Updating bare metal install from 2020 with python below 3.8 #4990

Closed LarryJoy closed 10 months ago

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

Deployment Method

Describe the problem*

I haven't used InvenTree for three years and I tried to update/reinstall of latest version to my Ubuntu version 20 LTE operating system. I don't know the categories of Deployment Method: Docker, Bare metal, Digital Ocean, etc., so I hope I have checked the correct box. See the Relevant log output below for where I had a problem. What to do?

Steps to Reproduce

Used steps from online information.

Relevant log output

Attempting uninstall: pyyaml
    Found existing installation: PyYAML 5.3.1
ERROR: Cannot uninstall 'PyYAML'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall.
wolflu05 commented 1 year ago

Hello @LarryJoy ,

Can you please explain a bit more what commands you run to update and where you got this output, and on which version of inventree you are.

Regarding your deployment method. It's either installer or bare metal. (You should know if you used docker or some external provider like digital ocean).

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

To try to download the up to date InvenTree program I did the following:I entered 'sudo su' to set up as superuser.This puts me at "/home/larry#".I then invoke 'cd InvenTree-master/inventree', which puts me at "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree#", which is the base directory.I enter 'git pull origin master' and after download I enter 'invoke update'.At the end of the install I get:  Attempting uninstall: pytz     Found existing installation: pytz 2019.3     Uninstalling pytz-2019.3:       Successfully uninstalled pytz-2019.3   Attempting uninstall: urllib3     Found existing installation: urllib3 1.25.8     Uninstalling urllib3-1.25.8:       Successfully uninstalled urllib3-1.25.8   Attempting uninstall: six     Found existing installation: six 1.14.0     Uninstalling six-1.14.0:       Successfully uninstalled six-1.14.0   Attempting uninstall: pyyaml     Found existing installation: PyYAML 5.3.1 ERROR: Cannot uninstall 'PyYAML'.

As you can see I don't know what version of inventree I have. Like I said it has been three years since last using the program with an entry date for the parts I was working on of June 2020.--Regards, Larry

@LarryJoy from that error log there are two things which are apparent:

  1. You need to update your python version - we need python 3.9
  2. You need to install pyyaml - pip install yaml
wolflu05 commented 1 year ago

*CONTRIBUTING.md says python 3.9

SchrodingersGat commented 1 year ago

*CONTRIBUTING.md says python 3.9

Sorry, that was a typo :)

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

Okay, I got python 3.9 loaded. In fact when I ran 'python3.9 --version' the OS came back with "Python 3.9.17".I am not a programmer and need specific instructions as to what commands to use to install pyyaml - pip install yaml. I tried 'install pyyaml - pip' and the OS came back with "install: missing destination file operand after 'pyyaml - pip'". I also tried 'install yaml' and the OS came back with "install: missing destination file operand after 'yaml'". Do I need to be a superuser or what?

This is what I ran/commanded and what the OS responded with. It looks like the pyyaml is in with the python3 distribution.

wolflu05 commented 1 year ago

Can you please format your answers with markdown, it's really hard to read them. (open https://github.com/inventree/InvenTree/issues/4990 with a browser)

Looks like you are using an outdated python version (3.7) required is (3.9). If you say that you already updated it, it's most likely that when you run python it uses the old version, but if you run python3.9 it uses the new. Maybe you can fix this with something like this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/498264

wolflu05 commented 1 year ago

Do you have some data that you want to keep? Otherwise I would suggest just starting from scratch. There is now a pretty easy to use installer script. Read more here: https://docs.inventree.org/en/latest/start/installer/

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

I don't know what is meant by "markdown". I am replying directly on GitHub now. I entered 'python --version' (in my terminal) and the OS came back with "Python 2.7.18". Why is that when I updated to 3.9? So I went to the link you provided https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/498264 and entered the information as stated in that posting--it didn't work! I read through the other postings and this is what finally worked: I entered 'sudo update-alternatives --config python'. The OS came back with "There are 2 choices for the alternative python (providing /usr/bin/python". There were 3 selections 0, 1, and 2. I chose 2 which was "/usr/bin/python3.9", Priority "1", Status "manual mode". Selection 0 and 1 was Priority 9 and Status was stated as "auto mode" for 0 and "manual mode" for 1. I don't know what "auto mode" or "manual mode" means. Now when I enter 'python --version' or 'python -V' the OS comes back with Python 3.9.17. It took me a couple of hours trying the different commands discussed and it looks like the Python 3.9 problem is now fixed.

Uh oh. Yes, I have my inventory data, that I worked on for days/months. I don't know where it is on my OS or how I would back it up. I do a backup of my system almost everyday on a USB drive, so I suspect the inventory data is there somewhere, but I wouldn't know how to find it or how to transfer it in to a new InvenTree install. --Thanks for your help, Larry

matmair commented 1 year ago

@LarryJoy So is the invoke update command working now that you have python 3.9?

