Hi,

 We have been installing kete on Cetos 5.1. All had been going OK until we got to the "topic: prepare the kete application" part. Specifically when we run the command rake prep_app the reponse is a whole lot of errors as below

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

rake prep_app

(in /home/kete/apps)

"this may take awhile and have a lot of output.  you can ignore warnings."

"requires sudo or root privileges.  you will be prompted for password if necessary."

"piston"

password:

sorry, user kete is not allowed to execute '/usr/local/bin/gem install -y piston' as root on commstest.slwa.wa.gov.au.

I am keen to find out if anyone else has tried an installation on Centos and if they had (or solved) this problem or if anyone can suggest what the fix is.

We had selinux turned on at one stage, but it is now deactivated.

 Many Thanks

Hi PeterT,

Great to hear that you are pioneering a new platform for Kete. If you had any steps that differed from the Debian steps for installing required software, I would encourage you to create a topic for it, or at least post comments on the Debian topic.

One of the prerequisites for the kete unix user is that it have sudo privileges (usually ALL, but you could do a little research and limit it to a specific set of commands). Can you confirm that you have given that user sudo in /etc/sudoers? I assume that is where it would be on Centos.

Cheers,
Walter

Walter,

 Thankyou for advice. It seems to have made things a little better in that I am now getting a different error message. As below

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[kete@commstest apps]$  rake prep_app
(in /home/kete/apps)
"this may take awhile and have a lot of output.  you can ignore warnings."
"requires sudo or root privileges.  you will be prompted for password if necessa
ry."
"piston"
error:  while executing gem ... (gem::remotefetcher::fetcherror)
    connection timed out - connect(2) (errno::etimedout)
        getting size of http://gems.rubyforge.org/marshal.4.8
"capistrano"
error:  while executing gem ... (gem::remotefetcher::fetcherror)
    connection timed out - connect(2) (errno::etimedout)
        getting size of http://gems.rubyforge.org/marshal.4.8
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And so on..

 It looks as though there are bad or no proxy settings. Yet I have set HTTP_PROXY in both the root user and kete user.  Wget works fine.

 Is there something else I should be looking at?

regards

 PeterT

Glad that helped.

Rubyforge can be flaky sometimes which maybe the cause of your connection time-outs. So, if I was you, I would do two things:

• try a "wget http://google.com/" or "lynx http://google.com/" to see if you can reach anything by http, if not it probably is your proxy settings
• if you can google, try a "wget http://gems.rubyforge.org/" or "lynx http://gems.rubyforge.org/" to see if you can reach gems.rubyforge.org via http, it maybe that their site is overloaded and slow to respond
• if all that works, try the command rake prep_app command one more time. If it dies with the same error, try it with rake prep_app --trace and post the results here.

Cheers,
Walter

Ah, didn't read your last post fully.  Looks like you can get out from the box via http as tested by wget (how else would you be able to install the other required software, of course).

 If trying again doesn't produce better results, do the --trace step as mentioned and we'll go from there.

Cheers,

Walter 

Walter,

I ran the rake process with trace. The result is below.

I stopped it before it finished. I hope the information is sufficient.

 I might also add that we tried a test where this server was configued to connect directly to the internet and ran the rake process ran successfully.

It would seem then that the problem is in the way gem handles the proxy settings or that the proxy server (MS proxy) is filtering out the gem requests.

regards

Peter

Sorry, I don't have experience with MS Proxy.  I guess my suggestion would be to go with the direct internet until you finish the prep_app task, which it sounds like you may have done already, and then reinstate the proxying.

Or you could see if the 2.3 Authenticating Windows Proxy Problems answer from the rubygems FAQ does the trick.  I found it in the Ruby Gems Manual.

