Greeting.
When I tried to use any pip commands it occured following error:

Output:Traceback (most recent call last):

I tried to reinstall pip by these commands but they didn’t work.

Quote:yum remove python-pip
yum install python-pip

Any help would be appreciated.

centos 7 is not python.
from their docs:

Quote:CentOS Linux is a rebuild of the freely available sources for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
