    Hi,

    > importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: pip

    Check if python3.9-importlib-metadata is installed in your LPAR using rpm -qa | grep importlib-metadata

    If not, then do dnf install python3-importlib-metadata and pip3 should work.

    This is something suspicious. Do you have any older SSL or crypto libraries installed? Do rpm -qa | grep openssl or ssl

    Whatever the output RPM name you get, remove the RPM using rpm -e <rpm_name>.ppc

    This should get DNF running. Then do dnf update.

    Ideally this is the openssl dnf should use, as shown below. After this it should work may be? Try it.

    # ar -tuv  /usr/lib/libcrypto.a
    rw-r--r--     0/0     3081674 May 01 15:41 2024 libcrypto.so

    Can you refer to the discussion here and do the necessary to get the DNF update working? Then pip3 will work.

    Do you have /opt/freeware/bin in PATH?

    What happens after you set export PATH=/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH

    Hi,

    > dnf update pip3


    At this time, can you just do a dnf update and check after setting export PATH=/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH??

    Hi Ram,

    Actually, for Python modules in AIX, you need to give the Python 3 prefix to install.

    dnf update python3-pip should be your command.

    export PATH=/opt/freeware/bin:$PATH

    Then do dnf update python3-pip

    Then,

     dnf install python3-importlib-metadata

    I see your dnf update worked.

    So hopefully this will work.

    And then you should be able to see pip3 --version output correctly.
