runme.sh error "ImportError: No module named datetime"

[Jiakui]

./runme.sh gives an error that datatime module could not be found. But I checked with "python -c "from datetime import datetime, date"", no error was given.

What's could be the reason?

Thanks!

./runme.sh

Hi Jiaku, are you running Ubuntu 14.04? A little googling led me to this page which makes me suspect that you may have a ubuntu version issue. The web installer has binaries built specifically for Ubuntu 14.04 x64, so you would run into other problems even if you fixed your python packages (if indeed you are running another OS).

I am running Ubuntu 14.10 x64, right now I am using the downloaded binaries.

Is it possible to build the binary from scratch? That might eliminate the problem.

Thanks!

[lukeyeager]

Sure you can, just follow the instructions in the README.

[lukeyeager]

Were you able to build from scratch? Did you ever figure out what was causing your error?

[Jiakui]

Yes, I built from scratch on Ubuntu 14.10 and it is able to run. I haven't checked the source of error for downloaded binary.

Thanks!

Alright, then I'll close this issue.

If anyone else runs into this problem, please let me know and I'll look into it more. I suspect it has something to do with the virtualenv setup for the web installer.
