Cannot install saspy: Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored #134

Closed MySciencePlayground closed 6 years ago

MySciencePlayground commented 6 years ago

My environment: Python:3.6 Pip: 9.0.3 SAS Enterprise Guide: 7.1 (32-bit)

I tried to install SASPy using 'pip install saspy' and 'pip install https://github.com/sassoftware/saspy/releases/download/v2.2.4/saspy.tar.gz' but both way failed.

The error message: Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored

I tried to upgrade my pip but it shows up-to-date and Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored again.

I am not sure what's wrong and how to fix it. Please someone help me with this issue.

Thank you in advance,

Well that's a new one. No clue. But googling it, it seems that it could be a conflict between using python2 pip and python3 pip. depending on how you installed python3, it may be that you have to specifically use pip3 or be sure you are pointing to the pip command that is in the python3 and not accidently getting the python2 version. This issue https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/5250 seems like it may have some good ideas to try. Tom

Hi Tom,

I tried pip install --no-cache-dir saspy and it solved the issue of Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored, however, I am still not able to install saspy.

The error: Could not find a version that satisfied the requirement saspy (from version :) No matching distribution found for saspy.

From my research, I am not sure is it because my sas enterprise guide is 7.1, which does not match the requirement (sas 9.4)?

Thanks,

Well, the pip install for saspy won't know anything about SAS (right or wrong versions), so that's not the problem this time. This is still likely the next part of whatever problem is going on that --no-cach-dir didn't happen to work around. I just don't know what all is messed up with your pip/python system, so I don't know what might fix it.

I expect you'l be running saspy from windows, connecting to a workspace server (given EG), so the IOM access method? When you get this installed, you will need a few jars for the IOM client, which can be found in a SAS install directory. You may find these in your local EG install (same named jars), and they may or may not work. I've see some cases where they didn't. But, you can try them and see, and if not, copy the jars from a regular SAS install (the workspace servers count as that, so you have them there). Tom

Hi Tom,

So I called the IT team in my department and they successfully installed it. I think this is the fire wall issue ,which block my installation previously.

The warning 'Cache entry deserialization failed, entry ignored' was still there but after all the installation has completed.

Thanks,
