Hi, sorry for the newbie question, however I have trouble to run it. 1st. I did install phyton 2.7.5 2nd I've downloaded the zip file and extracted it (in the downloads directory) 3rd I've tried to run in terminal webui-standalone.py and I am getting following message : Failed to execute child process "/home/user/Downloads/recoll/webui-standalone.py" (No such file or directory) Any Idea what I am doing wrong? Recoll is running and successfully indexing..

-> Ubuntu 12.04 & Cinamon

Just in order to get another data point: could you please try to execute it as:

cd /home/user/Downloads/recoll
python2.7 ./webui-standalone.py
bedo02 commented 11 years ago

sure:

~/Downloads/recoll$ python2.7 ./webui-standalone.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "./webui-standalone.py", line 3, in import webui File "/home/user/Downloads/recoll/webui.py", line 6, in import recoll ImportError: No module named recoll

... now it seems some module named recoll is missing... do I have the right files? In module itself there are many dependancies, where I am not sure if they are on the pc.

Hi,

This looks like the recoll 1.19 compatibility problem. It's fixed in the medoc/recoll-webui clone (hopefully the changes will be merged back, but Koniu seems to be currently unavailable). Please try to install the code from the clone.

If you are actually running 1.18, I'm puzzled, but I'd advise to give the updated code a try anyway.

Cheers,

jf

Sorry, that's medoc92/recoll-webui (any way it's the only fork for the original repository).

One more update: the changes from medoc92/recoll-webui have been merged into koniu/recoll-webui. You should use the latest version and we'll take it from there
