Error running Genie after upgrade Pyats/Genie

[choywy]

Hi,

It seems that after upgrading the pyats/genie to 19.8. I hit a bunch of errors when I run the "genie" shell command..The error keep saying it can't import the name "Csr1000vPatterns". I didn't encounter any error during the pip installation.

I also did a reinstall "pip install --ignore-installed pyats genie --user" but it didn't help....Any idea what when wrong?

Traceback (most recent call last):

Hi choywy,

Although I haven't run into this particular problem there is some basic troubleshooting that I like to do when running into issues with pyats/Genie.

1. Am I in a python virtual environment?

2. Does the command "which python" show that my directory is in my virtual environment?

3. Does the command "python --version" correctly show Python v3?

4. Does the same error occur when I create a new virtual environment and run the command "pip install python[full]"

I usually get past errors by doing the 4th one. I play a lot with dependencies and often will break things by accident so tearing down the virtual environment and making a new one is super easy :)
