PackageNotInstalledError: Package is not installed in prefix


Usually this error, "PackageNotInstalledError: Package is not installed in prefix." is because your custom environment doesn't have the conda infrastructure. Instead, it is in your base only. To update the base environment:

conda update --name base conda

To see what version you have installed:

conda list --name base conda

example output of list;

# packages in environment at /Users/me/miniconda2:## Name                    Version                   Build  Channelconda                     4.6.14                   py27_0  conda-env                 2.6.0                h36134e3_0  


to solve the problem after message "PackageNotInstalledError: Package is not installed in prefix" package name: anaconda:

    conda update --all    ...    Proceed ([y]/n)? y

regards !


Just encountered this error. The solution was to run,

conda install anaconda
