install does not work (at all) on Ubuntu 14.04 #70

Closed terramars closed 6 years ago

when I run in command line mode, I get this error.

~/cnc/pycam$ scripts/pycam --export-gcode=test.ngc test.STEP Enabled 8 parallel local processes Traceback (most recent call last): File "scripts/pycam", line 725, in exit_code = execute(parser, opts, args, pycam) File "scripts/pycam", line 311, in execute tps = pycam.Gui.Settings.ToolpathSettings() AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'ToolpathSettings'

I also can't run in GUI mode but that's because I have an openGL problem. Your installation and testing documentation is really lacking, I have no idea how to fix any of these issues despite following all the instructions. When I try to install with setup.py, I just get this error

Traceback (most recent call last): File "./build/scripts-2.7/pycam", line 53, in import pycam.Exporters.GCodeExporter ImportError: No module named Exporters.GCodeExporter

How do I get this running on 14.04? GUI would be nice but I'm fine with command line. Or am I fucked and need to upgrade to 16.04?

after fixing the no module issue, i just get the gtk segfault error from mixing "import gtk" with the gobject way of importing gtk (in Gui/common.py)

~/cnc/pycam$ pycam Enabled 8 parallel local processes /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gobject/constants.py:24: Warning: g_boxed_type_register_static: assertion 'g_type_from_name (name) == 0' failed import gobject._gobject /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/init.py:40: Warning: specified class size for type 'PyGtkGenericCellRenderer' is smaller than the parent type's 'GtkCellRenderer' class size from gtk import _gtk /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0/gtk/init.py:40: Warning: g_type_get_qdata: assertion 'node != NULL' failed from gtk import _gtk Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I've tried fixing that and I just get version errors requiring 3.12 instead of 3.10...

Indeed the old commandline-based interface is not supported since v0.6 anymore. Sadly the --help switch of pycam still pretends that it is there :(

If the commandline is fine for you, then I would recommend to try the new configuration/script based workflow of pycam.

Take a look at the branch "yaml-flow" - the file "yaml_flow_working.yml" contains the current set of available features.

oh great thanks i'll check it out.

i would like to get the UI version running on my ubuntu install, OpenGL does work on my machine so that's not the only problem. any tips?

sumpfralle commented 7 years ago

If you want to use a reliably working GUI, then I would recommend pycam v0.5.1. It is a bit old, but does not lack any features. Additionally it should work well with your (slightly aged) system.

ok great i'll try that

just installed the 0.5.1 deb file on sourceforge - this is what I get :

~/cnc$ pycam Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pycam", line 39, in import pycam.Gui.Console ImportError: No module named Console

works using install from source!

This is a duplicate of #68.
