Pycharm ошибка интерпретатора

I’m trying to learn Python and decided to use PyCharm. When I try to start a new project I get a dialog that says «No Python interpreter selected». It has a drop down to select a interpreter, but the drop down is empty.

Your problem probably is that you haven’t installed python. Meaning that, if you are using Windows, you have not downloaded the installer for Windows, that you can find on the official Python website.

In case you have, chances are that PyCharm cannot find your Python installation because its not in the default location, which is usually C:Python27 or C:Python33 (for me at least).

So, if you have installed Python and it still gives this error, then there can be two things that have happened:

  1. You use a virtualenv and that virtualenv has been deleted or the filepath changed. In this case, you will have to find proceed to the next part of this answer.
  2. Your python installation is not in its default place, in which case you will need to find its location, and locate the python.exe file.

Once you have located the necessary binaries, you will need to tell PyCharm were to look:

  1. Open your settings dialogue CTRL + ALT + S
  2. Then you will need to type in interpreter in the search box:

    enter image description here

  3. As you can see above, you will need to go to Project Interpreter and then go to Python Interpreter. The location has been selected for you in the above image.

  4. To the side you will see a couple of options as icons, click the big + icon, then click on local, because your interpreter is on this computer.

  5. This will open up a dialogue box. Make sure to select the python.exe file of that directory, do not give pycharm the whole directory. It just wants the interpreter.

Go to File->Settings->Project Settings->Project Interpreter->Python Interpreters

There will be a «+» sign on the right side. Navigate to your python binary, PyCharm will figure out the rest.

This situation occurred to me when I uninstalled a method and tried to reinstall it. My very same interpreter, which worked before, suddenly stopped working. And this error occurred.

I tried restarting my PC, reinstalling Pycharm, invalidating caches, nothing worked.

Then I went here to reinstall the interpreter:
https://www.python.org/downloads/

When you install it, there’s an option to fix the python.exe interpreter. Click that. My IDE went back to normal working conditions.

During the install of python make sure you have «Install for all users» selected.
Uninstall python and do a custom install and check «Install for all users».

for mac I can tell you that first you have to check your path

by executing this command

which python or which python3

check where python is installed

then you have to configure it in your pycharm.

pycharm—>preferences—>gear button—>add..

enter image description here

click on system interpreter—> then on

then you search where your python version is installed

enter image description here

once it is done then you have to configure for your project

click on edit configuration

enter image description here

then choose the python interpreter

enter image description here

Even I got the same issue and my mistake was that I didn’t download python MSI file. You will get it here: https://www.python.org/downloads/

Once you download the msi, run the setup and that will solve the problem. After that you can go to File->Settings->Project Settings->Project Interpreter->Python Interpreters

and select the python.exe file. (This file will be available at c:Python34)
Select the python.exe file. That’s it.

If you are using Ubuntu, Python has already been downloaded on your PC.
so, go to -> ctrl + alt + s -> search interpreter -> go to project interpreter than select Python 3.6 in the dropdown menu.

Edit: If there is no Python interpreter in drop-down menu, you should click the gear icon that on the right of the drop-down menu —> add —> select an interpreter.

(on PyCharm 2018.2.4 Community Edition)

In my case, there are several interpreters, but I have to manually add them.

To the right of where you see «No Interpreters», there is a gear icon. Click the gear icon -> Click «Add…», then you can add the ones you need.

In Linux, it was solved by opening PyCharm from the terminal and leaving it open. After that, I was able to choose the correct interpreter in preferences. In my case, linked to a virtual environment (venv).

You don’t have Python Interpreter installed on your machine whereas Pycharm is looking for a Python interpreter, just go to https://www.python.org/downloads/
and download python and then create a new project, you’ll be all set!

I had the same problem and stumbled onto this solution.
I ran PyCharm (as administrator, though not sure if necessary).
After PyCharm has completely loaded (green tick mark top right), see bottom right. Click on it.
An interface will open. In my case the path was already there. I just clicked OK and all was fine.
closed PyCharm and ran it again normally. Still all fine.

