Unable to run asadm in an Anaconda3 environment

Operations Installation

Hi,

I am trying to run command asadm in an Anaconda3 environment, but there is an error. When I remove the anaconda directory and delete the export command, it works ok.

How do I configure Aerospike to run asadm without error in the Anaconda3 environment?

Error information:

Looks to be a python 2 vs python 3 issue.

Try setting your anaconda environment to use Python 2 for asadm.

The dependency on Python 2 is in the aerospike/aerospike-admin repo, though this isn’t clear when you install from the tools package.

Richard’s suggestion is probably better, but I personally use pyenv extensively, so I have both Python 2 and Python 3 installed, and switch to Python 2 when I use the various Aerospike command-line tools.
