Problem with Plone OS X installer on OS X 10.4.11

Hi,
I just downloaded the OS X dmg installer for Plone. When I run the installer, on the "Installation Type" stage, it indicates the installed "Size" for both the "Stand-Alone Instance" (which I checked) and the "Zeo Cluster" (which I unchecked) is "0 bytes". When I click "Install" it runs for a moment and comes back with the message: "There were errors installing the software", "Please try installing again". No matter how many times I try, I get the same thing. Re-booting my machine doesn't help. This seems to be a very odd but fundamental problem. I looked in the system logs to see what errors might be there and all I see is this: Jul 12 12:05:40 plone-test : Hardware: MacBook1,1 @ 2000 MHz (x2), 2048 MB Jul 12 12:05:40 plone-test : Running OS Build: 8S2167 Jul 12 12:05:41 plone-test : Plone 3.2.3 Installation Log Jul 12 12:05:41 plone-test : Opened from: /Volumes/Plone-3.2.3/Plone-3.2.3.mpkg Jul 12 12:05:41 plone-test : Distribution: Plone 3.2.3 Jul 12 12:05:41 plone-test : It took 0.261107 seconds to finish launching.

I'm running on OS X (10.4.11) with native Python 2.5.2. (I realize Plone installs it's own copy of Python). Any help would be appreciated, I really want to investigate whether Plone is suited for a project I'm doing. Thanks |

The real error here is:
Jul 12 12:05:48 plone-test : preflight[400]: ImportError: No module named wx This means that the system Python didn't have wxwidgets available, which should be a part of the standard system Python on a 10.4.11 install. Is there any chance you've replaced the system Python? (There's also some chance that there's been a regression in the installer. I don't check every release on a 10.4.x machine.) If the problem is a change in the system Python, the thing to do would be to install the XCode tools and use the Unified Installer rather than the interactive binary installer.

Thanks Steve.
The Python install should be the OS X 10.4.11 system install, as it came on the machine with any OS X patches Apple may have made. When Python starts up, it prints: plone-test:~plone-user$ python Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Feb 22 2008, 07:57:53) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5363)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. I have XCode installed on this test machine. But I kind of was hoping I wouldn't have to use the Universal installer, maybe I'll try to figure out if there is some way to get the wxwidgets tools installed on this system so I can still use the OS X binary installer.

I'm away from my office, and don't have access to a 10.4 machine at the moment. But, the 10.4 machines I've tested with in the past all have wx in the library for the included Python.
http://www.python.org/download/mac/ might be a source for a build that should have wx. On Sun, Jul 12, 2009 at 3:01 PM, zif <[hidden email]> wrote:

Some javascript/style in this post has been disabled (why?)
Hi Steve, Turns out this machine had that download of Python 2.5.2 installed locally for testing some other apps. Python 2.3 is the default system install. So I decided to try to install wxPython from wxpython.org in that local Python 2.5.2 install just to see if I might get lucky before reverting the machine back to the default system Python 2.3 (which indeed does have wx installed as you indicate). Fortunately, I did get lucky and Plone installed just fine, running on it's own copy of Python 2.4 after that of course. I apologize for not checking this out more fully before posting. But I guess at least now we have another data point showing just how robust the Plone Mac installer is. I complement you on
that good work. Thanks very much.
