I tried to upgrade pip in virtual environment. I have error as follows.

Exception:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/itc/intel/training_extensions/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 215, in main
    status = self.run(options, args)
  File "/home/itc/intel/training_extensions/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/commands/install.py", line 290, in run
    with self._build_session(options) as session:
  File "/home/itc/intel/training_extensions/venv/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pip/basecommand.py", line 69, in _build_session
    if options.cache_dir else None
  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/posixpath.py", line 80, in join
    a = os.fspath(a)
TypeError: expected str, bytes or os.PathLike object, not int

What could be wrong?

sometimes python does not recognise your statement therefore it gives these errors.

Try this:- Python -m pip install --upgrade pip

The problem is with options.cache_dir. It's just a speed optimization, so not essential.

Upgrade pip with python -m pip install --upgrade --no-cache-dir pip to bypass the broken code.

I had the same problem and fixed it with this command:

pip install --no-cache -U pip

First, try pip upgrade with the below commands.

Linux or macOS

$ python -m pip install --upgrade pip

For Windows:

py -m pip install --upgrade pip

or try it:

pip provides an on-by-default caching, designed to reduce the amount of time spent on duplicate downloads and builds.

pip install --no-cache -U pip

If it still shows any error then remove the virtual environment and install it again. Many times such problems arise due to system complexity.
