setup_linux.sh always exits before creating environment

[Veverest]

I have installed conda and verified installation.
Whenever I run the setup_linux.sh file in the scripts folder, it always shows me the same error.
" Please install anaconda before continuing. You can download it at https://www.continuum.io/downloads. Please use the Python 2.7 installer. "
I am not really sure what the problem is here so I don't know where to post this.
Thanks anyway.
