'Permission denied' error when using pip install in virtualenv

Question

Edit: FIXED!

Just had to chown the .cache directory

I\'ve tried the virtualenvwrapper docs instructions, I\'ve tried this guy\'s instructions as well as these...

Answer 1

you need to change the owner of directory of pip.

run chown -R <user>:<group> /home/aweeeezy/.cache/pip.

Answer 2

I think that if you do that pip install numpy --no-cache-dir it will work.

If you run pip --help you will find:

--no-cache-dir Disable the cache.

Hope that it can help to someone in the future.
