02/28/2022, 7:07 PMThis smells of a python interpreter mismatch of some kind
Which Python is this, and how is it installed?
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:08 PMpyenv
3.6.9

02/28/2022, 7:08 PMAnd can you post the command you ran and the entire output (redacting anything that needs redacting...)?
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:09 PMits basically just
pants compile ::its a fresh new checkout
that gist is the entire resulting output

02/28/2022, 7:11 PMThat looks like virtualenv (https://pypi.org/project/virtualenv/) output to me.
So, @mysterious-action-44812 can you try refreshing the
./pants Copy code
curl -L -O <https://static.pantsbuild.org/setup/pants> && chmod +x ./pantsm
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:14 PMtrying it but that seems to expect pants2 stuff?
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:16 PMIt should not.
There are integration tests in CI against pants v1
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:16 PMe.g im getting errors about pants_version in toml we’re still using pants.ini
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:16 PMAha. What Pants version?
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:17 PM1.27.0
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:17 PMI think that supports toml .... checking.
It does.
Are you willing convert?
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:18 PMwhats the conversion look like?
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:19 PMHere was ours - not sure it's too helpful: https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/pull/9090
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:21 PMit looks similarish format so other than changing the extension what do I need to know?
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:21 PMHow about you read up here and ask when you hit holes. It might take a while to explain the format differences: https://v1.pantsbuild.org/options.html
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:22 PMk ill take a look - this is the simplest solution no idea why this started happening all the sudden?
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:22 PMNo idea - correct.
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:23 PMok, whats fixed/better with this new pants script so I can tell folks what we’re getting with this conversion?
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:23 PMAnd I definitely have no clue my guess is right. This could definitely be totally wrong. Its my best guess from the info you gave,
The fix is it solves problems like this! Maybe! Again, I'm guessing.
I mean, is there anything obvious like you upgraded Pythons recently? It may be you just need to blow away a venv that now points to garbage. I.E.:
rm -rf ~/.cache/pants/setupm
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:29 PMwait! aha I think that did it
e
enough-analyst-54434
02/28/2022, 7:30 PMYeah, so this is a standard virtualenv / venv problem. When the venv gets built it will retain links to the Python used to build it. If that Python is later upgraded - doom.
There is a whole PEP based on this frustration!: https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0582/
m
mysterious-action-44812
02/28/2022, 7:32 PMwhere there’s a will there’s a PEP
🙂
anyways thx
