[Linter] Error running Flake8

See original GitHub issue

When I open a python file, it comes out an error and the Flake8 does not work.

[Linter] Error running Flake8
See console for more info

When I disabled the “linter” package and open a python file, the error had gone. But the Flake8 still did not work.

I google for a long time and still do not know what the problem is.

The Shell I am using is Zsh. I just changed my shell to Bash. the commands,such as pip, pip3, which, all did work. I used “$ which flake8” and found the path is “/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.5/bin/flake8”.

I put the dir into the Settings>Executable Path, and the linter-flake8 works.

Try this: firstly, uninstall the ‘linter-flake8’ package in atom editor ( Edit > Preference > Packages > linter-flake8 > uninstall )

then, open your terminal and type sudo pip3 install flake8

You can then install this package from with Atom or by typing: apm install linter-flake8

then, restart your atom editor, “BOOM” … the linter works perfectly. hope this helps you out.
