I had this same issue. I don't know why, but there was a "venv" directory that I guess was causing the issue, because once I deleted it the script started working. I got this idea from this comment: https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/issues/3498#issuecomment-1292682764

I forgot to post that this is working for me now. I was trying to follow too many different readmes.

I got no bin sub-folder in venv

[jbarriosmuriel]

apt install python3.10-venv work for me!

Install the correct version of python3-venv package

apt install python3.10-venv work for me!

Install the correct version of python3-venv package

pretty sure that was a part of what I did eventually, but also had to install some visual C++ redistributable thingy

Appreciate! Problem solved.

For numbnuts like myself who wonder where to look for that venv directory after a failed installation:

cd /home/$(whoami)/stable-diffusion-webui/

[Jeffwan]

If anyone encounter the problem in the first try, resolve the issue and delete the /home/$(whoami)/stable-diffusion-webui/ and give it another try, then it will work.

cd into the clone dir and running virtualenv venv fixed my issue.

[h93910]

cd into the clone dir and running

apt install python3.10-venv
python3.10 -m venv venv

it is work for me

[ClashSAN]

this is an old issue which is fixed and no longer seems relevant, if this issue is related to future issues, please refer to this previous one.

removing the venv folder and trying again solved it for me, thanks!
