    The cause:

    After researching your program for hours, I find out the reason of this error. This is due to the fact that env searches your PATH for Python rather than any built-in, aliased, or function in the shell. Env won’t detect python because perhaps you defined it as an alias for python3, so the error ”the path python3 (from –python=python3) does not exist” occurs.

    Solution:

    You can solve this problem by utilizing this full path:

    
$ virtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3 testenvironment
Already using interpreter /usr/bin/python3
Using base prefix '/usr'
New python executable in /home/nansari/testenvironment/bin/python3
Not overwriting existing python script /home/nansari/testenvironment/bin/python (you must use /home/nansari/testenvironment/bin/python3)
Installing setuptools, pip, wheel...done.
$ which python3
/usr/bin/python3
$ python --version
Python 2.7.14 :: Anaconda, Inc.
