AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'rfind'

I'm trying to follow the steps here: https://github.com/alexvanboxel/airflow-gcp-examples

I cloned the master branch from https://github.com/apache/incubator-airflow.git

Then i tried to run:

python setup.py install

But got the below error:

Not sure what is going on here - this is a separate fresh machine on GCP but i'm getting the same error here as i was following along to the luigi examples.

I've attached the full stdout and stderr in a text file.

Could you try to first do pip install python-daemon ? I think you need todo this as sudo (not sure)

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-daemon/

Thanks, that seems to have worked.

I also needed to do:

sudo apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev

Going to start playing with the examples now - cheers.

Great. I need to add some examples and an article about DataProc. Here is a medium article associated with the examples: https://medium.com/google-cloud/airflow-for-google-cloud-part-1-d7da9a048aa4#.5nyo4q89g