I’m new to programming and just started a course on Python. I want to use PyCharm, so I downloaded and intalled it (v. 4.5, community edition). I had previously installed Python 3.5 64-bit from python.org (I’m using Windows 10).

To start using PyCharm, I need a project interpreter, which I can select in the settings. As far as I’m concerned, the interpreter is «py.exe», but when I select it, I get this error message: «The selected file is not a valid home for Python SDK». I also tried to use every file whose name contained «python» or «py», and failed.

On every website and video I see, they select a file called «python.exe», but they’re using Python 3.4 or a previous version. I checked that PyCharm supports 3.5 («Initial support for Python 3.5»).

Is there anything I’m doing wrong? What should I do to be able to use PyCharm?

All replies are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

file > new project settings > project Interpreter > click in the drop down and select ‘show all’ > click the ‘+’ button >

Now, in the Virtualenv Environment tab under the New environment radio button, check the path in the ‘Base interpreter:’ field. For me, mine was set to an invalid path. Once I had corrected the path to point to python.exe I recreated my new project and PyCharm built the virtualenv.

For me there was a bit more too…. When creating the new project I expanded the drop down and had to verify the directory where the venv directory was being created. Once I had corrected the path here I had to click around a bit to get it to let me create the project.

I’m going to chaulk this up to a bug. I’m using Community edition.

When creating a project in PyCharm, if the interpret is not already selected, in the drop down menu under the projects «Location:», you can click the gear-looking icon to the right of the interpreter option, and click «Add Local»; then select the file location of the python.exe file that you have installed. It will probably be C:Python35Python.exe

I faced a Similar issue and was not able to find Python interpreter anywhere on the system.

The problem with it was that python was installed directly with default settings and there was no exe found in

C:Python35 

and to solve this i tried uninstalling and reinstalling with custom settings and selecting allow for all users as well which did the trick and path was set correctly to

C:Python35python.exe.

After whichPycharm was able to detect the interpreter on this path.

PyCharm project interpreter problem Resolved
I installed anaconda python distribution (Anaconda3-5.0.1-Windows-x86_64.exe) from the anaconda website. https://anaconda.org/anaconda/python
What it actually did was it re-installed my Python3.6.3 (pertinent to mention I have windows10, with pyCharm community & python 3.5 already but with the interpreter problem and while installing anaconda I chose the following settings and disabled my antivirus before my anaconda installation):

  1. selecting allow for all users
  2. installation path was set correctly and (stored safely for future)
  3. restart my Computer after installation.(not essential-but I did)
  4. opened Anaconda & Jet brian pycharm
  5. selected new project in PyCharm screen shot of my New project default Python interpreter location = C:UsersSkboyPycharmProjectsdani Interpreter = C:UsersSkboyAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython36-32python.exe

Wow! my pyCharm started working for me,

Resolution : Python6.3 re-installation with proper custom setting

make a python test test1.py program file to print «hello python test world»

Run

now my Python Interpreter(automatically -by default select) Python 3.6.3
edit configuration & check for interpreter

(C:Usersuser1AppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython36-32python.exe)

Run
success test Run
worth to mention Anaconda Jupyter is a web based can also be used in case novice user are still having problems

I have had the exact same problem and was unable to find the solution until just now. Hopefully this works for anyone that was struggling with it.

I went to the location of the Python 3.5 (32-Bit) in my C: Drive which it turns out is just a shortcut to the actual Python application, right click on it and select Open file location which should direct you to the application version of python — simply called ‘python’. This is the .exe file that PyCharm was looking for to use as the interpreter.

Now go to the configure interpreter menu in Pycharm and type in the file location of the actual python application. To get to mine I had to go to AppData/Local/Programs/Python/Python35-32. Click on the python.exe file and it should work.

