Error installing uwsgi in virtualenv
You need to install Python3.5 development files, so run this command:
apt-get install python3.5-dev
The above command will install Python 3 headers to build uWSGI from source.
apt-get install build-essential python3-dev
From the uWSGI documentation:
uWSGI is a (big) C application, so you need a C compiler (like gcc or clang) and the Python development headers. On a Debian-based distro an
apt-get install build-essential python-devwill be enough.
For Python3, just change that to python3-dev.
$ python3 --version
Python 3.5.2
$ pip3 freeze
uWSGI==2.0.15
For anyone with python 3.6 facing the same problem here is the step to solve it :
Get python 3.6 dev tools from this ppa:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa
Then update your package list with :
sudo apt-get update
and then install your dev tools with 3.6 version
apt-get install build-essential python3.6-dev
Activate your virtual environment with and then install uwsgi:
pip install uwsgi
