Installation problem Tracker 19.1

marcus.jansson · May 18, 2020, 11:28am

I am having troubles trying to install Tracker in the conda environment. It says ‘Found conflicts! Looking for incompatible packages.’ and after working for several minutes it gives me the error report below. Thankful for any help!

Interesting. I’ll play with it. Might need to update the conda package?

JPGD · November 8, 2020, 8:04am

Hi, before installing Tracker with the link, you need to install an update and install the necessary packages:

> conda update anaconda
> conda install sphinx sphinx_rtd_theme
> conda install tracker -c https://mfix.netl.doe.gov/.../conda/dist

Best Regards

I cannot install the latest version of tracker using anaconda or from source. The same error appears:

ImportError: cannot import name ‘is_pyqt5’ from ‘matplotlib.backends.qt_compat’ (C:\Users\Andres\anaconda3\envs\tracker\lib\site-packages\matplotlib\backends\qt_compat.py)

Seems to be a dependence problem. Is there any way to fix it??
Thanks!!

onlyjus · December 30, 2021, 7:01pm

Looks like matplotlib dropped the ‘is_pyqt5’. I’ll have to pull that out and push a new version. Or you could try downgrading matplotlib.

Andres · December 30, 2021, 8:14pm

Ok. I’ll create a new venv and try again from source. Which version of matplotlib should I install? I’m using python 3.8.10…

onlyjus · January 3, 2022, 8:39pm

is_pyqt5 was removed in matplotlib 3.5: API Changes for 3.5.0 — Matplotlib 3.6.0.dev1159+g29cc1b3d67 documentation

So anything earlier then that should be good. I guess I should drop Qt4 support now, look at Qt6.

Andres · January 4, 2022, 9:28pm

I’ve dowgraded matplotlib to the 3.4 version. The interphase shows up, I’ll test the software to see if it works. The following warning appears though, may be it is useful for when you’ll fix the dependencies…

C:\Users\andres\Documents\venvs\tracker\lib\site-packages\tracker-19.1.0-py3.8.egg\tracker\tone_curve.py:8: MatplotlibDeprecationWarning:

onlyjus · January 6, 2022, 9:31pm

Awesome! I removed is_pyqt5 and will work on pushing a new version.

onlyjus · January 7, 2022, 10:00pm

Ok I pushed a new version. You can install it into a different environment to test if you want with, replacing <token> with your personal token from the download page:

conda create -n tracker-22.1.0 tracker -c https://mfix.netl.doe.gov/s3/<token>/conda/dist

Then, activate that enviroment and run tracker with:

conda activate tracker-22.1.0
tracker

Andres · January 8, 2022, 2:14pm

Thanks! I do not use conda or anaconda, just venv. Did you pushed the new .tar? I could not enter to get the source file.

onlyjus · January 10, 2022, 4:49pm

Yes, a new .tar is up. Link is fixed.

Andres · January 10, 2022, 9:17pm

Done! Got no problems! it runs smoothly!
Thanks for the help!
Regards!

Hi @onlyjus @Andres @JPGD @marcus.jansson
I am trying to install tracker 22.1 from the source on Ubuntu. I run into the following error:
when I run the following command :
python setup.py install
I received :

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 3, in <module>
    from setuptools import setup
ImportError: No module named setuptools

and If I run the command:
python3 setup.py install --prefix /home/me/Tracker/
it finish the installation but it is not working. the following error is generated from running:
./tracker

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./tracker", line 6, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3254, in <module>

    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'tracker==22.1.0' distribution was not found and is required by the application

but if I run the commanad (without ./)
tracker
it gives me:

usage: tracker [--version] [--help]
               <command> [<args>

looking forwards to your comments. [I am not using conda ]

Best,

Andres · February 25, 2022, 6:32pm

I did not have any issues on windows. Did you try with pip?

onlyjus · March 1, 2022, 3:00am

what does which tracker give you?

I refrain from messing with the default python installs in linux for this very reason.

mhdabiker · March 2, 2022, 8:28am

@Andres
I have not tried it. if you mean using
pip setup.py install or pip3 setup.py install did not work as well.

mhdabiker · March 2, 2022, 8:29am

@onlyjus using the command above you mentioned I receive the following:
/usr/bin/python3: No module named tracker
I have cleaned everything and I did the following commands:
sudo python setup.py install --prefix=/home/iqraa/Optim/Tracker/build
then
cd build/bin/
then
ls
f2py f2py3 f2py3.8 tracker

then./tracker
and I have received a new error which is

QObject::moveToThread: Current thread (0x128d960) is not the object's thread (0x24cb6a0).
Cannot move to target thread (0x128d960)

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "/home/iqraa/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/cv2/qt/plugins" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Available platform plugins are: xcb, eglfs, linuxfb, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, webgl.

onlyjus · March 2, 2022, 3:54pm

Looks like you have a different command line program on your machine called tracker was well.

From the command line, in your install prefix dir, what if you run:

/home/me/Tracker/> python3 -m tracker
