Problem

pipenv install requests fails

Expected result

requests is installed
OR
a clear error message is shown

Actual result

When possible, provide the verbose output (--verbose), especially for locking and dependencies resolving issues.

This happens when you try use pipenv to create a virtualenv from the root directory. This is not an intended usage and is an edge case. We have plans to improve the messsaging here

janzankowski · 2018-08-28T09:04:47Z

+1 to fixing this. Very cryptic indeed.

Kilo59 · 2018-11-08T16:58:12Z

Have there been any updates for this problem?

techalchemy · 2018-11-08T20:07:59Z

We don't vendor pip 9 and we have improved error messaging so I would have to suggest upgrading pipenv if you encounter this and filing a new issue if it persists