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

NO! The 'invoke update' command did not work. Here I go again as I had written a reply but it emptied when I tried to go somewhere else to get information. This is getting very frustrating. I will not attempt to recreate my commands and what the OS comes back with.

It looks like I will have to do a clean install of the current InvenTree program, according to your "Install" instructions. Do I have to uninstall the three year old program I have before a new install? Or, will the new install overwrite or check my current install?

matmair commented 1 year ago

I can not really answer that without knowing what invoke update returns. In theory that command should be everything you need to run to update or throw errors with what needs to change. But with the little information we have about your installation, it is hard to say. We would need at least the version information to give concrete infos.

Can you look for a file named 'api_version.py' in your install directory and provide us with what is written there as INVENTREE_API_VERSION?

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

Okay, here we go. First thing is to check what OS I have: larry@larry-MS-7693:~$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 20.04.6 LTS Release: 20.04 Codename: focal

Next is to sign on as super user: larry@larry-MS-7693:~$ sudo su [sudo] password for larry: root@larry-MS-7693:/home/larry# This automatically takes me to /home/larry as a super user.

Then I try getting to the InvenjTree program that I had been using back three years ago in June 2020. These are the steps I wrote down back then that worked: root@larry-MS-7693:/home/larry# cd InvenTree-master/inventree root@larry-MS-7693:/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree# source ./inventree-env/bin/activate (inventree-env) root@larry-MS-7693:/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree# cd InvenTree (inventree-env) root@larry-MS-7693:/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/InvenTree# python manage.py runserver 127.0.0.1:8000 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 328, in run_from_argv self.execute(*args, cmd_options) File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/core/management/commands/runserver.py", line 60, in execute super().execute(*args, *options) File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/core/management/base.py", line 369, in execute output = self.handle(args, options) File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/core/management/commands/runserver.py", line 67, in handle if not settings.DEBUG and not settings.ALLOWED_HOSTS: File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/conf/init.py", line 76, in getattr self._setup(name) File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/conf/init.py", line 63, in _setup self._wrapped = Settings(settings_module) File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env/lib/python3.7/site-packages/django/conf/init.py", line 142, in init mod = importlib.import_module(self.SETTINGS_MODULE) File "/usr/lib/python3.7/importlib/init.py", line 127, in import_module return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level) File "", line 1006, in _gcd_import File "", line 983, in _find_and_load File "", line 967, in _find_and_load_unlocked File "", line 677, in _load_unlocked File "", line 728, in exec_module File "", line 219, in _call_with_frames_removed File "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/InvenTree/InvenTree/settings.py", line 25, in from dotenv import load_dotenv ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dotenv'

I found that the install directory is "/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/InvenTree/InvenTree".

As can be seen the "api_version.py" file is there, so I do a "head" command as follows: larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree/InvenTree/InvenTree$ head api_version.py """InvenTree API version information."""

InvenTree API version

INVENTREE_API_VERSION = 125

So there it is.

@LarryJoy the "invoke" command must be run from the top-level directory, where the tasks.py file is located.

Please run ls to ensure you are in the directory which contains tasks.py

matmair commented 1 year ago

It also seems like you still have an old venv around - please destroy it and create a new one. The old one (/home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-env) still points to python 3.7 - you need at least 3.9 to run 0.11.x.

I went no further because of the error.

matmair commented 1 year ago

You are one level too deep. The venv is the folder you changed into. You have to delete /home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree/inventree-envand execute the rest of the commands from /home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree. I am really hesitant to give you just copy-paste commands as there is a good chance that your instance is not fully following the setup guide and that commands will not work for anyone else who might stumble over this issue. I can not recollect us advising the name inventree-env for the venv and not env.

I would suggest reading up on python and virtual environments if you want to continue using a bare metal instance after we get over this problem. The installer install is probably easier if you are not regularly administering python apps on linux.

