Install/compile fails of letsencrypt-auto

[lexpierce]

Updated to a (newer than 2.7.5) python27. CentOS 7.

Command "/root/.local/share/letsencrypt/bin/python2 -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='/tmp/pip-build-3jmPLD/cryptography/setup.py';exec(compile(getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__).read().replace('\r\n', '\n'), __file__, 'exec'))" install --record /tmp/pip-tgril0-record/install-record.txt --single-version-externally-managed --compile --install-headers /root/.local/share/letsencrypt/include/site/python2.7/cryptography" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-3jmPLD/cryptography

SELinux is disabled in this environment.

Can you try ./letsencrypt-auto -v and paste the full log here?

[azmifarih]

Have you solved the problem? Because I face same problem and did like this article. https://mediatemple.net/community/products/dv/204645250/noexec-and--tmp-troubleshooting#dv_40 . Please run your installation after chroot /root/chroot.

Memory restrictions.. Had to stop my mysql instance to compile.

[dud3]

Same here, stopping mysql for a while did the job.

[thunderw]

Stopping mysql worked for me, too on my 512M memory box.

[aamnah]

Same here, was looking into upgrading Python and what not when i came across this issue. Stopped MySQL and Apache, ran the command again, worked perfectly with no issues at all. This on a DO 512MB server with Ubuntu 14.04 and Python 2.7.6.

[NinoSkopac]

Killing nodejs, mongod and nginx made me able to install as well.

[alswl]

Do not stop nodejs / mysql, you need use swap.

Simple way add a swapfile:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/swapfile bs=1024 count=500000
swapon /tmp/swapfile

Use free -m test memory swap file, it use display:

free -m
              total        used        free      shared  buff/cache   available
Mem:            487         184         106          21         197         253
Swap:           488          10         477

[undermink]

yes same here... stopping mysql did the trick :)

[agwidarsito]

FYI, I found I need around 300/400 Mb of memory spare; once you have this it works

[micron]

@alswl don't forget to run mkswap /tmp/swapfile before running swapon /tmp/swapfile.
