Expected result

Expected no error logging while simply creating a virtualenv

Actual result

virtualenv creation appears to have worked, but unexpected errors were emitted.

Steps to replicate

1. Run pipenv --two to create a Python 2.7 virtualenv
2. Observe errors

$ pipenv --support

Hey @commandtab,

We did a quick check and this issue looks very darn similar to

• #3228 - 2018.11.14 regression: `pipenv lock -r` with named Pipfile
• #3226 - Don't disable --user when --system is passed
• #3225 - Fix encoding issues and python discovery

This could be a coincidence, but if any of these issues solves your problem then I did a good job :smile:

If not, the maintainers will get to this issue shortly.

I was able to work around this by specifying the path to the Python executable, i.e.

$ pipenv install --dev --python `which python3.6`

Looks like this is fixed in pythonfinder v1.1.9, but Pipenv is currently vendoring 1.0.2
