# general
f
Hello, I am facing issue with pants installation on my 
mac M1 silicon
. I have done the following: Python3 via pyenv - 
3.11.7
pants.tomal has version ->> 
2.26
I am installing pants via 
brew install pants
when i do 
pants --version
--> getting verison as 
2
. When trying to run any command i am getting below error :
Copy code
usage: /opt/homebrew/bin/pants [-h] [-V] {bootstrap-cache-key,bootstrap-version,help} ...
/opt/homebrew/bin/pants: error: argument {bootstrap-cache-key,bootstrap-version,help}: invalid choice: 'export' (choose from 'bootstrap-cache-key', 'bootstrap-version', 'help')
Can someone please help me here what should i do?
w
In the pants.toml, you're using 
2.26
or 
2.26.0
?
f
2.26.0
w
Can you create a new empty (unrelated to any of your projects) somewhere and run 
pants --version
in there? It should ask to create a pants.toml
Copy code
⏺ scratch/testpants % pants --version

if you run that command, you get the version of scie-pants

Hmm, was hoping for something more like:
Copy code
scratch/testpants % PANTS_BOOTSTRAP_VERSION=report pants
0.12.3
Though I'm confused why, above, you have 
usage: /opt/homebrew/bin/pants
and here you have 
usage: /Users/yyadav/.local/bin/pants
f
Could be due to 1. Initially installed via brew --> opt/ 2. later tried with curl -->.local/bin

What was the difference between this most recent one, where you had the 0.12.3 appear, and the previous one, where it didn;t?
f
Reactivated the virtual env

 python --version

waiut
I don't think that is the case
w
zsh: command not found: 0.12.3
You also got this, which would happen if 0.12.3 was written down. In either case, pants comes with its own interpreter

Delete that line, re-load your zsh, and then try using pants again

You might have to delete the 
.pants.d
and yeah, maybe even wipe out the 
~/.cache/pants
and ``~/Library/Caches/nce` ` I'd also probably remove the pants from ~/.local and I'd also brew remove pants, and then re-install it
Something seems to be borked, and having SCIE stuff in your envs seems like the culprit, especially as when I ran that, I received the same result

aah.. thank you. Let me try this
w
This is what happened basically (though I can't recall which command lists everything)
Copy code
scratch/testpants % SCIE_BOOT=list pants
Error: `SCIE_BOOT=list` was found in the environment but "list" does not correspond to any scie-pants commands.

Isolates your Pants from the elements.

Please select from the following boot commands:

<default> (when SCIE_BOOT is not set in the environment)  Detects the current Pants installation and launches it.
bootstrap-tools                                           Introspection tools for the Pants bootstrap process.
update                                                    Update scie-pants.

You can select a boot command by setting the SCIE_BOOT environment variable.

1. I uninstalled pants 2. created new folder 3. reinstalled pants via brew install pants now receiving below 
SCIE=list pants
`No valid Python interpreter found. For 
pants_version = "2.26.0"
, Pants requires Python 3.7, 3.8, or 3.9 to run. Please check that a valid interpreter is installed and on your $PATH.`
same for 
pants --version
Copy code
python --version 
Python 3.11.7
w
Yeah, go generally, don't add anything like 
SCIE_
to the start/env unless you know what's going on. 
pants
alone should be enough. Pants also comes bundled with a python version that it needs.... It feels like yours is running the old bash script, but maybe brew install python 3.9 and try that? Shouldn't be required, but maybe there is a bug
f
Umm this is very weird... tries to bootstrap and now after it complains for version not available

Are you in your project folder? Or the empty one?
f
empty one
w
Is there a 
pants
file? This all looks like it's trying to build using the old script
f
How can i update the script? Or use new one ?
w
The script shouldn't be used - the scie-pants is the runner now, and what you're seeing above feels like legacy
which pants
?
f
/Users/yyadav/repos/sbp-datalake/pants
yes, it is taking a old script. from the project folder
w
Whelp, that's the problem
Probably due to 
PATH=/Users/yyadav/repos/sbp-datalake:
f
yes, it is set
w
Exactly, when you call 
pants
it's hitting that script instead of the brew install
f
Now i have removed the 
path
sourced it again ..

i see this
Yey, it works now.. How can i make it work in my project ? Shall i remove the script. Also to upgrade what should i do ?

Yes, it did worked before.
