CloudMonkey 5.3 not starting on Ubuntu 14.10

Hi guys, 

I am having issues starting cloudmonkey on ubuntu 14.10. I get the following error: 

$ cloudmonkey 
Import error in cloudmonkey.cloudmonkey : No module named packages 

I have tried to google for the error, but can't find the solution. 

I've installed it via pip install cloudmonkey. 

Could some one point me in the right direction please? 

Thanks 

Andrei

Hi Andrei,

Thanks for bringing this to our notice. With Ubuntu 14.04/14.10, the
default pip has some issues. To install CloudMonkey or any package
dependent on "requests" users simply need to upgrade pip to make it work:

1. Uninstall the default pip:
    sudo apt-get remove --purge python-pip

2. Download and install latest pip from
https://pip.pypa.io/en/latest/installing.html#install-pip

I faced this issue too and the above worked for me. After doing the
above, retry/reinstall cloudmonkey it should work.

I managed to get cloudmonkey running by doing:

$ sudo easy_install --upgrade requests
$ sudo easy_install --upgrade pygments

I have no idea why pip couldn't fix it.

Hi Erik,

You’re missing the point, the email I sent for today is only for Ubuntu 14.04/14.10 users.

Please find my reply in-line;

On CentOS based, install python-setuptools and pip or python-pip.

Try this:
pip install requests
pip install --upgrade cloudmonkey

This works for me on Fedora.

Nope, all I've tried is: pip install cloudmonkey

This was a fresh machine, so no upgrade. Stock CentOS 6.6.

After doing yum remove python-pip, and installing pip as per the docs Rohit
sent, and then doing: pip install --force-reinstall -U cloudmonkey, i now
get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/bin/cloudmonkey", line 5, in <module>

Rohit, 

I've tried your suggestion and that didn't work for me. Had the same error message. 

However, I can confirm that running Erik's suggestion fixed my problem.

Quick solution - remove python-pip and install pip using pip project page.

Erik, 

this is a clean install, not an upgrade. I don't remember having issues on Ubuntu 14.04. I've also tried the easy_install method shown in the docs and that produced the same error. 

not really sure what you mean by the virtualenv.
