Cannot do manual installation: django issue

[quocvjnh]

Hi,

I've been trying to do a manual installation on my Ubuntu VM. After running through every step, I found the below issue in the babybuddy.log file:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/var/www/babybuddy/public/./babybuddy/wsgi.py", line 1, in <module>
    from django.core.wsgi import get_wsgi_application

    @functools.cache
AttributeError: module 'functools' has no attribute 'cache'

My babybuddy.ini file looks like below:

[uwsgi]
plugins = python3_plugin.so
plugins-directory = /usr/lib/uwsgi/plugins
project = babybuddy
base_dir = /var/www/babybuddy

chdir = /var/www/babybuddy/public
virtualenv = /var/www/babybuddy/public/.venv
module = babybuddy.wsgi:application
env = DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE=babybuddy.settings.production
pythonpath = /var/www/babybuddy/public/.venv/lib/python3.10/site-packages
master = True
vacuum = True

Does anyone know what's going wrong with my installation? Thanks for the help!

Your uwsgi configuration differs a bit from the documentation. Is there a reason for this change?

plugins = python3_plugin.so
plugins-directory = /usr/lib/uwsgi/plugins

I infer from this that you built your own Python 3 plugin for UWSGI for some reason? Could you confirm that was built correctly with Python 3.10 libs?

I'll also re-run through the manual steps and see if I find anything that has changed. It has been a while since they were updated.

I have confirmed the manual deploy steps as documented are still working. I made some adjustments to reflect latest changes in Ubuntu 24.04 but otherwise the steps appear to be accurate. I'm going to move to a discussion for support. Please follow up if you are still having trouble.
