unable to install psutil (windows 10) #687
Comments

Do you have any firewall set up? It could be that it's blocking psutil from installing (which uses python's pip util to install it)... |
|
I think I found the issue....give me a minute to build the new installer |
|
i don't think i have a firewall. i'm not logging back on tonight to check

no worries, it's not the firewall. psutil requires vs redistributable to be on the system, so I'm packaging that with the installer and it should work after... |
|
Whenever you get the chance, I updated the installer here: https://github.com/NickvisionApps/Parabolic/releases/tag/2023.11.1 Please download and try to install it and see what happens |
|
same issue. |
|
ah ok...i'll look into it more |
|
I am also experiencing this issue |
|
@rexendevar @CarrotManMatt Could you try this installer: https://we.tl/t-mug3HcsQ31 ? Just note that it will install a beta version of the app...but it does work without issues |
|
@nlogozzo Sorry for my delay in testing this for you. Still no luck, fails to install due to inability to install psutil. Weirdly it also caused a soft restart before throwing the error (I allowed it to restart rather than cancelling, however that ended the install process. So after I had rebooted, I relaunched the installer which then encountered the error on the second try) |
|
@rexendevar @CarrotManMatt Hey, could you try the installer from this release: https://github.com/NickvisionApps/Parabolic/releases/tag/2023.12.0-beta1 psutil had a bug fix release that fixed some Windows installer issues so I hope it works now! |
|
@nlogozzo I'm sorry that I'm becoming your constant bearer of bad news, but still no luck! Those darn psutils. |
No worries...I find it crazy how no one else is reporting an issue on psutil repo about this itself. |
|
I am not well versed on these things (and will be moving to linux after KDE 6) so what is psutils anyway? |
Psutils is a python module that allows you to tap into running processes and control them and their children. Even though the app is made in C#, we actually embed python and use that to call and run yt-dlp. So the psutil module allows us to tap into yt-dlp and kill it and it's spawned ffmpeg processes when the user wants to stop a download while it's running. I didn't find an easy way to do this in C# as the built in .NET process library didn't seem to provide an easy way to do this like psutils tho...I'm going to look for a proper C# solution to remove the use psutils all together. |
|
@CarrotManMatt Luckily I was able to figure it out! Hope to have a beta 2 release out in a few hours for you to test :) |
Thought I would install Parabolic to my Windows partition as well since I do occasionally use it. It says it's unable to install
psutiland that the program would not work correctly (which i confirmed). I tried to run the exe via the command line but it did not give me any new feedback.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
