Failure to execute on debian based systems #313

Closed TaiSHiNet closed 4 years ago

Systems tested:

Package versions:

Output:


Holland 1.2.2 started with pid 6338
--- Starting dry run ---
Creating backup path /var/spool/holland/default/20200914_103628
Backup failed: Could not find dependency 'The 'python3-pymysql' distribution was not found and is required by holland.lib.mysql'
--- Ending dry run ---```

Also, python3-pymysql stopped being a dependency in the debian package (which led to finding this issue). Previous working version was `1.2.1-0`

This is expected behavior, and is mostly due to my lack on experience with Debain packaging.

This is documented in the install instructions https://hollandbackup.org/INSTALL.html

@soulen3 the packages are installed (as mentioned in the guide) yet holland is complaining they aren't. This was working on previous version.

I'm not really sure what would have caused this. There weren't any changes to the holland.lib.mysql module between 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. This doesn't sound like an issue with the deb package, as that hasn't change and holland is installed.

I'm not sure what happened yet, but a work around is to edit /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/holland.lib.mysql-1.2.2.egg-info/requires.txt

Change python3-pymysql to pymysql

Workaround works around perfectly! Thanks!

soulen3 commented 4 years ago

So it was an issue in the deb. I've corrected it, and created a new release for 1.2.2. Please let me know if you're still having problems with 1.2.2-1.

Thanks for reporting this error.

Perfect! Tested:

Everything works as expected, thanks a lot for the quick fix!