This is my first post here so if its formatted incorrectly or doesn’t use the conventional terms — sorry. Let me know if the solution worked for anyone else with the problem or if I fluked it.

If you kept the default settings while installing python, Your project interpreter for PyCharm will be:

C:UsersyourUserNameAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython36python.exe

Chose the above location as your project interpreter inside PyCharm.

Depending on which python version you have, it could be either Python36python.exe or Python35python.exe.

For me the following solution it worked:

My configuration:
Pycharm Community edition 2019.1.1
Anaconda distribution with python 3.7. Interpreter in standard location.

Problem:
Pycharm was not able to find python interpreter after reinstallation of anaconda distribution.

Solution:
— Make sure you run pycharm as admin (right click and run as admin). This was actually the critical step.
— Create new project (or open an existing one)
— Depending on the choice choose interpter or go to file > settings > project interpreter > choose small gear on rights side > add > on base interpreter choose the 3 dots > paste the location of the interpreter in the anaconda distribution.

Hope it helped someone. For me the blocking point was that for some reason pycharm was not launching with admin rights.

In any stage, while doing python programming in Pycharm, we can encounter this error — “No python interpreter configured for this project.”

This error usually occurs when you are programming in Python and particularly using PyCharm IDE. To solve this error first you have to know what is Python and PyCharm.

Python is an interpreter that can be used to execute the python code

PyCharm is an integrated development environment used in computer programming, especially for the Python programming language(though other languages are also supported) that can display the output of your python programs in the console with the help of the installed python interpreter. PyCharm provides some best features to its users and developers in the following aspects.

  • Code completion and inspection
  • Advanced debugging
  • Support for web programming and frameworks such as Django and Flask.

Now let’s come back to the solution.

Step 1: In the PyCharm window you can see the option of “Configure Python Interpreter” in the upper right corner.

Step 2: Click on this «Configure python interpreter» option. A settings window will appear in which the project interpreter will open.

You can also open a Project interpreter from the File option.

Go to File -> Settings -> Project -> Project Interpreter.

Step 3: In the “Project Interpreter” menu, you will get an option of selecting the project interpreter. I have a Python 3.6 project interpreter option because I am working with Python 3.6. Sometimes, there will be no option for a project interpreter. The reason can be either you have not installed python or your PyCharm is unable to locate a valid Python interpreter.

Step 4: Sometmies, you will not see a python interpretor in the dropdown, which means we need to guide pyhcharm on where the python interpreter is installed. To solve for this problem you can simply click on the “gear icon”.

Step 5: Click on “Add”.

Step 6: After this click on the “Existing Environment”.

Step 7: Then click on the “triple-dot” icon to locate python on your computer.

Note: You can follow the above steps only if you have installed python on your computer.

Step 8: If you don’t have Python then download and install it.

Now how to download and install python?

  • Go to “Google Chrome”.
  • Write “python install”.

You will find the home page of python.org. Here click on “Download Python 3.6.5” to download python.

Download the python interpreter and install it.

Step 9: 90% of the times, a python interpreter can be located automatically as was in my case. If you are able to find the python interpreter option in the dropdown, select and click on it.

Step 10: Click on the “Apply” button.

Step 11: Click “Ok”.

Now you can see that error is gone and you can happily work with your pycharm.

Step 12: After this, run any of your programs and the corresponding output will show up in the console.

I hope this article was helpful and you were able solve your error. Happy Coding!

You can also watch the following video if any of the above-mentioned steps are unclear. I am 100% sure that you will be able to solve error after following the instructions given in this article.

No python interpreter configured for the project is a common error message you may encounter in PyCharm. PyCharm is a very useful editor having nice features like debugging, testing, refactoring and code completion. However, it needs an external interpreter (Python.exe) to run Python code.

This message tells you that project configuration should be updated to use a valid Python installation. To open the related configuration, you can click on Configure Python interpreter link as shown below. Or alternatively, you can select File -> Settings from the menu and open Project -> Python Interpreter setting.

