Python3.5.5 installed but not opening in Oracle Linux 6.9 - python-3.x

I have created a VM by installing Oracle Linux6.9 in Virtualbox. It comes default with Python2.6.
I have to install python 3.5 in it. I followed the instruction from https://www.looklinux.com/how-to-install-python-3-5-on-centosrhel-67/.
Also, while configuring I made the following enables:
./configure --enable-optimizations --enable-shared --prefix=/opt/python LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath=/opt/python/lib
Reference for this : https://github.com/pyinstaller/pyinstaller/issues/2131
Now, I'm not able to open python3. I've tried python3, python3.5, python35 inside /opt/python/bin but it shows command not found. The Python console opens when I give #./python3.5
I'm not sure what is going wrong but looks like I'm missing a small step here. Can anyone please help?

Can’t make python work in conda environment (GLIBC not found)

I'm trying to set up a conda environment with python 3.6 on a remote server working on CentOS. The installation goes well, but once I try to execute python I get the following message python: /lib64/libc.so.6: version 'GLIBC_2.15' not found. I noticed that for other python version older than 3.4 this doesn't happen.
Given this, I tried installing glibc before python, but after installing python 3.6 and trying to run it, now I get Segmentation fault (core dumped).
Note that I don't have permissions to update conda and that the version the server is using is 4.4.7, so I haven't tried updating it. However, I had previously set an environment without any problem. After I tried to install a package my jupyter notebooks wouldn't work so I removed the environment.
What would be the new system and the old one.
The old system -- the remove server running CentOS, has GLIBC that is older than 2.15.
The new system -- the one on which your Python 3.6 was compiled, used GLIBC-2.15 (or newer).
You need to either find a Python 3.6 build which is targeted to your version of CentOS, or you need to compile one yourself on a system with GLIBC matching whatever is installed on your remote server.
P.S. Saying "server running CentOS" is like saying "system running Windows" (i.e. not saying much). Which version of CentOS?

Error installing Pygame / Python 3.4.1

I'm trying to install Pygame and it returns me the following error "Python version 3.4 required which was not found in the registry". However I already have the Python 3.4.1 installed on my system. Does anyone know how to solve that problem?
I've been using Windows 8.1
Thanks in advance.
Are you using a 64-bit operating system? Try using the 32-bit installer.
Tips I can provide:
Add Python to your Path file in the Advanced settings of your Environmental Variables (just search for it in the control panel)
Something may have gone wrong with the download of Python, so re-install it. Also don't download the 64-bit version, just download the 32-bit version from the main pygame website
Once that's sorted out, transfer the entire Pygame file to the site packages in the Python directory and open up the pygame file and go to this directory in command prompt. Finally, run the Pygame setup from the command prompt which should be something like:
python setup.py
But this will only work if the pygame setup file is called setup.py (it's been a while since I downloaded it), you added Python to the Path file and you're currently in the correct directory in command prompt.
To test if it worked try importing pygame and see if you got an error or not.

cannot execute binary file - CentOS

I am running a virtual CentOS environment using virtual box. I am trying to install and run enthought canopy. But after installation canopy won't run. I simply get
./canopy: line3:/home/Andrew/Canopy/bin/_python: cannot execute binary file
./canopy: line3:/home/Andrew/Canopy/bin/_python: Success
But nothing happens. a GUI should open up.
I am wondering what is causing this error.
It is basically a fresh install of operating system. Only other thing I have done is installed python 2.7. Also I am a novice at using linux-style OS. so I may be missing something very basic

can't run stipdet in open cv

I 'm trying to run some precompiled code (source code is not available) on Ubuntu, which requires openCV to be installed. I installed the latest version of openCV (from the SVN) yesterday, and installed it according to the debian install guide on the openCV website (cmake -> make -> sudo make install) and everything seemed to go fine.
I tried to run stipdet program but this gives me following error.
bash: ./stipdet: cannot execute binary file
Please can anyone help me with this error?
What does:
file $(which stipdet)
...say? I'm guessing it was built for a CPU you don't have.
You need to run chmod 755 ./stipdet to make stipdet executable.

Any tips on compiling PyQt for Centos 5.5?

I have installed a bunch of qt packages - qt, qt-devel, qt4, qt4-devel, sip but can't get latest PyQt4 to compile.
I've pointed the configure script at my qt4lib as such
python configure.py -q /usr/lib64/qt4/bin/qmake --verbose
but getting errors like
DBus v1 does not seem to be installed.
cfgtest_QtHelp.cpp:1:25: error: qhelpengine.h: No such file or directory
sip: /mnt/hgfs/rnp_repos/PyQt-x11-gpl-4.8.1/sip/QtCore/qabstractitemmodel.sip:156: syntax error
Error: Unable to create the C++ code.
EDIT: Found out that SIP v4.11.2 is required for PyQt 4.8 but still can't make without errors. At least python configure.py finishes now.
Any tips?
Grab the PyQt4 SRPM from Fedora and rebuild using mock. You may need to look a few versions back for one that will compile against the version of Qt 4 in CentOS.
I've just successfully compiled PyQt 4.8 on Centos 5.5. I went down the route of building Qt4 from source - using qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1.tar.gz from Nokia.
Had to obtain various *-devel packages before Qt's ./configure would complete - see http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/requirements-x11.html (don't worry about the version numbers being slightly lower than required).
Also I used Python 2.6 from the EPEL 5 repository (python26-devel). Just remember when building PyQt to run python26 configure.py (and not the default Python). I don't know if this will improve your mileage in building PyQt but we're porting an application from Windows which was already using 2.6 so this route was necessary for me.
Not going to post my entire .bash_history here (much trial and error!) but if you're trying this and get stuck please ask a question.
