. In any case, can you try to pip3.6 install rasa-x --extra-index-url https://pypi.rasa.com/simple?

Hi,

The problem has been solved. Thanks.
