wrong path to image

[PhML]

With the following content:

.. image:: /images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF

`a link relative to content root <|filename|/images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF>`_

.. image:: images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF

.. image:: |DSC_0761.JPG|/images/DSC_0761.JPG

I have the link working well, but no image. make servdev says:

127.0.0.1 - - [26/Jul/2013 15:21:21] code 404, message File not found
127.0.0.1 - - [26/Jul/2013 15:21:21] "GET /images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF HTTP/1.1" 404 -

And in the final html file:

</footer><!-- /.post-info -->      <img alt="/images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF" src="/images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF" />
<p><a class="reference external" href="./static/images/DSC_0702_v1.TIFF">a link relative to content root</a></p>

we can see that for the image, the path is /images… while for the like it is well ./static/images…

With Pelican 3.2.2 and python 2.7.5.

Do you have RELATIVE_URLS set to True?

As an aside, the /static/ path handling was improved in #795, which is present in current master and due to be included in the next Pelican release.

[justinmayer]

Hi @PhML. Is there anything further we can do to assist you with this?

[PhML]

I tried with and without RELATIVE_URLS set to True, it changes nothing. I tried to install pelican from source, but I obtain an error:

Hmm. Not sure what's causing that error. Perhaps you might instead try the method described in our Setting Up the Development Environment instructions.

[kylef]

The command works for me, perhaps your version of git is before they supported repositories without the .git suffix. Try pip install -e http://github.com/getpelican/pelican.git#egg=pelican.

[justinmayer]

I took the liberty of adjusting the pip editable URL in the docs via 4c1b5c3.

[PhML]

I installed from the Setting Up the Development Environment instructions, it worked. But still no images on my pages. I am the only one for whom it does not work?

It tried to install on another computer via pip (both pip install pelican and pip install -e git://github.com/getpelican/pelican#egg=pelican)but I had some troubles:

Downloading/unpacking pytz (from pelican)

Cleaning up...
No distributions matching the version for pytz (from pelican)

From the log: Ignoring link https://pypi.python.org/packages/source/p/pytz/pytz-2012j.zip#md5=fc37f7acd4e32644c5a8b5ac116d2068 (from https://pypi.python.org/simple/pytz/), version 2012j is a pre-release (use --pre to allow).

[justinmayer]

Which theme are you using? Whether something "works" or not is highly dependent on the theme. If you are not using the notmyidea theme, do you get the same problem with images if you use that theme?

Your issue with pytz is not unique — that package has a non-standard version number scheme, so pip (1.4+) thinks it's an alpha or beta and skips installing it. As suggested in the error output, simply install pytz first via the following command, and then continue installing Pelican:

pip install --pre pytz