Or the "Running gem install when you are behind a proxy." section of http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/GemRails might do the trick.  Though it sounds like you may have done some of that already.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Cheers,

Walter

I have been following the instructions carefully up to this point, and they've been excellent.  This is the first snag I've run into (but it sounds like an important one ;) )...  I can't run the rake db:bootstrap RAILS_ENV=production command (or the default development one).  I get the error:

 Access denied for user 'kete'@'localhost' (using password: YES)

I am logged in as the user "kete" and that is the same username I granted sql permissions to for each of the three databases.  I'm really not sure what to do from here... there doesn't appear to be anywhere in the rake command that would accept an option of the mysql password.  I actually set the mysql password for user kete to the same as its account password. 

 Thoughts?

 

Here's the trace, too, just in case:

Hi Marc,

Thanks for the complement on the instructions.  Now lets see if we can get things going for you.

The first thing I would do is try connecting to the database directly with the mysql client at the command line to verify that the settings in config/database.yml do indeed work.  I would literally cut and paste the settings in (could be a small typo you are looking for), something like this:

$ mysql -u <the_username_from_database.yml> -p <the_database_name_from_database.yml>

Enter Password: <the_password_from_database.yml>

If you can connect successfully that way, let us know and we dig deeper.

If not, connect to your "mysql" database as root and then do the following:

$ mysql -u root -p mysql

Enter Password: <mysql_root_user_password>

mysql> select User, Host from user; # verify that you see your user with correct host in the results

mysql> select Db, User, Host from db;  # verify that your db exists and there is a mapping to your user

If either your database or your user aren't in there, revisit the steps in this topic:

http://old.kete.net.nz/documentation/topics/show/120

If they are, but you were't able to login with the user and password combination, you probably have a typo in your password.  Update the user's password like so:

mysql> Update user set password = password('<the_correct_password>') where User = <the_correct_username> and Host = 'localhost';

Let us know how you get on!

Cheers,

Walter

I'm not sure if my post is even there... I've seen it come and go... in any case, even though the grants looked fine, I just gave ALL permissions to my kete user and it was able to bootstrap OK.

 

Thanks Walter... I had granted way more rights than necessary to get it going by the time I read your reply :)

 However, I think, looking back at it, that I see what happened - when I typed in the names of the dbs that the kete user had privileges on, the ' marks were not real ' marks.... they were ` marks.  That was probably causing the problem.  But now that kete@localhost has full permissions on everything, it's working like a charm.  On with the quality instructions I go. :)

Marc,

Great to hear you are back in the swing of things.  You should be pretty close then.  Enjoy your new Kete instance!

Cheers,

Walter

Hi nlk,

Glad you made it a bit further down the track.  Almost there, really.  Are you using any version control system (Git, Subversion, CVS) with your copy of Kete's code on top of the git clone of the Kete repository?  It looks to me like you have code in that file from a "conflict".

When version control systems encounter two versions of a file that contradict each and can't be "merged" logically, they mark the file as conflicted and add "<<<<<" and "=====" and ">>>>>" demarcating the two versions' sections that they can't resolve to the file.  That is what looks like it is going on here.

This could simply be the result of you doing a local edit and then doing a "git pull" to update your copy of Kete, since Git (our version control system) may have said the file is conflicted.

Could you email me the file in question (config/environment.rb) and I'll have a look.  Walter -a t- katipo dot co . nz.

Hi there,

I am installing the Kete on a open suse linux server. Everything so far is ok, but I get stuck with the load the default data.

I decide to use just the root account the my colleague gave me to keep it simple.

The details of the issue are:

rake db:bootstrap RAILS_ENV=test
(in /usr/webpages/kete2)
rake aborted!
no such file to load -- nokogiri

When I run with trace, the result are:

Can we do a manually mysql  data import ? I am from PHP. So my knowledge about ruby is nearly 0.

Really appreciate if anyone has any ideas about it.

Thanks for reading,

Ann

Hey Ann Le,

From the looks of it, you're using the most recent codebase (nokogiri is a Ruby Gem used in Kete 1.2).

This site only has installation articles for 1.1, so some require installation steps may be missing.

