Kivy not working after installation #4115

sarmamen · 2016-03-24T20:23:30Z

I was installing kivy for the first time:
python -m pip install --upgrade pip wheel setuptools

python -m pip install docutils pygments pypiwin32 kivy.deps.sdl2 kivy.deps.glew \ kivy.deps.gstreamer --extra-index-url https://kivy.org/downloads/packages/simple/

python -m pip install kivy

but after i run:

from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.button import Button

class TestApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return Button(text='Hello World')

TestApp().run()

i would get

Process finished with exit code 1

and i went to kivy IRC for help. two guys helped me out. i did:
python -m pip uninstall pillow
python -m pip install --use-wheel pillow

and after that i would run my app, but with some modification and it is working now

import os
os.environ['KIVY_IMAGE'] = 'pil,sdl2'
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.button import Button

class TestApp(App):
    def build(self):
        return Button(text='Hello World')

TestApp().run()

One more time thank to quanon and kived from the IRC channel. They are the best :)

I'm not exactly sure the point of this issue. This is very a likely a problem specific to that user's computer because it doesn't happen otherwise.

rnixx · 2016-03-25T07:13:09Z

It looks like you have a resource loading problem (whyever)

File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\kivy\core\image\__init__.py", line 198, in __init__
    self._data = self.load(filename)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\kivy\core\image\img_sdl2.py", line 42, in load
    raise Exception('SDL2: Unable to load image')

You might want to put pdb in kivy\core\image__init__.py", line 198 and have a look which filename fails to load.

akshayaurora · 2016-03-26T18:27:52Z

@matham I am ok with closing this, least this can act as reminder if this issue comes up again for someone else.

Issue seems to be cause zlib is not being detected in path, however it is included in the wheels provided with kivy. Something in the user's env is preventing these libs to be picked up.

sarmamen · 2016-04-15T15:23:24Z

do the regular instalation. but when you will writte your program, append
the first two lines to your program. For example:

you need this two lines:

import os
os.environ['KIVY_IMAGE'] = 'pil,sdl2'

#kivy program
from kivy.app import App
from kivy.uix.button import Button

class TestApp(App):
def build(self):
return Button(text='Hello World')

TestApp().run()

If you're getting this error, then you're not running the 1.9.1 release. Either you're on a pre-release dev version, or you have something wrong with your installation.

What do you suggest is the way to go from here?

kived · 2016-04-15T15:57:05Z

Version 1.9.1 calls tobytes(), not tostring(). I double-checked the wheel on PyPI and it is correct. This likely circles back to the original problem, which is that something in your environment or system is incorrect.

dessant · 2016-04-15T16:11:09Z

@kived, this was fixed after 1.9.1 in the text provider: 83a9528.

@abhigenie92, you could try updating to the dev version, the docs have instructions.
Even if pillow will work, the text doesn't look too good with it, your end goal would be to find out why does the sdl2 text provider fail to load.

Your link is for kivy stable, for the dev version follow https://kivy.org/docs/installation/installation-windows.html#nightly-wheel-installation.

@matham, the last nightly wheel on drive seems to be from march 31.

matham · 2016-04-15T17:39:12Z

It's an April fools joke?

matham · 2016-04-15T17:44:07Z

The joke is that it is uploaded, but you cannot find it (in case you didn't get it ;) ). Just search for Kivy-1.9.2.dev0_14042016_git_af57cd3-cp34_14042016_git_af57cd3-cp34m-win_amd64.

@matham, i was not able to sort the list in any way, and the end of it seemed like it is in chronological order (or not). 😋
We could link to the latest build somehow from the docs instead, while still mentioning the scary folder:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B1_HB9J8mZepOV81UHpDbmg5SWM&usp=sharing#grid

@dessant You can use simple regex "(Kivy-\d\.\d\.\d)(\.\w{4}_ddmmyyyy_git\_?\w{7}-cp34 or cp27)(-none|_\d{8}_git_\w{7}-cp34m or cp27m)(-win_amd64 or win32.whl)" at drive list view, where ddmmyyyy is the date of "yesterday" to get each group of the wheel name and pass to user the correct name directly so that a user only downloads the nightly build with a correct name. I use this in KivyInstaller

Try it here for "Kivy-1.9.2.dev0_15042016_git_af57cd3-cp34_15042016_git_af57cd3-cp34m-win_amd64.whl"

To get it done either use standalone javascript outside of the docs(which would be easier to change when wheel name changes for whatever reason), or php/jQuery, or well.. directly in python, but I presume that'd require building docs everytime nightly wheel is built if you don't use python on your server.

I am getting very same issue as OP.
First i tried the following standard - gave me this error:

Purge log fired. Analysing...

Tried adding: import os os.environ['KIVY_IMAGE'] = 'pil,sdl2'

Just gives mes this and now GUI :)