I backed off one level as you indicated and did the same commands and this is what I got: larry@larry-MS-7693:~$ cd /home/larry/InvenTree-master/inventree larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ ls backportrc.json CONTRIBUTING.md docker Dockerfile InvenTree inventree_static package-lock.json README.md requirements-dev.in requirements.txt setup.cfg ci crowdin.yml docker-compose.yml docs inventree_default_db.sqlite3 LICENSE Procfile readthedocs.yml requirements-dev.txt runtime.txt tasks.py contrib deploy docker.dev.env images inventree-env package.json pycache RELEASE.md requirements.in SECURITY.md larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ sudo rm -rf venv [sudo] password for larry: larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ ls backportrc.json CONTRIBUTING.md docker Dockerfile InvenTree inventree_static package-lock.json README.md requirements-dev.in requirements.txt setup.cfg ci crowdin.yml docker-compose.yml docs inventree_default_db.sqlite3 LICENSE Procfile readthedocs.yml requirements-dev.txt runtime.txt tasks.py contrib deploy docker.dev.env images inventree-env package.json pycache RELEASE.md requirements.in SECURITY.md larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ python3 -m venv env larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ source ./env/bin/activate (env) larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ ls backportrc.json CONTRIBUTING.md docker Dockerfile images inventree-env package.json pycache RELEASE.md requirements.in SECURITY.md ci crowdin.yml docker-compose.yml docs InvenTree inventree_static package-lock.json README.md requirements-dev.in requirements.txt setup.cfg contrib deploy docker.dev.env env inventree_default_db.sqlite3 LICENSE Procfile readthedocs.yml requirements-dev.txt runtime.txt tasks.py (env) larry@larry-MS-7693:~/InvenTree-master/inventree$ pip install -U -r src/requirements.txt ERROR: Could not open requirements file: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'src/requirements.txt'

As you can see I got the same Errno 2 "No such file or directory: 'src/requirements.txt'". Two comments:

  1. I don't know where the line out lines are coming from. I am just doing a select with the cursor, RMB copy, and then in this posting doing an RMB and paste. There must be hidden commands in the text, which I don't know about.
  2. When I originally downloaded the InvenTree program in early 2020 or late 2019 I just followed the instructions that were on line. I didn't do anything on my own. As I said before, I am not a programmer or software engineer. ***What next?

I can partially answer your latest comment:

I don't know where the line out lines are coming from. I am just doing a select with the cursor, RMB copy, and then in this posting doing an RMB and paste. There must be hidden commands in the text, which I don't know about.

It's related to one of my earlier comments:

Can you please format your answers with markdown, it's really hard to read them. (open #4990 with a browser)

I don't know what is meant by "markdown".

Markdown is a formatting language. Your copied text contains some markdown commands. Like ~ which is used for crossing out text like this (~~this~~). What I meant earlier was that you should use code blocks for your copied text. (Three ` at the beginning and three at the end (with newlines). You can read more about markdown here.

wolflu05, The link you gave for markdown was in the German language. I did an internet search on "markdown" and found the information (in English). Here are my terminal commands and results using markdown:

Hopefully you can read this and can can help me go forward with whatever terminal commands I need to do in order to get my InvenTree program back on its feet.

@LarryJoy try running

A 10-second google search for error: invalid command 'bdist_wheel' would be faster for both of us but here you go:

And so the next step/command?

SchrodingersGat commented 1 year ago

You will need to set the INVENTREE_BACKUP_DIR parameter in your settings file, or environment variables:

https://docs.inventree.org/en/latest/start/config/#backup-file-storage

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

You got me there! I used "locate" and "find" to try to locate "settings" file or "environment variables". I did find "config.py" and some other "config...", but nothing of an INVENTREE_BACKUP_DIR directory or file. Where do I find what I need? And is there some hint as to where/what this backup directory/file should be named?

matmair commented 1 year ago

Please read the documentation around the configuration of InvenTree, your questions are answered there.

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

matmair, Okay on the documentation. It will take me awhile to read, study, and absorb the information and then attempt to understand the configuration I have and any defects. I only want to use the InvenTree program for what it is for, an inventory database, not have to do any programming. It would seem that these days you could use artificial intelligence (AI) to do the setup automatically, checking the directories and files to see if they are up to date and deleting anything that is not needed, besides keeping the inventory already created. --Regards, Larry Joy

This issue seems stale. Please react to show this is still important.

LarryJoy commented 1 year ago

I had composed an e-mail reply yesterday but did not get around to sending it. Here then is my comment. I have read through the info you gave me the link to but it has not helped. The info is clear as mud or as the person who said that they knew any language there was, except for the Greek language, and was asked about a particular language, the person replied with, "I don't know, it's all Greek to me."

I have used the "search" and "find" terminal commands and then used the "tree" command to see the architecture of the directories, files, sub-directories and files, but not knowing what should and should not be there it does me no good.

I need someone to hold my hand, look over my shoulder, execute what I am told, interpret the results (mostly error messages), and then what to do next.

I believe my only recourse is to do a brand new download of your up-to-date program, what you call bare metal, to a new directory. This I would do after updating my Ubuntu OS from 20.4 to 22.4. This is another battle I am going to have to contend with as the automatic update message, that I answer yes to, does nothing. This will mean a lot of redundant work to recreate the data that I have already entered. I have just over 100 items in my inventory and at this point this is just a hobby. --Regards, Larry

LarryJoy commented 10 months ago

This is just too convoluted for me. As mentioned before once I get my Ubuntu OS updated I will do a brand new download of InvenTree into a separate/new directory and recreate my database. This will take me months, maybe even years.