Python Interpreter setting shows that <No Interpreter> is selected for the project. To select (or create) a Python.exe interpreter click on Gear icon and select Show All… option.

In the Python Interpreters window that opens, the list is empty. To add a new Python Interpreter click on Plus (+) icon.

In Add Python Interpreter window, you can create a new virtual Python environment. My project is under C:abcstudyguidepython directory, so I have created a folder venv under this directory to create a new virtual environment for my project.

You must then choose a Base interpreter. Base interpreter is the python.exe file installed on your system. When you create a virtual environment, it will be based on Python version specified here. If you need a specific version of Python (like 3.8, 3.7), you need show path of this Python version in Base interpreter filed.

If you don’t have Python installed on your system yet, you can download it from https://www.python.org/downloads/. Note that I installed Python in C:PythonPython39 directory on my computer. However, default installation path is C:Users{YourUserName}AppDataLocalProgramsPython.

Virtual Environments in Python
Instead of creating a new virtual environment, you can also use the System Interpreter, but this method is not recommended.

You can work on many different Python projects. Virtual environments are useful for creating an isolated environment for each Python project. Consider you are working on two different projects (ProjectA and ProjectB). Both projects are using the same library (LibraryX) but they require different versions of LibraryX. ProjectA needs version 1.0 of LibraryX, ProjectB needs version 2.0.

To avoid version conflicts between third party libraries, each project should create and use its own virtual environment instead of using System Interpreter (C:PythonPython39python.exe).

When you create a new Python virtual environment and select it as Python Interpreter in your project settings, No python interpreter configured for the project message will be gone.

довольно неприятно, каждый раз, когда я загружаю существующий проект или создаю новый — он жалуется, что нет выбранного интерпретатора, и я должен предоставить путь к нему.

в моей установке python нет ничего необычного, она находится в C:/Python27 как и следовало ожидать. Он всегда работал, но последние несколько недель что-то изменилось.

Я запускаю Win7. Системная переменная PATH указывает на C:/Python27 как и должно быть.

Если я открою командная строка, команда python открывается так, как должна.

1 ответов

установка интерпретатора IDE по умолчанию исправила проблему, как упоминал Вадим. Найдены инструкции о том, как это сделать здесь.

эта конфигурация задает интерпретатор по умолчанию для новых проектов, обратите внимание на меню настроек по умолчанию, это не то же самое, что Файл / Настройки который задает параметры для текущего проекта.

Не совсем уверен, почему по умолчанию было отключено, но по крайней мере теперь я могу установить его снова. Проект настройка по умолчанию также была забыта, что любопытно, но проблема на другой день.

Спасибо, что помогли решить проблему за 14 минут, что заняло бы полдня траления через интернет или ожидания поддержки запросов.

Как выбрать интерпретатор python в PyCharm?

Доброго времени. Не понимаю, почему PyCharm не видит другие версии питона, хотя они установлены и именно из настроек самого PyCharm видны, а при создании конфигурации для проекта их уже нет.

All of a sudden Pycharm doesn’t run anymore (select valid interpreter)
  • 0 Vote(s) — 0 Average

I’ve done a whole bunch of coding in Pycharm. Now all of a sudden it won’t run any of my Python files anymore. It pulled up this menu:

[Image: Pycharmproblem.png]

As you can see, it’s demanding that I select a valid Python interpreter. However, when I try to choose one from the drop-down list, the only thing available is «Project Default (none).»

What gives? This thing was working before. My coding files still run in Geany.

OS = Kubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS. I haven’t made any significant changes to the OS. I did install the trial version of a help authoring tool named HelpBlocks. I also needed to reinstall the Kubuntu software install library, Discover. That shouldn’t have affected Python’s availability in PyCharm.

Edit: Now that I think about it, I did allow Pycharm to update itself.

Second edit: I seem to have found the interpreter in the configuration and now it works. I guess the update must have deselected it.
