superset is installed but am facing the issue when am trying to create credential for the flask app using command flask fab create-admin

I have set the environment FLASK_APP variable
set FLASK_APP=E:\Apache-Superset\superset.py

so when am creating the credentials, am getting the above error i.e ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'superset.cli'; 'superset' is not a package.

Hi @harish345,

Windows is not supported, having said that, your FLASK_APP env var is wrong, please read:

I think there might be some kind of a problem in the installation procedure. I am working on Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS and I faced the same issue. The point is Flask wants a *.py file but if you rename it then you will get another error after you type in the admin user details: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'superset.cli'; 'superset' is not a package". Having both versions of the file (with and without ".py") does not help.
I worked around this by keeping the file named "superset.py" until the CLI prompted for the username and the password. Then, before filling the user details, I renamed back the file to "superset". Hope this could be of some help
