Thanks again.  That was very helpful.

It seemed to make it to the petsc install before it gave up.  I highlighted in read what appeared to me in red.

Any ideas what went wrong and how I could fix it?

Cheers, Francis

Subject: Re: [firedrake] installing firedrake on a cluster

Hi Francis and thanks Justin for the good advice!

First, you almost certainly want to:

unset PYTHONPATH

instead of telling Firedrake to honour it. This is because it's unlikely that there is something in your PYTHONPATH which you want the virtualenv to see (this is why having PYTHONPATH set triggers this error).

Next, assuming that you managed to install pip using Justin's instructions (or by having the sysadmin do it), you can try running:

pip install --user virtualenv

yourself. If that works, try running the install script again. If it fails, then show us the error message and we might be able to understand what's gone wrong.

Regards,

David

Francis, I assume you tried get-pip.py?

If you simply run the above with system python (e.g., 'python get-pip.py') it will return an error because it is trying to install pip into the root directory which I am assuming you have no access to. What you need to do is install pip locally. I did this on my local cluster through 'python get-pip.py --user' which will install pip into $HOME/.local. I can't remember what I did next but I think I had to ensure that this .local directory was visible through PATH:

export PATH=$HOME/.local:$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH

and then pip worked.

Thanks again.

It would appear that I don't have pip installed.   (see below)

I found instructions on their site on how to do that and of course it doesn't work for some reason.  I will get to to him me set up pip and then try again tomorrow and hope I can get a bit further.  I will let you know things progress, when they progress that is.

Cheers, Francis
