cannot execute binary file python on mac local machine












0















version --python shows that I have version 2.7.10 installed on my mac, it's located in /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7 trying to execute python from terminal raised the error: cannot execute binary file



I'm trying to execute it like so hopping to successfully install awscli, that is failing while its trying to uninstall python resulting in Operation not permitted (obviously) and crashing --> aws states that if an existing version of python exist there is an option to install awscli specifically with it.

          It appears you’re trying to run the pre-installed Python interpreter on a Mac. There should be a python binary in /usr/bin — this is what you should be trying to execute. /usr/bin should be in your $PATH, so you should just be able to type…



          python


          … at the shell prompt.



          If that doesn’t work, check whether /user/bin is in your $PATH, and add it if it isn’t.
