Airflow initdb failed in Amazon Linux

I am trying to install Airflow in EC2 (Amazon Linux) and "airflow initdb" fails with the following error:

$ AIRFLOW_HOME=/var/lib/airflow airflow initdb
[2019-09-07 20:51:32,416] {__init__.py:51} INFO - Using executor SequentialExecutor
Traceback (most recent call last):

                                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Since this is a syntax error, I suspect there is some version conflict between marshmallow_sqlalchemy and SQLAlchemy. Here are their versions:

apache-airflow==1.10.5
Flask==1.1.1
Flask-SQLAlchemy==2.4.0
marshmallow==2.20.3
marshmallow-enum==1.5.1
marshmallow-sqlalchemy==0.19.0
SQLAlchemy==1.3.8

Any idea?

looks like the marshmallow-sqlalchemy version has upgraded, that is why you are getting this error. Uninstall the current version-

pip uninstall marshmallow-sqlalchemy

and try installing the below version, and then you should be good to go.

pip install marshmallow-sqlalchemy==0.17.1

I was also facing the similar issue but now it is resolved in the same way. Hope this helps!
