Failed to load FSEventsListener

[frmokoena]

I installed cactus via pip on my windows machine without any problems. I'm using Python 3.4.3.

But when i try cactus create my-awe-site I get the following error message:

Failed to load FSEventsListener Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\users\username\envs\cactusenv\lib\site-packages\cactus\listener\__init__.py", line 11, in <module> from cactus.listener.mac import FSEventsListener as Listener File "c:\users\username\envs\cactusenv\lib\site-packages\cactus\listener\mac.py", line 12, in <module> from fsevents import Observer, Stream ImportError: No module named 'fsevents'

my-awe-site folder get created, but when i run cactus serve, I get the following:

The FSEventsListener stuff is just a warning (see #194).

To your second issue, can you let me know which version of Python you're using here?

I'm using Python 3.4.3 and I installed cactus in my virtualenv using pip. I expected everything to work flawlessly after i created my site as is stated in #194.

This might be a Windows-only problem (it's not showing up in the tests).

I'll try to reproduce.

I'm not sure what am i doing wrong, but I tried to re-install cactus, and now i'm getting a totally new moster:

Here is all the steps i followed:

1. Installation

(envcactus) d:\cloud\Projects\PyProjects\projects>pip install --upgrade cactus Collecting cactus Downloading Cactus-3.3.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl (319kB) 100% |################################| 323kB 7.2kB/s Collecting colorlog (from cactus) Using cached colorlog-2.6.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting keyring (from cactus) Collecting argparse (from cactus) Using cached argparse-1.4.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting tornado>=3.2 (from cactus) Collecting Django<1.7,>=1.6 (from cactus) Using cached Django-1.6.11-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting django-markwhat<2,>=1.4 (from cactus) Collecting colorama (from cactus) Collecting six>=1.9.0 (from cactus) Using cached six-1.10.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting boto>=2.4.1 (from cactus) Using cached boto-2.38.0-py2.py3-none-any.whl Collecting markdown2 (from cactus) Installing collected packages: colorlog, keyring, argparse, tornado, Django, django-markwhat, colorama, six, boto, markdown2, cactus Successfully installed Django-1.6.11 argparse-1.4.0 boto-2.38.0 cactus-3.3.0 colorama-0.3.3 colorlog-2.6.0 django-markwhat-1.4 keyring-5.6 markdown2-2.3.0 six-1.10.0 tornado-4.2.1

2. create a new site: this just fails with the following error

(envcactus) d:\cloud\Projects\PyProjects\projects>cactus create my-new-web-app Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\python34\Lib\runpy.py", line 170, in _run_module_as_main "main", mod_spec) File "c:\python34\Lib\runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\Users\rethabile\Envs\envcactus\Scripts\cactus.exemain.py", line 9, in TypeError: main() missing 1 required positional argument: 'args'

Re that second issue: see #199, it should be fixed now.

[frmokoena]

Yeah. It seems the problem has gone away, but i still can't get the server up.

I can create a site, and build it.

But when I run cactus serve I still get the same old error. Does it perhaps have anything to do with Python version I'm using?

The error is here for your reference:

(envcactus) D:\cloud\Projects\PyProjects\projects\my-new-web-app>cactus serve Running webserver at http://127.0.0.1:8000 for D:\cloud\Projects\PyProjects\projects\my-new-web-app.build Type control-c to exit Traceback (most recent call last): File "c:\python34\Lib\runpy.py", line 170, in _run_module_as_main "main", mod_spec) File "c:\python34\Lib\runpy.py", line 85, in _run_code exec(code, run_globals) File "C:\Users\rethabile\Envs\envcactus\Scripts\cactus.exemain.py", line 9, in File "c:\users\rethabile\envs\envcactus\lib\site-packages\cactus\cli.py", line 150, in cli_entrypoint main(sys.argv[1:]) File "c:\users\rethabile\envs\envcactus\lib\site-packages\cactus\cli.py", line 146, in main ns.target(kwargs) File "c:\users\rethabile\envs\envcactus\lib\site-packages\cactus\cli.py", line 65, in serve site.serve(port=port, browser=browser) File "c:\users\rethabile\envs\envcactus\lib\site-packages\cactus\site.py", line 449, in serve self.server = WebServer(self.build_path, port=port) File "c:\users\rethabile\envs\envcactus\lib\site-packages\cactus\server.py", line 85, in init** self.path = path.decode("utf-8") AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'

As I mentioned earlier, this might have to do with the fact that you're using Windows since I'm not able to reproduce the issue elsewhere (on that Python version).

I know it's not fixed, and I haven't closed the issue.

I'll look into it when I can. I just don't have a Windows VM or computer available right this moment.

This problem happens with Linux too. It is caused by this line self.path = path.decode("utf-8") at server.py.

I don't know if decode('utf-8') is necessary in OSX, but on Linux, removing it and changing the line to self.path = path solved the problem.
