sextante plugin doesn't load anymore from build tree #16227

Author Name: Sandro Santilli (@strk)
Original Redmine Issue: 7176
Affected QGIS version: master

Couldn't load plugin 'sextante' from ['/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins/pyarchinit/modules/gui', '/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins/pyarchinit/modules/gis', '/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins/pyarchinit/modules/db', '/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins/pyarchinit/modules/utility', '/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins/pyarchinit', '/usr/src/qgis/Quantum-GIS/b/output/python', '/home/strk/.qgis//python', '/home/strk/.qgis//python/plugins', '/usr/src/qgis/Quantum-GIS/b/output/python/plugins', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/pip-1.2.1-py2.7.egg', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/nik2img-0.8.0-py2.7.egg', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/GDAL-1.9.2-py2.7-linux-x86_64.egg', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL', '/home/src/cartodb/cartodb/cartodb20/src/python-varnish', '/usr/lib/python2.7', '/usr/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-tk', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-old', '/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gst-0.10', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gtk-2.0', '/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntu-sso-client', '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/wx-2.8-gtk2-unicode', '/usr/src/qgis/Quantum-GIS/b/output/python/plugins/fTools/tools']

It used to work. The output build tree is /usr/src/qgis/Quantum-GIS/b/output

Works fine here with latest master. Maybe this was related to missed directory in CMakeLists file, I've just fixed this

Fails here with 8f25bcf -- can it be you have sextante installed system-wide ?

Hmm... there is also SEXTANTE installed with QGIS in /usr/local/share/qgis/python/plugins. Is this system-wide place?

qgib · 2013-02-17T23:21:25Z

Author Name: Sandro Santilli (@strk)

Yes, /usr/local/share/qgis/python/plugins does look like a system wide location.
Wipe that out if you can.

I guess it would be useful to have a switch to request NOT to use system-wide plugins. I see that as something possibly useful (to determine compatibility of non-core plugins) but also possibly harmful (to test/debug new installs).

Note that as long as you have old stuff in the system directories you would also not detect errors in the install procedure, as things would still work thanks to stale files...

After removing SEXTANTE folder from /usr/local/share/qgis/python/plugins I still can load SEXTANTE when running QGIS from build dir. And I checked, there are no other SEXTANTE copies in home or system-wide directories.

Author Name: Sandro Santilli (@strk)

I found and removed ~/.qgis/python/plugins/sextante and rebuilt from scratch (wiping out the whole build directory) but still have the same problem. Can it be you've something left in your build tree ?

Oops, reading the backtrace may be useful... It ends with:

ImportError: No module named matplotlib.pyplot

Do you know how to fix that ?

try install python-matplotlib ?

I think this algs should be disabled because this introduces additional dependency from 3rd party Python module

qgib · 2013-02-18T01:05:17Z

Author Name: Sandro Santilli (@strk)

python-matplotlib took me a step forward, but isn't enough: ImportError: No module named tools

Could algs be disabled at runtime when deps aren't found ?

Ideally a user would be informed about the problem and ways to fix it.

I had a similar bug with ImportError: no module named tools. I updated, and now I'm getting "ImportError: No module named psycopg2". I'm reopening the bug assuming it's the same issue.

After '@sudo apt-get install python-psycopg2@', QGIS loaded fine. Not sure whether it's an appropriate dependency so leaving open for now.

Proposed for closure.

Apologies if this is seen as thread-jacking; I have a similar problem which may be related:
Can't install Sextante. Small clip of the fail log (full log available upon request):

"File "C:\OSGeo4W\apps\mapfish_framework-1.0\site-packages\psycopg2\init.py", line 55, in
from psycopg2 import tz
ImportError: cannot import name tz

Python version: 2.7.4 (default, Apr 6 2013, 19:54:46) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]
QGIS version: 1.9.0-Master Master, b805894"

I saw this: http://lethain.com/when-psycopg2-can-t-import-tz/ but I don't think it's exactly the same problem, despite being similar...

p.s. I'm using OSGeo4W.
