SAM is installed but command cannot be found #2320

andreaweb · 2020-10-22T14:14:42Z

Description

I've tried installing aws-sam-cli as recommended in the official documentation but it did not work. I've also tried several other methods including npm and pip, but none of them have made the sam command available for me.

Steps to reproduce

I've ran the commands:

brew tap aws/tap
brew install aws-sam-cl

They finish successfully, but trying to run sam --version afterwards displays:

Observed result

Command 'sam' not found, but there are 18 similar ones.

Expected result

Should display sam's version instead.

Additional environment details (Ex: Windows, Mac, Amazon Linux etc)

OS: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS
sam --version: when I try reinstalling brew tells me it's the latest version... but sam --version still does not work.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

(Edit: added reproduced output)

I managed to reproduce the same Observed result, will investigate

==> Caveats
Python has been installed as
  /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/bin/python3

Unversioned symlinks `python`, `python-config`, `pip` etc. pointing to
`python3`, `python3-config`, `pip3` etc., respectively, have been installed into
  /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/libexec/bin

You can install Python packages with
  /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/bin/pip3 install <package>
They will install into the site-package directory
  /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/lib/python3.8/site-packages

See: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-and-Python

python@3.8 is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew,
because this is an alternate version of another formula.

If you need to have python@3.8 first in your PATH run:
  echo 'export PATH="/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.profile

For compilers to find python@3.8 you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/python@3.8/include"

Running brew install aws-sam-cli twice "fixes" the issue as a work-around.
This is the same issue as here and here

hawflau · 2020-11-10T00:06:52Z

Further investigation is needed. Meanwhile, a workaround is to run brew install aws-sam-cli twice

ppottorff · 2020-11-14T19:44:48Z

You need to symlink it: brew link aws-sam-cli

aalaap · 2020-11-18T13:39:35Z

I had 1.0.0 installed and working fine for months, but after upgrading to the latest (1.10.0) (brew upgrade aws-sam-cli), I got this command not found error. As @hawflau mentioned, running brew install aws-sam-cli after this fixed it for me.

ronald8192 · 2020-12-07T09:49:56Z

Install, uninstall, then install again works for me (Ubuntu 20):

brew install aws-sam-cli
brew uninstall aws-sam-cli
brew install aws-sam-cli

Issue persist with Homebrew 2.7.1 and brew install twice fixes the issue. During first install getting following logs.

==> Installing aws/tap/aws-sam-cli
==> Pouring aws-sam-cli-1.15.0.x86_64_linux.bottle.tar.gz

However, the path /home/ec2-user/.linuxbrew/Cellar/aws-sam-cli/1.15.0 did not exist. The actual path getting created was /home/ec2-user/.linuxbrew/Cellar/aws-sam-cli/1.15.0.reinstall

After second run of brew install, /home/ec2-user/.linuxbrew/Cellar/aws-sam-cli/1.15.0 gets created and everything works as expected.

Verified this issue is gone with following environments:
Homebrew: 3.2.10
SAM CLI: 1.29.0

i had the same problem with windows 11, i fixed it by below

Try uninstalling and reinstalling the SAM CLI. You can do this by running the following commands:

pip uninstall aws-sam-cli
pip install aws-sam-cli

Check the version of Python you're using. The SAM CLI requires Python 3.6 or later. You can check your Python version by running the command python --version. If you're using an earlier version of Python, you'll need to upgrade to a later version.
