[issue37378] FatalError: initfsencoding python couldn't find codec Module not found: Encodings

2019-06-23 Thread Lokesh Chandak 


New submission from Lokesh Chandak :

I encountered this issue when using pip. Whenever I try to install a package, 
it shows a Fatal error, saying that the module encodings was not found, 
followed by a reboot.
The blue screen shows this message:
KMode exception not handled.
What failed: dipsp.sys.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling python 3.7.3. I have also tried 
moving back to Python 3.5, because I am certain that this issue didn't exist 
when I was using that. However I encountered the same issues again.

I can otherwise use the interpreter, and run all my code just fine. Previously 
installed modules like pandas and numpy also work like usual. The only 
difficulty I encountered is when attempting to install new packages using pip.

After looking around, I found something about setting PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME 
environment variables, but it didn't work either.
I tried installing python in different locations, but that didn't help either.

I am now stuck because I can't install any modules, (and I lost previously 
installed modules during clean reinstall).
How do I solve this? And while a solution is found, is there a way to install 
modules without pip?

Thank Inada Naoki, I can confirm that python -m pip works as normal and I can 
resume my work.
However pip is still causing the errors, and not just pip, it was also the same 
for pip3 and pip3.7 as well as easy_install. I guess I will wait for future 
updates to solve this.
(Also, just one question: how could python -m pip work but not pip? What are 
the differences in them?
