    I'm having trouble with the installation steps of Superdesk. 
    I'm running Crunchbang (Waldorf) and install gets stuck at step 3
    "3. Build eggs by running the following command:
    [path_to_superdesk]/build-egg"

    I confirm I am running Python 3.2
    ~$ python3 -V
    Python 3.2.3

    And this is the error I receive
    ~$ /var/opt/ally-py/superdesk/build-eggs
    python3: can't open file '../components/build_egg.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
    python3: can't open file '../plugins/build_egg.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
    python3: can't open file 'plugins/build_egg.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
    python3: can't open file 'plugins/copy_eggs.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

    Navigating to this cloned directory I see the same files that are supposedly not there. I saw a previous thread where the user was informed to use Python 3.2 which I confirmed I am using having just downloaded it direct form python.org

    Interestingly:
    cd: /var/opt/ally-py/superdesk/components: No such file or directory

    Yet going in via my gui fie manager (thunar) I can clearly see the directory and the build_egg.py

    Never seen such behaviour before

    You have to clone Superdesk git repository inside Ally-Py git repository, so as result you will have the following directory structure:

    Ally-Py
           - components
           - plugins
           - superdesk
                 - plugins
                 - .... (others directories and files)
                 - distribution 
          - ... (others directories and files)
          - distribution

    Actually I believe I had already done that. I just repeated the process and had the same error.

    Then I tried doing the build_eggs thing from the ally-py directory first.. which proceeded 
    and then the build_eggs from the superdesk directory .. which proceeded

    below is the terminal print.. I note there is a couple of directories still unfound.. should I worry about this?

    After you clone ally-py repository, the file build_egg.py should exists on ally-py/components directory (see https://github.com/sourcefabric/Ally-Py/tree/master/components)

    So please check this.
    If the file in not there please clone again ally-py repository.
    If the file is there check the rights on this file.

    About:
    "And if I proceed to step 4 in the Superdesk install.txt I'm met with another problem"

    Just ignore the messages and start the server.
    And
    if I proceed to step 4 in the Superdesk install.txt I'm met with
    another problem - See more at:

    hi, from which dir you run this build-eggs command ? i think it's using relative paths so it might work via:

        cd /var/opt/ally-py/superdesk/ && ./build-eggs

    Oh of course. Goodness me I need to slap myself awake clearly. Thanks my man. 

    Petr and Ioan, I really appreciate your help. Finally installed with no errors.


    EDIT: and then again starting the REST ally server

    Have an awesome weekend!

    You don't need mongoDb for common LiveBlog functionality.
    Just disable the content related plugins as specified on install file (see below):

    # The prefix for the plugins to be excluded, something like: gui-action, introspection-request.
    excluded_plugins:
    - content_article
    - content_packager

    Oh ok. I'd only been working with each step by step. Didn't contemplate a step ahead would cause an issue here.

    So just to be clear when removing the "[ ]" in 
    /var/opt/ally-py/superdesk/distribution/application.properties
    I replace it with the excludes you provided so it looks precisely as you say.

    I appreciate my netbook must run slow and the first run seems to take about 10 minutes. BUT the web interface has at last shown and I am able to log in!! Yay, Wahoo etc.

    Terminal still shows a couple of errors:
    ERROR    plugins/livedesk_embed-1.0.dev-py3.2.egg/gui-resources/scripts/js/core/utils/extend.js: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0xa9 in position 1221: invalid start byte internationalization.scanner
    INFO     Published themes 'lib/livedesk-embed'                                                                __plugin__.livedesk_embed.theme_default
    ERROR    Unable to deploy GraphicsMagic on all 7.4!
        You must install it manually and set the proper path in the plugins.properties
        file for the property gm_path (e.g. /usr/bin/gm). __plugin__.binary_gm

    First time the server is started the js code is parsed in order to extract localization strings.
    When you start second time it will start in a few seconds.

    Try to upload an image on media archive and if it is not working please install gm and set the path on plugins.properties file as it is explained on error message.

    Just in case anyone comes at a later point with the same issue as I here's a link explaining the installation and path settings needed for GraphicsMagick (Note the 'K' at the end unlike the error message)


    So I hope I did that. Could only find the 'gm_path' mentioned the once at line 414:
    thumbnailProcessor.ThumbnailProcessorGM.gm_path:

    Do any of the other gm paths need fixing too?? Specifically line 20:
    gm_dir_path: workspace/tools/gm

    Anyway I changed that too for now as I had the following error and wanted to see if the gm_dir_path changed too would get rid of it. 

    File "/usr/lib/python3.2/subprocess.py", line 1371, in _execute_child
        raise child_exception_type(errno_num, err_msg)
    OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'workspace/tools/exiv2/bin/exiv2.exe'

    Maybe this issue surrounding 32 bit Linux??

    Thank you very much Ioan.

    Again in case anyone else comes in after me with same issues:
    1) the plugins.properties file needs editing again in sudo.. ( in crunchbang I had to type gksudo geany /var/opt/ally-py/superdesk/distribution/plugins.properties )
    2) for the plugins, namely gm/ffmpeg (for audio and video as well as the temp folder)/exiv2 you need to type the correct path to the executable in eg. "/usr/bin/exiv2" (without the quotes). They seem to essentially be anything with the path "workspace"
    3) you may need to install the packages from these if you can not locate them in /usr/bin (I did so via synaptic)

    The one I currently can't locate:
    # The path where ffmpeg writes temp data 
    audioDataHandler.ffmpeg_tmp_path: workspace/tools/ffmpeg/tmp

    # The path where ffmpeg writes temp data
    audioDataHandler.ffmpeg_tmp_path: workspace/tools/ffmpeg/tmp

    This is just a temporary path to save partial processed files, so there is not needed to change it.
    However the application should have the read&write rights in workspace directory.
