How can I successfully start the apache airflow db

Question

I have been trying to install the apache airflow on my machine using the pip installation command. I successfully installed the airflow in a virtual environment. When I tried running the "airflow standalone" or "airflow db migrate" it keeps giving me an error saying

I tried running the airflow using "airflow standalone" expecting the airflow to start u, but I'm having errors.

This is a late response but it is some problem with apache-airflow-providers-google.

If you are running airflow locally, not in Google Cloud, your best bet is to just remove this integration with pip uninstall apache-airflow-providers-google. Otherwise, update it, it works fine with the newest version with pip install --upgrade apache-airflow-providers-google.
