damccorm opened a new issue, #19662:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/issues/19662

   Hi all,
   
    
   
   I tried building the python sdk harness according to [https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runners/flink/](https://beam.apache.org/documentation/runners/flink/) and it failed for me when I didn't have virtualenv installed (and succeeded after I did install it for the system python env).
   
   Specific error message:
   ```
   
   > Task :sdks:python:setupVirtualenv FAILED
   
   ```
   
   and below
   ```
   
   FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.
   
   * What went wrong:
   Execution failed for task ':sdks:python:setupVirtualenv'.
   >
   A problem occurred starting process 'command 'virtualenv''
   
   ```
   
   Not sure if this can be fixed with gradle or if it's easier to just publish the docker image so I don't need to build it myself. Alternatively the virtualenv prerequisite could also be added to the guide of course.
