ModuleNotFoundError - Unable to install (?)

[evripidis]

I saw that it was previously reported but I can't see a solution #227

I'm following the instructions here https://github.com/AllskyTeam/allsky-modules and I get this error. How to proceed?

/home/lubuntu/allsky/venv/bin

[evripidis]

The latest one

Status: Running
Version: v2024.12.06_01

I can't locate any venv folder anywhere.

[Alex-developer]

Looks like you are running on Ubuntu which we don't officially support.

If you look in the config/logs/install.log there are warnings about the OS being unsupported.

Whilst we don't support Ubuntu you can try the following to see if it helps with this issue

python -m venv /home/lubuntu/allsky
pip3 install -r /home/lubuntu/allsky/config_repo/requirements-64.txt

With a bit of luck !! that will create the venv. Then try the module installer.

I suspect you will run into further issues with Ubuntu but lets see

Hmmm yeap you are right. I've passed the venv barrier (a little bit tinkering but is doable) but again fails.

The script is looking for the gpio and as I saw down the road, it checks the Pi OS, so yeah, I think that this is a no go for a non RPI unit, at least without putting some effort to edit the whole procedure.
