Locust fails to execute from Windows 10 #854

Description of issue / feature request

I'm ready to load test some WSGI servers but cannot start locust from the command line

When I try to start it simply with "locust" in the command line I get the response "failed to create process". I've observed various posts about similar problems with other Python modules that led back to a pip bug where file directories with spaces needed to be enclosed with double quotes in the locust-script.py file.

I checked this already and it was typed correctly.

Expected behavior

Should launch the Locust process and allow navigation to http://127.0.0.1:8089

Actual behavior

Returns "failed to create process" in the command line

Environment settings (for bug reports)

  • OS: Windows 10
  • Python version: 3.6.4
  • Locust version: 0.8.1

Steps to reproduce (for bug reports)

Simply try to run locust from the command prompt in W10 with "locust" as the only command.

Simply resolved this issue by creating a virtualenv and installing Locust within the virtualenv instead.
