I get a lot of errors on the install for CentOS 5.7 (64 bit)

Hi, the problem is the Python version in your OS. Amon works only on Python 2.6+
Can you please take a look at https://github.com/martinrusev/amon/issues/49

[mcdl]

I followed that and installed and switched to python 2.7.2; I now get this error:

Using /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pymongo-2.1.1-py2.4-linux-x86_64.egg
Finished processing dependencies for amon==0.7.0

[martinrusev]

I will write a small tutorial about this issue today. Really sorry for your troubles.

[mcdl]

Ok thanks and it's no problem I'm just keen on using it as it looks great! Please update this with a link to the tutorial thanks!

[mcdl]

Any news?

[martinrusev]

I wanted to create a one- liner, but as it seems - its more work ( bash installers are always more work ), than I originally expected. I can give you some instructions in the meantime:

1. I created a small gist for installing a more recent python version. Pasting that in the terminal will
   install python 2.7.2 in /opt/python2.7

curl https://raw.github.com/gist/1751958/dfb82f043f3040f60952b634735cd4367a61862a/gistfile1.sh | bash

This step will take some time

2/ http://amon.cx/guide/install/, but instead of

sudo python setup.py install
sudo python2.7 setup install

3/ Final step change #!/usr/bin/python in /etc/init.d/amon and /etc/initd/amond to #!/usr/bin/python2.7

[mcdl]

I installed it all and got to starting the daemon but it said it wasn't installed.

I ran sudo python2.7 setup.py install and saw that it stops at

Best match: tornado 2.2
Downloading https://github.com/downloads/facebook/tornado/tornado-2.2.tar.gz
error: Download error for https://github.com/downloads/facebook/tornado/tornado-2.2.tar.gz: unknown url type: https

[martinrusev]

Can you try the following

sudo easy_install2.7 yolk
/opt/python2.7/bin/yolk -l

And tell me the results

[mcdl]

Python - 2.7.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload)
setuptools - 0.6c11 - active
wsgiref - 0.1.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7)
yolk - 0.4.3 - active

[martinrusev]

That means, it didn't installed anything :)

That's what the list should look like after installing amon

/opt/python2.7/bin/yolk -l
FormEncode - 1.2.4 - active
Jinja2 - 2.6 - active
Python - 2.7.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload)
amon - 0.7.0 - active
pip - 1.0.2 - active
pymongo - 2.1.1 - active
setuptools - 0.6c11 - active
tornado - 2.2 - active
virtualenv - 1.7 - active
wsgiref - 0.1.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7)
yolk - 0.4.2 - active

Can you try installing only tornado and tell me what happens

sudo easy_install2.7 tornado

[mcdl]

Keep getting https error

Searching for tornado

[martinrusev]

It looks that Python can't find SSL, and without it the https addresses don't work. Can you please try:

http://stackoverflow.com/a/2598936/32091

Or if that sounds easier, you can download tornado and install it manually, all the other packages don't require secure connection

[mcdl]

I did that and tornado installed fine using

sudo easy_install2.7 tornado

But I run python2.7 setup.py install and it gets stuck on tornado again with https error.

/opt/python2.7/bin/yolk -l now outputs:

Python - 2.7.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload)
setuptools - 0.6c11 - active
tornado - 2.2 - active
wsgiref - 0.1.2 - active development (/opt/python2.7/lib/python2.7)
yolk - 0.4.3 - active

[martinrusev]

I expected that it will stop searching, when it founds that tornado is already installed and is the most recent version.
The next step is to remove the tornado line in amon/setup.py, because you already have it
