I have pip version 19.3.1 but when installing requirements, it says I have version 9.0.3

Question

I'm trying to install requirements.txt in pycharm, but pip version indicated version 9.0.3 whereas I have 19.3.1. It will not update saying that requirement is already satisfied.

I've tried upgrading it but it says requirement already satisfied

You are using pip version 9.0.3, however version 19.3.1 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'python -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Answer 1

Your terminal has photography\venv activated

I'm guessing Pycharm is not using that virtualenv

Regardless, the version of pip shouldn't stop you from using a requirements file

Answer 2

Do you have two versions of Python installed? That could be the cause.
