sys.stdout is None? wut?

[sapi]

Importing pip caused an AttributeError? That is very wtf.

Where does it save the configurations? I want to change it so I can test this again because it has saved my choice.

[sapi]

They're in ~/.mptrc. Just clear the whole directory if you want to go again (and make sure that you're running a MyPyTutor.py which is outside the install directory).

[mijohen]

Doesn't mpt_installer place MyPyTutur.py inside the installation folder?

[sapi]

Yeah, both do.

That means if you want to run the new installer (aka, MyPyTutor.py, the one which installs pip), you need to make sure you're running MyPyTutor.py from outside the installed directory (or it will launch the app).

I don't think mpt_installer.py will do anything sane with what I've got on the server atm. Try the new version, maybe? Just copy MyPyTutor.py from the git repo somewhere else, then run it.

[mijohen]

I've been using the installer and it installs fine and runs the app fine. But I'm still getting the above error when I choose 'y'. And I re-installed a fresh copy of python.

[mijohen]

I just saw your instructions on how to use the new installer, ive been using mpt_installer.py which is in the main repo. So this may be why I am getting the above error but I don't have time to check as it is late.

[sapi]

Let me know what happens with the new installer. If you're still getting the error, I'll give this a closer look :)

[mijohen]

I am still getting this error with the new installer on Windows 8.1.

This also only occurs when you run the installer through IDLE.

[sapi]

Closing as falling into the category of 'IDLE being funny'. Thanks for the report, though.

[jgat]

Worth double-checking: is it straightforward for students to run the installer outside of IDLE on lab machines/windows and mac laptops/etc?

I seem to remember that the old installer would often need to be run in IDLE, because double-clicking on it in windows wasn't guaranteed to do anything.

[sapi]

Unfortunately we can't test atm: double-clicking on Windows runs Python 2, and it's impossible to change the association (because Windows).

[mijohen]

Is this association being changed on the lab computers before MyPyTutor is released so that students do not run it from within IDLE?

[sapi]

We're trying to (Peter submitted a helpdesk ticket).

If it doesn't come through in time, we can provide a .bat file which executes it using the correct interpreter.

I am going to do a video and other tutorial on "Doing stuff in the lab" maybe that will help avoid the problem On 02/03/2015 8:06 pm, "Michael Henderson" notifications@github.com wrote:
