Question #213813 on DataFinder changed:

Tobias Schlauch proposed the following answer:
If you take a closer look at the stack trace, it looks like a problem of
nose... Have you tested another nose version?

 For the moment, we can only confirm that it works on WinXP, Windows7, SLED10, and SLED11 using the library versions listed here: https://wiki.sistec.dlr.de/DataFinderOpenSource/RequiredDevPackages
Unfortunately, our development resources are currently quite limited. Thus, we have not been able to test it seriously on other platforms/libraries including Python2.7.  Thus, the documentation is quite true in this regard.

@Guy: If you have experienced any problems with Python2.7 on Debian..
Why is there not any question/mail/bug report describing this problem?

Betreff: Re: [Datafinder-team] [Question #213813]: Compilation problem in Debain

Question #213813 on DataFinder changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/datafinder/+question/213813

    Status: Open => Answered

Guy K. Kloss proposed the following answer:
Well, DataFinder is a Python implementation, that does not need to be compiled, but installed only.

We have recently made an attempt on Debian Squeeze (stable), and were
successful in running the clients. However, we have also been a bit
disappointed that the unit tests didn't run properly. But I can't tell
at the moment what it is/was, that kept them from finishing properly.

I'd love to point you to the notes from my R&D project students, but
unfortunately our uni has got a problem with the virtual machines
running the wiki ... :-( You may however try to track down the pages
describing the setup somewhere under

https://putake.aut.ac.nz/wiki/LabNotebook

Unfortunately, too much of the official documentation on the DataFinder
wiki is a bit terse, outdated, or a bit inaccurate. I'll see if I can
update a bit on that over the upcoming summer months (southern
hemisphere). But we've also been waiting on quite a bit of feedback from
the official developers ...

Also try your luck on the wiki with the official documentation:

https://wiki.sistec.dlr.de/DataFinderOpenSource

Please, keep me posted on where you're getting at with it. It'd be great
to get some of these things sorted out and describe some procedures for
an install on recent Debian versions. The Germans only seem to be
looking at SuSE, and I've got the feeling they haven't installed a
version recently (server and client, particularly server ...), or have
just not bothered updating the docs.

Hope that helps,

Guy
