Might have some suggestions, if you provided any useful details; read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature. Things like version/distro of Linux, anything else you've done/tried so far, etc. Did you read/follow the instructions and perform the pre-install checks?

http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/lates...all-linux.html

::edit::
So you aren't able to install everything that you need before doing this, and you're surprised it's not working?

Manipulate python2 recently?

Hey guys, I'm coming back to this request I recently posted. In addition to this issue I had an issue where I couldn't run yum update, which turned out to be because I installed (or attempted to) a bad epel for my system. I've now fixed it and I'm trying to clean up other mistakes I made when I didn't have the right epel configured in yum

At the time I couldn't do a yum install python-pip so I ended up doing a python get-pip.py instead.

Then I was having issues as stated above. maybe due to the yum issues I was having

After fixing yum and getting my system current I wanted to uninstall pip and try it again using yum, so I ran

"python -m pip uninstall pip setuptools"

that seemed to work as I received no errors.

Now I'm trying to install pip via "yum install python-pip" but it's failing as if its already there. However, if I try running it its not there, and if I try uninstalling it, it says its not installed.

Any suggestions

[root@localhost tmp]# yum erase -y python-pip*

[root@localhost tmp]# pip
-bash: pip: command not found

actually I think I'm good now. will update shortly. I reinstalled pip using get-pip.py, but now that its post the "yum update" running, I think it's behaving better. Trying to install several modules now. so far looks promising.

yep, I'm good. thanks to all for the support

Glad it worked out!
