Issue with updating requirements in bench

Install / Update
1

When running

bench update

the following error is thrown:

INFO:bench.utils:./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-Q_QkNm/frappe/

When I try to manually run pip on the above requirements, it fails with

./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt
Invalid requirement: './apps/erpnext/requirements.txt'
It looks like a path. Does it exist ?

The file indeed exists.

The full Python trace is

The installation runs otherwise smoothly, also bench migrate and so on.

Any ideas what is wrong?

I don’t know if it can help, but just an idea in the full Python trace, you have
INFO:bench.utils:./env/bin/pip install -q -r /home/frappe/.bench/requirements.txt as I understood it’s for bench requirements and INFO:bench.utils:./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt and for erpnext, you don’t have such line for frappe maybe you should run ./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/frappe/requirements.txt

@Natalia,

many thanks for the tipps.
These commands work fine

./env/bin/pip install -q -r /home/frappe/.bench/requirements.txt
./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/frappe/requirements.txt

But this fails:

./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt

The content is

frappe
unidecode

If I try to manually install

pip install frappe

It fails with You must have test.fm >= 1.0.4 installed before (GitHub - grafos-ml/frappe: Recommendations Serving Engine using python)

That was not a requirement before to my knowledge…

Any ideas are welcome…

Sorry but which error you received, when you run manually ./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt?
and I cannot understand why you tried to install frappe if you have it, from you first post I’ve understood that you received problem with bench update.

When I run ./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt, the error is

Invalid requirement: './apps/erpnext/requirements.txt'
It looks like a path. Does it exist ?

So, I have looked into the file with cat ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt which returns

frappe
unidecode

Therefore, trying to install manually the depending packages, I ran

./env/bin/pip install frappe

This tries do load Downloading frappe-2.1.4.tar.gz (217kB) whereas in a working configuration it says Requirement already satisfied: frappe in ./apps/frappe instead…

You are right, I do have frappe (/home/frappe/frappe-bench/apps/frappe) installed. Could I then remove “frappe” from the requirements.txt file? If I do that, the update works just fine.
I have also checked and made sure that read access is granted for the file…

Could it be that there are conflicting pip packages?

Possibly conflicting package:

 https://pypi.python.org/pypi/frappe/2.1.4

Hi,
I don’t think that you should run ./env/bin/pip install frappe because as I’ve understood, you have frappe.
If you run bench update what have you received?
I have in my ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt

frappe
unidecode

So, I don’t think that you should remove it.

bench update fails with

INFO:bench.utils:./env/bin/pip install -q -r ./apps/erpnext/requirements.txt
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-Q_QkNm/frappe/

Operating system is Debian 9 (stretch) amd64.

Does anyone know the above mentioned frappe package from pip?