Try running the following and give it another shot.

rake manage_gems:required:install
rake manage_gems:testing:install

Regards

Kieran

Hi Ann,

Nokogiri is actually a Ruby gem that you need to install or possibly is not visible to your Unix user (root user it sounds like) because it can't be found in its PATH.

Try installing it and see if that helps:

gem install nokogiri

 

Tags: nokogiri, Troubleshooting, ruby, gems

The data loading is OK now.

Thank Kieran and Walter.

Ann

When I run this command:

rake manage_gems:required:install

It stalls at this point:

"sudo gem install hoe && sudo gem install tenderlove-frex -s http://gems.github.com && sudo gem install racc"

And I've left it for like half an hour and nothing happens.

Whereas it appears to install others fine:

$ rake --trace manage_gems:required:install
(in /home/kete/apps/thestan)
** Invoke manage_gems:required:install (first_time)
** Execute manage_gems:required:install
** Execute manage_gems:exec_action
"Requires sudo or root privileges.  You will be prompted for password if necessary."
"sudo gem install -y memcache-client"
"sudo gem install -y packet"
"sudo gem install hoe && sudo gem install tenderlove-frex -s http://gems.github.com && sudo gem install racc"

I'm doing this as the kete user, and the kete user owns the ruby directory tree. This is on Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron, and I'm trying to install Kete 1.2. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, since I'm stalled at this point. Thanks,

Roy

So sorry, in returning to this problem I discovered that the "kete" user had been created with a different shell (inexplicably, to me at least) and the .bashrc (and therefore the PATH statement) was not being read. I also had a different syntax for the PATH statement than elsewhere (like my account) where the "which gem" command returned the right path. Thanks a lot for that check, by the way, as it made it easy to see where the problem was.

However, the installation still stalls at the same point:

"sudo gem install hoe && sudo gem install tenderlove-frex -s http://gems.github.com && sudo gem install racc"

I suspect that since I was installing it improperly the first time and that I had to abort it, that there is some cleanup I need to do before attempting it again, but I don't know enough about the architecture to know where to go to clean things up. Or is it something else?

Roy

these are the steps that I'm taking:

• git clone git://github.com/kete/kete.git myapp
•  cd myapp/
• cp config/database.example config/database.yml
•  rake db:create
• cp config/backgroundrb.yml.example config/backgroundrb.yml
• rake manage_gems:required:install
• sudo gem install rmagick
• sudo gem install mini_exiftool
• rake db:bootstrap

no such file to load -- nokogiri

What I am missing here? please help me!

Tags: Installation, Kete, 1.2 nokogiri

The latest version of the nokogiri gem has the functionality that we need for Kete.  Until the latest nokogiri release, we were required to build it from source before to get the functionality we needed.

This is no longer the case, so we have updated the Kete 1.2's code base to simplify the install.  Here's what you need to do:

$ git pull # this will pull down the latest bug fixes for the 1.2 branch if you used git clone to get code
$ rake manage_gems:required:install # repeat this and hopefully all the gems are handled as they should be

Hopefully that does the trick and you can continue on with the installation steps.  Sorry for the delay responding.

hello ,

when i finished kete installation on debian lenny

this message shown

Could not find RubyGem racc (>= 0)

and i installed the gem nokogiri and racc again

but the problem not solved

 

Tags: racc, RubyGem, lenny

Hi,

Could you confirm that you followed the instructions that were specific to Debian Lenny users if the gem's didn't install correctly, please?  I.e. the bit that starts like this from above topic:

Debian Lenny users: When installing, you might encounter issues with sudo not install gems as it should. If this happens, you'll need to login as root and run the following manually.

root@host: # gem source -a http://gems.github.com

...

Also, as root you should confirm you are using the correct version of the gem command by doing this:

root@host: which gem

You should see a result that indicates are using the gem under Ruby Enterprise Edition, otherwise you may be installing your gems under the Debian default gem command which Kete doesn't use.

