[mostafahussein]

I am getting this error and don't know what should i do,
I have tried to update six using pip install -U six but its up to date Requirement already up-to-date: six in /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages
what should i do in order to solve this issue ?

λ - ~ $ python --version
Python 2.7.8
λ - ~ $ docker-compose --version

What if you do pip freeze | grep six ?

I suspect the system installed six is older, the pip install -U only installs a user specific version

[mostafahussein]

the result of pip freeze | grep six:

λ - ~ $ pip freeze | grep six
six==1.9.0

and according to python package index this is the most recent version

[mostafahussein]

Is there something i have to do or this is a bug ?!

[dnephin]

How did you install compose? I don't think it's a bug in compose, but there may be a missing version restriction somewhere.

Could you try installing it in a virtualenv?

Same problem here on Fedora 21. I installed with pip for python2.7, is that correct?
/usr/bin/python defaults to python3 however, maybe that is confusing docker-compose?

[mostafahussein]

@Jonast yes exactly i have the same Linux distribution , i am using Fedora 21, but my python version is 2.7 only

[mostafahussein]

docker-compose --version just worked now , and i did nothing since i have opened this issue ! , maybe some sort of cache after installation or something!

[gbrennon]

Same error here, using Fedora 21 and Python 2.7 too

[alejandrodnm]

@gbrennon I had the same problem and solved it with the solution in #1290 just pip install -U websocket

[bukzor]

The combination of six and requests that docker-compose currently requires causes this error via sys.meta_path hackery if urllib3<1.6 happens to be installed.

Nice find @bukzor . We've updated the requests dependency to requests >= 2.6.1, < 2.7 on master, which is in the 1.3.0 rc1, hopefully that should fix it.

[bukzor]

If the purpose of the < is to exclude api-breaking changes, shouldn't <3 be
sufficient?
At the core of it, this bug stems from this unusual practice.

It should be, but it isn't - if I recall, we've had problems in the past exactly because requests made a breaking change in a minor version release.

Hello,

I also got such error when I've tried to start _bpython_ interpreter. OS: fresh installed Ubuntu 15.04.

Do you guys have any ideas how to fix it?
