Frozen Bash Terminals

I have been trying to setup a demo app for a client for the past 5 hours!!!!!!!

When I try to create a virtual environment using mkvirtualenv --python=/usr/bin/python3.6 env_name the bash console just says installing setup tools, pip and wheel... and it does not progress beyond that point.

I have a console running now for the last 1 hour or so. I am a frequent PA user and have brought various paying clients to host their apps here, why is this taking so long?

Is this a general issue? Can someone PLEASE help me as I am on a deadline to deliver.

We're not aware of any ongoing general problems with consoles -- did it clear up after some time?

The only non-obvious cause of effects like that I can think of is if you inadvertently typed Control-S into the console -- that would pause it until you typed Control-Q.

It had not cleared up 2 hours after posting my intiial message.

What I did was use the --no-wheel flag when making the env again. Everything works normally...for now.