 

Tags: REE, gem, Ruby Enterprise Edition, ruby, RubyGem, rubygems

Re: Walters comments, please make sure you installed it via root, and not via kete user or sudo. When I tested kete installation on Debian Lenny, there were issues with sudo that caused gems not to install properly into the correct directory structure when using Ruby Enterprise Edition (which if you've followed the install guide thus far, you'll probably be using). sudo refused to respect the users path, so used the built in ruby /usr/bin/ruby instead of the REE installed one (/opt/ree/bin/ruby), thus when REE tries to use the gem from the gems directory in the current PATH, it won't find it.

Login as root on the box, run 'which ruby' to make sure it's pointing at Ruby Enterprise Edition, and give installing all the gems as root user another go.

Update: I've made a few updates to the commands Debian Lenny users need to run. Namely, frac gem is no longer needed, rexical gem replaces it, and nokogiri no longer needs to be compiled, just install the gem like normal.

hello ,

thanks for help

i follow the steps you mention

and when i run 'which ruby'  the result is

/opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20090610/bin/ruby

but the problem not resolve,

the message still

Could not find RubyGem racc (>= 0)

 

 

Which version of Kete are you running? If you're on Kete 1.2, could you please test Kete master (pre 1.3) and see if it has the same problem. If you're running on master already, please make sure it is up to date (try a 'git pull' from the clone of Kete) and check if it still occurs in the latest version.

If it continues to be a problem, I'll need some debug info. For starters, where exactly are you seeing this error occur? When running the server? when running the console? when you browse to the site? Is there a long stack track you can paste or is 'Could not find RubyGem racc (>= 0)' the only thing you can see?

Can you also please run the following to ensure your installation of Rubygems is up to date (on Lenny, run also gem commands as root, not using sudo or the kete account).

root@host: # gem update --system
root@host: # gem update

Then run the following and paste the output in a new comment.

root@host: # gem env

Then path in the GEM PATHS section in that output, list the contents by running ls on the path and putting /gems on the end of it. So mine looks like this:

- GEM PATHS:
     - /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20090610/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
     - /Users/kieran/.gem/ruby/1.8

So I would run the following:

root@host: # ls /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.6-20090610/lib/ruby/gems/1.8
........
root@host: # ls /Users/kieran/.gem/ruby/1.8
........

Paste the output in a new comment. In particular, I'm looking for racc in either of these folders. If it isn't, then gem install is either installing to the wrong place, or is failing to install.

Try and reinstall nokogiri on it's own and see if it pulls in the dependancies. If the following commands complain about something relying on it, ignore it. Paste the output of the following command:

root@host: # gem uninstall racc rexical tenderlove-frac nokogiri
root@host: # gem install nokogiri

Hopefully by now it'll be working, else I'll examine the console output you paste and advise some more steps to take.

hello ,

thanks for help ,

racc libraries work well now , but there is another error appears

uninitialized constant ImageFile::IMAGE_CONTENT_TYPES

Tags: magemagick, imagefile

Glad it's working for you now. As for the 'uninitialized constant' error, try running the following (assuming production mode, leave out the RAILS_ENV setting if not):

RAILS_ENV=production rake db:migrate
RAILS_ENV=production rake kete:upgrade

Tags: magemagick, imagefile

If Kieran's suggestion doesn't work, you could also try:

$ rake kete:tools:reset RAILS_ENV=production

You might even have to do it twice.  My guess for what has happened for you is that you application was partially installed as far as the database schema and perhaps the seed data.  By resetting, this should clear the failed stuff out of the way and get ready for configuration again.

This is a known issue and an adjustment for the installation guide is in the works. I'll put the edit together for you tomorrow. After that you should be able to resume the process.

Stay tuned,

First step:

gem update --system 1.3.7

Second step is to clear out the conflicting gems:

 

gem uninstall abstract actionmailer actionpack activemodel activerecord activeresource activesupport arel bundler daemon_controller erubis file-tail mail i18n rails railties rack rack-mount rack-test tzinfo treetop thor # uninstall all versions if it asks you

Third reinstall rails, rmagick's gem, and the kete gems

gem install rails --version 2.3.5

gem install rmagick -v 2.12.2

rake manage_gems:required:install # this has to be from the app's directory, so "cd" there if necessary

I think that should do it. Let us know if you have any more problems.

