ImportError: No module named req_install

See original GitHub issue
Issue description

Fail to execute pipenv install. No Pipfile.lock is created. I tried v2018.7.1 and v2018.6.25, both of them don’t work. But v2018.05.18 works, it’s weird.

  • pipenv v2018.6.25
  • pip 10.0.1
  • python 2.7.6
Actual result
> pipenv install --verbose

If you cannot upgrade the system Python, I would suggest installing Pipenv to a Python 3 installation instead. Pipenv has much fewer problems on Python 3.

closing for now, we don’t really support 2.7.6
