Re: Error running contrib tests

[Erik Holstad <er...@gmail.com>]

Hey!
I have been working with the zkpython module for that last couple of weeks.
After the initial problem with


ImportError: libzookeeper_mt.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such
file or directory

I just added LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib to the .bashrc file and
everything worked fine. For pydev
I had to add it as an Environment variable, to make it work.

But when moving away from raw python to to using it in a fcgi context I was
not able to get it to work under any
circumstances.

We were running this using python 2.5, which seemed to be one of the
problems, the other one that I've found
was the build script in zookeeper_home/src/contrib/
zkpython. when running sudo ant install everyhing works fine
but when trying to import it in python 2.6 I still got the same error.

Changing the setup.py file to point to the correct libraries and running
sudo python setup.py install everything works
fine and no more errors.

Just wanted to share this with the community since I've spend quite some
time trying to ge this to work.

Regards Erik

Yeah, i like that approach better.

Will do.

Yes, that was my thinking as well - something like configure does 
(autotools) where it will tell you some details after calling it 
(although in this case the output is after install).

Sounds good!

I would suggest adding it to the readme no? Modifying /etc files with sudo
access could be dangerous and we might mess up somethings. Would it be good
to add a print statement in the setup saying that you might need to do edit
/etc/ld.so.conf and run /sbin/ldconfig in case of Fedora?
So the users would see the statement after running setup.py?

Thanks

Have been messing around to try to get it included in the setup.py script.
But not sure
if it is good to have it there since writing to /usr/ld.so.conf and
reloading the /sbin/ldconfig
requires sudo status. But on the other hand that is needed to install from
the beginning.

I could add something like this to the end of the setup file

print "Setting up dependencies"
try:
  f = open("/etc/ld.so.conf", 'r+')
  content = f.read()
  path = "/usr/local/lib"
  if content.find(path) == -1:
    f.write(path)

except Exception, e:
  pass

import subprocess
subprocess.call(['sudo', '/sbin/ldconfig'])

Perhaps the install script for zkpython could check for this and warn 
the user?

Hi Erik,
 It would be good to have this info in the README/INSTALL of python
bindings. It would be great if you can file a jira (and also upload a patch
:)) for it.

Thanks

Sorry that it took so long, but I ran into trouble when trying out trunk
instead of 3.2.1.
It has nothing to do with the zookeeper code, I think, but more with my
environment.
After switching to trunk, I got back the original error and have been
struggling with it
since.
I'm running on Fedora9.
So, to make sure that it works the line "/usr/local/lib/" needs to be in the
/etc/ld.so.conf.
If it is but it is still not working you have to run /sbin/ldconfig.

What I previous wrote about the different versions of Python, doesn't seem
to apply
any more, works fine for python2,5.

On my laptop where I run Ubuntu9.4 I don't have this problem.

Regards Erik

Re: Error running contrib tests

Yes, this was on 3.2.1.
Will give it a go and let you know in a little bit.

[Patrick Hunt <ph...@apache.org>]

What version of ZooKeeper is this? If it's 3.2.1 take a look at this:

binding fixes in 3.2.2
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&&pid=12310801&component=12312860&fixfor=12314335&resolution=1&sorter/field=priority&sorter/order=DESC

You might give the 3.2 branch (in svn) a try asap.

Feel free to enter JIRAs if you notice issues, we'll be happy to address 
them.
