Problems when installling googlemaps library

Hi.

I'm trying to install googlemaps library in 2.7 with the following command:

pip2.7 install -U googlemaps

Everything's ok until it tries to install urlllib3, it throws me the following error:

OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied.

Why is it happening?

Thanks in advance

You need to use the "--user" flag or a virtualenv to install modules on PythonAnywhere -- there are more details on this help page.

(If you were using the "-U" as an alternative to "--user", it's the wrong abbreviation -- "-U" is a synonym of "--upgrade".)

Thank you very much :)

It worked :D

Great! Glad to help :-)
