OS X Installation Instructions #220

Closed danvass closed 7 years ago

danvass commented 7 years ago

I'm having issues getting this running on OS X. I used easy_install to install it which worked. I then tried to run the GUI but kept telling me to install Pillow (even after doing so successfully using pip). I tried the from PIL import Image, ImageTk and found there was an issue with Tk as got the error import _tkinter # If this fails your Python may not be configured for Tk ImportError: No module named _tkinter.

I uninstalled Python using Brew and installing ActivePython. I then modified /usr/local/bin/culebra to use /usr/local/bin/python instead of it's current config to look for python. I then installed AndroidViewClient again and tried to run it, however still get Exception: PIL or Pillow is needed for GUI mode. I tried running the commands manually in python and they now import successfully so I'm hoping someone could shed some light on why this isn't working.

Thanks

Can you please add more details about the versions of the software you are using? (OS X, python, etc.)

I certainly don't have this problem and use OS X regularly. Are you sure you are using python 2.x instead of 3?

@dtmilano I am using ActivePython 2.7.13.2713 and OS X 10.11.5. Perhaps you could give instructions on what you did to set up your environment? (ie. how you installed python etc.)
