As it turns out I was not using Pyenv correctly. Once I used "pyenv global system" then I was able to update the pip packages correctly and the right setuptools was installed and TensorBoard ran as expected

the setuptools version you have is 40.8.0. tensorboard needs setuptools>=41.0.0.

So there are two solutions:

  1. update setuptools to >=41.0.0
  2. create a new environment with setuptools>=41.0.0.

MacOs may not allow you to update setuptools, due to system integrity protection Adding --user python to the command allowed this to work.

In other words

pip install --upgrade setuptools --user python
