So it looks like its uninstalling the Django you already have installed in
the global packages, in order to install the version specified in the
requirements file, but is hitting a permissions error in doing so because
you are not logged in as root (or elevating with sudo). I presume your
virtualenv was set up using global site packages if its picking that up. So
you have 2 options.
1) Elevate your permissions to delete the existing django in the site root
with the following command (im not sure if you need to deactivate your
virtualenv or not to do that since I never install anything globally):
*sudo pip uninstall django*
Enter your password when prompted
Then with your virtualenv activated try the previous command again:
*pip install -r requirements*
2) delete your virtualenv, and create a new one, specifying no site
packages so you have an isolated virtualenv rather than the one you have
now:
*rmvirtualenv env*
Then the following to create the new one, activate it and then install your
requirements:
*mkvirtualenv --no-site-packages env*
*source activate* (from the bin folder as usual)
*pip install -r requirements*
Thanks
