Possible link down

[polarbearskill]

Hello,

I'm getting the following error when trying to vagrant up (output pasted at the bottom).

I believe this error is being caused because the following link isn't https://fuxi.googlecode.com/hg/layercake-python.tar.bz2 working anymore? I tried to put it manually into my web browser but got a 404 link down error.

I've traced the code back to the \deploy\cookbooks\mtsw2e\recipes\default file. Which has the following code:

packages = [

Matplotlib won't install any other way right now unless you install numpy first.

I have the same issue and I'm trying to follow it up at the moment. As far as I can tell at the moment the key issue is

InsecurePlat rmWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may ause certain SSL connections to fail. You can upgrade to a newer version of Python to solve this. For more information see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning.

which leads to https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning The version of python in the Vagrant box is pre-2.7.9 so we need to upgrade it.

[evaristoc]

@Minyall and all: Next upgrade is 3.x and it is very different (no backward compatibility...). It could be other reason rather related to urllib3, instead. I haven't tried the vragant though.

Are there any suggestions on how to resolve this issue in the meantime? I tried upgrading to Python 2.7.10 but receive a different error. I'm reading the book and would like to follow along with the examples.

A few things have changed since the author was last seen in these parts. As of today (June 18, 2016), the following needs to be done to get vagrant up to run successfully:

• Add the following to Vagrantfile after config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|:

    chef.channel = "stable"
    chef.version = "12.10.24"

• In deploy/cookbooks/python/attributes/default.rb change the line starting with default['python']['pip_script_url']... to read:

default['python']['pip_script_url'] = 'https://bootstrap.pypa.io/get-pip.py'

• Fix the error identified in this issue as outlined below.

---

Google Code is now in archive mode, so the direct link to layercake-python.tar.bz2 no longer works. To work around the issue:

• Download the fuxi source archive from https://storage.googleapis.com/google-code-archive-source/v2/code.google.com/fuxi/source-archive.zip
• Extract the file fuxi/layercake-python.tar.bz2 and place it in the top-level directory that contains your Vagrantfile.
• In deploy/cookbooks/mtsw2e/recipes/default.rb change the line "https://fuxi.googlecode.com/hg/layercake-python.tar.bz2", to:

  "/vagrant/layercake-python.tar.bz2",

I was able to successfully run vagrant up after completing the above.

Perfect, that solved the problem.

[carlosfrank]

I have done the same but I could not be connected to the localhost. Any idea?

[chimere]

Now Mixlib has issues and python thinks layercake-python.tar.bz2 is not a file. I was following@alvanson solution. Using OS X El Capitan 10.11.5 and Vagrant 1.8.2

Any further help on this topic? I am getting the same error and used the solution provided above by alvanson, to no avail

[alvanson]

If you're following my instructions above, layercake-python.tar.bz2 needs to be in the top-level directory containing Vagrantfile, _not_ in a separate fuxi directory.
