I'm using Ubuntu 22.04.2 on an AWS server.

virtualenvwrapper was installed the same way I have done for years.

But now when I try to create a virtualenv I get the error:

    Does /home/ubuntu/.virtualenvs/bot/bin/activate exist and is it a file?

    Do you have any other overrides or shell aliases for commands like ls or find? What other virtualenvwrapper settings do you have configured?

    I received this message in a very different environment: using Windows python from an msys2/ucrt64 shell. The VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_ENV_BIN_DIR was not set correctly because UCRT64 is not considered in the cases for the MSYSTEM variable. Everything seems to work properly now that I added that test.

    It would/could be helpful to dump all VIRTUALENVWRAPPER environment variables in cases like this.
