System is configured as macOS 13.0.1 (Ventura), python 3.8.10, pyproj-3.4.0.

python is installed from python.org

>which python3.8
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/python3.8

>which proj
/usr/local/bin/proj

proj is version 9.1.1

>which pyproj
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/pyproj

when I open the python3 shell from ~/ in terminal import works as expected:

Python 3.8.10 (v3.8.10:3d8993a744, May  3 2021, 08:55:58) 
[Clang 6.0 (clang-600.0.57)] on darwin

>>> import pyproj

when I open the python3 shell from ~/Desktop/ in terminal import pyproj fails:

I am running terminal with zsh shell

contents of .zprofile

export PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin
export PATH

# Setting PATH for Python 3.8
# The original version is saved in .zprofile.pysave
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin:${PATH}"
export PATH

# Setting PATH for pyproj
PATH="/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/pyproj:${PATH}"
export PATH

When I check the $PATH:


> echo $PATH

/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin/pyproj:/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.8/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin

Everything was working yesterday morning, before I did some messing around trying to fix a virtualenv issue when opening terminal shells, I also installed crc32c package via pip.


>pip3 install crc32c

but I don't think this caused the problem. It seems more likely trying to fix the virtualenv loading issue messed up the ~/.zprofile file, but I can't see how.

I'm sure it is a problem with the resource file ~/.zprofile but I'm not really knowledgeable about shell resource files and setting environment variables.

Thanks in advance for trying to help.

I have been slowly trying to rebuild a working ~/.zprofile. The above is what I have built, but I cannot seem to change the behavior of pyproj importing when I am in the ~/: home directory and not working when I am in ~/Desktop/: directory.

I tried several variations of uninstalling and reinstalling python, pyenv, proj, pyproj, and numpy. Eventually I found a hidden folder in my Desktop folder that had been created by the python.org installer about the time that my problems started. I deleted that hidden folder and it solved my problem.

Currently, my python setup was created by the following:

installed Homebrew

installed pyenv

edited ~/.zprofile to set the Homebrew and pyenv environments correctly.

installed python 3.11.1 via pyenv

set pyenv shell 3.11.1

loaded the necessary packages:

python3 -m pip install pyproj

python3 -m pip install numpy

python3 -m pip install crc32c

import pyproj now works from my python working folder
