error installing Ascent and its dependencies on mac OS X #529

Closed JoyboyWang closed 3 years ago

JoyboyWang commented 4 years ago

I cloned the latest develop branch and tried to install it on macOS Catalina 10.15.4 following the Quick Start. But I got the following error:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/Users/joe/Downloads/ascent/build/spack/lib/spack/spack/config.py'

It seems that the python file is needed for installation but I don't have it.

Here is the full log: python3[uberenv project settings: {'package_name': 'ascent', 'uberenv_package_name': 'uberenv-ascent', 'spack_url': 'https://github.com/alpine-DAV/spack', 'spack_branch': 'task/2019_11_update_ascent', 'spack_activate': {'py-numpy': ['+python'], 'py-pip': ['+python'], 'py-mpi4py': ['+python', '+mpi'], 'conduit': ['+python'], 'py-sphinx': ['+python', '+doc']}, 'spack_clean_packages': ['vtkm', 'vtkh', 'conduit']}] [uberenv options: {'install': True, 'prefix': 'build', 'spec': None, 'mirror': None, 'create_mirror': False, 'spack_config_dir': None, 'project_json': '/Users/joe/Downloads/ascent/scripts/uberenv/project.json', 'ignore_ssl_errors': False, 'spack_pull': False, 'spack_clean': False, 'run_tests': False, 'macos_sdk_env_setup': True}] [setting MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET to 10.15.4] [setting SDKROOT to /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.15.sdk] [spack spec: %clang] [installing to: /Users/joe/Downloads/ascent/build] [info: destination '/Users/joe/Downloads/ascent/build' already exists] [info: cloning spack develop branch from github] [exe: git clone -b task/2019_11_update_ascent https://github.com/alpine-DAV/spack] Cloning into 'spack'... remote: Enumerating objects: 2, done. remote: Counting objects: 50% (1/2) remote: Counting objects: 100% (2/2) remote: Counting objects: 100% (2/2), done.

Do you have any ideas about the problem? Thanks in advance!

We use spack to build our dependencies and this means that the git clone of that repository failed. The last error is just a symptom of the failed clone. My suggestion is just try to run the command again.

Yes, it looks like the clone failed and the spack dir doesn't exist.

We should add check to provide a more useful error message. I'll do that in the future.

Alright, I have tried several times but failed. I guess there are some problems with my network, maybe I can copy the spack folder from my colleague. Thanks anyway!

closing, since we added an error message for failed clone as part of #620.

Thanks for providing details about this case!
