Hi! Thanks for using Rally 🙂 I personally recommend using a virtual environment to install rally so that the dependencies it comes with don't conflict with anything else you may have: [Installation — Rally 2.2.0 documentation](https://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/stable/install.html#virtualenv-install) Also, note that the `configure` sub-command [has been removed](https://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/stable/migrate.html#configure-subcommand-is-dropped) in Rally 2.0.3, and you should be composing rally.ini per the documentation [here](https://esrally.readthedocs.io/en/stable/configuration.html) if you are using a recent version. Hope that helps, Rick B ---