Hello Walter,
And Thank you for resolving my case here!
I found that in the first step, the update command only work whith the caracter "'" before and after of the version number of the system
Like this:
gem update --system '1.3.7'

After that every thing went fine.

For the curious ones, a smooth process goes like this.

Tasks: TOP => db:bootstrap => db:bootstrap:load => environment

This looks very similar to the problem YvesK reported, but I have been following the instructions and as far as I can tell I did all the steps that Walter recommended to him...

I'll try and drop by the IRC channel during NZ working hours.

Did you do the "gem uninstall" step? It looks to me like you probably have the incompatible i18n gem (and its friends) installed.

Because your "--dont-install-useful-gems" install of REE failed and you opted to drop the flag, some default gems were installed that are in conflict with Kete (I bet).

So do the gem uninstall step and what follows up to the point it says you should go back to stuff skipped earlier, go back to the stuff that says "skip for now" in the Debian Squeeze topic, and then continue and see how that goes.

Tags: Installation, Debian, Troubleshooting, Squeeze, gems

OK, I wiped the server clean and re-did all the steps, except this time I actually ran:

./ruby-enterprise-X.X.X/installer --dont-install-useful-gems 

And i skipped Step 3 from http://www.rubyenterpriseedition.com/download.html, which is what failed when I ran with the --dont-install-useful-gems option during the first attempt.

When I did # gem uninstall abstract actionmailer actionpack activemodel activerecord activeresource activesupport arel bundler daemon_controller erubis mail i18n rails railties rack rack-mount rack-test tzinfo treetop thor passenger it looked like none of them were installed, including i18n.

All is well until I get to "rake db:bootstrap":

Any clues?

I downgraded i18n to version 0.3.7, and that enabled me to get past "rake db:bootstrap". Yay! 

But now I'm getting pretty much the same error when I try to open the site ( http://hordakete.libriotech.no/ ) in a browser. Perhaps Apache is not seeing the right gems?

Odd that bootstrap worked and the site didn't. They both appear to be looking in the same place for gems (/opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2012.02/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/) and ANY installation of the i18n gem will likely come into conflict because the version of Rails we are running (2.3.5) has it included in its code rather than as a separate gem.

So quick suggestion is completely uninstall i18n, but there may be some other gems that are in conflict, too.

Could you paste the output of "which gem" and also "gem list" please?

P.S. - a better handling of this is in the works with Bundler support.

All works well until I get to the rake manage_gets:required:install - then I get:

rake aborted!
no such file to load -- rake/rdoctask
/home/kete/apps/history/Rakefile:8

error. Running --trace gets me:

I don't know enough about Ruby on Rails to understand what exactly is going on here. I've done some web searches and nothing much comes up. It's not incompatible i18n gems either, because that's not installed. My gem list is:

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

actionmailer (2.3.5)
actionpack (2.3.5)
activerecord (2.3.5)
activeresource (2.3.5)
activesupport (2.3.5)
fastthread (1.0.7)
json (1.7.5)
mysql (2.9.0)
rack (1.0.1)
rails (2.3.5)
rake (10.0.2)
rdoc (3.12)
rmagick (2.12.2)
rubygems-update (1.3.7)

So there might be *other* incompatibilities, but I just don't know what to look for. Any help would be appreciated. I'm re-creating a site that was installed and configured before I got here and was taken down by a dead server - so I'm trying to get people's Kete sites back up while learning the whole Kete and RoR framework at the same time. Any help is appreciated!! ;)

Try downgrading the rake gem to 0.8.7. You can do that by doing "gem uninstall rake" and then "gem install rake --version 0.8.7".

That did it!! Thank you so much!!
