Virtualenv does not detect pip3

I am having problems running pip3 from virtualenv. If I run 'pip3 install django' on my active virtualenv, it tries to install it on my virtualenv, but it doesn't work because you need privileges. The problem is that when I use 'sudo pip3 install django' django is installed globally. How can I avoid this?

Decision

I decided to reinstall virtualenv. Thanks to Klaus D.

ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION

If all else fails, you can still use pip explicitly:



myvirtualenv/bin/pip3 install django==1.7.1

and when you create your virtualenv do it without sudo like:

virtualenv myvirtualenv --no-site-packages

Thanks to cesarkawakami from #python freenode irc.
