How to Fix Python Fatal error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding [Solved]

I had successfully compiled Python3.5 from source. But when I execute ‘python3.5‘ command, I get an error message as “Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding. ImportError: No module named encodings“.

Here’s the complete error message:

# python3.5 Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x00007ff41bf46700 (most recent call first): Aborted (core dumped)

What could be the problem?

The problem might be due to multiple Python installations on your machine and the command ‘python3.5‘ might be referring to libraries that belong to a different version of Python. Well, there could be another reason – the command ‘python3.5‘ is not able to find PYTHON installation path. The below lines will be a good try for this error:

# export PYTHONHOME=/usr/local/lib/python3.5/

# export PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.5/

Note: Make sure to set the correct installation path of Python3.5.

Now, try invoking python3.5 and it should work.

# python3.5 Python 3.5.0 (default, Nov 6 2015, 16:57:04) [GCC 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-11)] on linux Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>>

Python unable to get the locale encoding

Last updated: Feb 20, 2023

# ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘encodings’ in Python

The Python «ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘encodings'» occurs for multiple reasons:

1. Having a glitched virtual environment.
2. Not having Python in your system’s PATH environment variable.
3. Having a corrupted Python installation.

Copied! 
Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'encodings' 

The first thing you should try is to recreate your virtual environment if you have one.

Copied! 
# 👇️ optionally update your requirements.txt file pip freeze > requirements.txt # 👇️ deactivate virtual environment deactivate # 👇️ Remove the old virtual environment folder: macOS and Linux rm -rf venv # 👇️ Remove the old virtual environment folder: Windows rd /s /q "venv" # 👇️ specify correct Python version when creating virtual environment python -m venv venv # 👇️ activate on Unix or MacOS source venv/bin/activate # 👇️ activate on Windows (cmd.exe) venv\Scripts\activate.bat # 👇️ activate on Windows (PowerShell) venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1 # 👇️ install the modules in your requirements.txt file (optional) pip install -r requirements.txt 

If the python -m venv venv command doesn’t work, try the following 2 commands:

Make sure to use the correct activation command depending on your operating system and your shell.

Try running your script with the new virtual environment active.

If the error is not resolved, you might have a corrupted Python installation or Python might not be set up correctly in your system’s PATH environment variable.

# Setting Python in your system’s PATH environment variable

Here is an example of how to correctly set up Python on Windows and add Python to the PATH environment variable in a straightforward way.

Download the installer from the official python.org website.

If you have Python already installed, start the installer and click on «Modify».

You can leave the optional features ticked.

On the «Advanced Options» screen, make sure to tick the «Add Python to environment variables» option.

Once the «Add Python to environment variables» checkbox is checked, click «Install».

Now your Python installation should be set up correctly and Python should be added to your system’s PATH environment variable.

If that didn’t work, your Python installation might be corrupted.

Start the installer again and click on «Uninstall».

Now that you don’t have Python installed on your machine, start the installer again and make sure to tick the «Add python.exe to PATH» option.

The checkbox won’t be checked by default.

Once the «Add python.exe to PATH» checkbox is checked, click on «Install Now».

After the installation, Python will be installed and configured properly.

If you are on Linux or macOS, check if you have the PYTOHNHOME environment variable set to a wrong value.

Copied! 
echo $PYTOHNHOME echo $PYTHONPATH 

If the environment variables are incorrectly set, you can try to remove them and restart your machine.

If that doesn’t help, try reinstalling Python from the official python.org website.

# Conclusion

To solve the «ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘encodings'» error, make sure:

1. Your virtual environment is not glitched by recreating it.
2. Python is set up correcting in your system’s PATH environment variable.
3. Your Python installation is not corrupted.

There seems to be a problem with how Python has been installed. Also, we do not officially support the Deepin distribution. Please post on our community forum over at http://gns3.com/community for help.

I’m dealing with this issue for two days. It is so frusturating for me to see the solution was too easy.
Setting a particular Python path did the trick for me. In terminal:
gedit ~/.bashrc
We need to add a python path in there. This one below did the trick for me.
export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/lib/python3.6

Please note that, I previously added codes below which didn’t solve my problem. Just for warning.

#export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages #export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/bin/python3 #export PYTHONHOME=$PYTHONHOME:/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages

Platform

Ubuntu 14.04
Anaconda3:Python3.5
Apache2.4.7
mod_wsgi-4.6.4

Install step

• 1 sudo apt-get install apache2
• 2 sudo apt-get install apache2-dev
• 3 build mod_wsgi
  • ./configure
  • LD_RUN_PATH=/home/xu/anaconda3/lib make
  • sudo make install
    output is:

  Libraries have been installed in: /usr/lib/apache2/modules If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use the `-LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to the `LD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution - add LIBDIR to the `LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable during linking - use the `-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf' See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- chmod 644 /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_wsgi.so

  Finally, testing

  There is nothing in the browser, so I cat the `error.log`, it show that: ``` Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to [:] Fatal Python error: Py_Initialize: Unable to get the locale encoding ImportError: No module named 'encodings' Current thread 0x00007f1702599780 (most recent call first): ``` 

  I found a lot of relevant answers on the Internet, but I still can’t solve it.So I am asking for help.
