Startup Failure After Upgrade - requires Python module Cheetah 2.0rc7 or higher

[silkie]

Guys,

Looking through your forums your a friendly bunch so I thought I'd try my luck asking for help up here.

Running FreeBSD 7.0. Recently upgraded my ports catalog. "Recursive using portupgrade"

Now I get "Sorry, requires Python module Cheetah 2.0rc7 or higher." when I issue my normal start up command.

I've been running SABnzbd+ for years and love it so I hope you can help me fix.

I was running 0.4.6 fine for about a month so think this is a Python environment error.

Reading through previous posts I hope this information is useful

# python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb  2 2009, 19:23:09)
[GCC 4.2.1 20070719  [FreeBSD]] on freebsd7
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import Cheetah
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in
ImportError: No module named Cheetah
>>> Cheetah.Version
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "", line 1, in
NameError: name 'Cheetah' is not defined

Your Python check says it all.
Cheetah isn't installed properly or not at all.
Blame the package maintainer.

You can install it manually, it's quite portable.

# cheetah-2.0.1
wget http://mesh.dl.sourceforge.net/sourcefo ... 0.1.tar.gz
tar zxf Cheetah-2.0.1.tar.gz
cd Cheetah-2.0.1
sudo python setup.py install
cd

You do need to have GCC and Python-Dev support installed.

Thanks,

Hi Guys,

I had the same problem but rather than manually installing py27-cheetah I used #portmaster py27-cheetah which also worked and in my case is alot neater as I prefer to use portmaster to manage my ports if I have a choice.

Thanks for putting me on the right track.
