Installing Plone of Rocky Linux 8 Giving issues

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to install Plone 5.2 with python 3.8 on Rocky Linux or Centos 7

The steps which I am following is below

Installing Python

cd --
sudo wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.8.6/Python-3.8.6.tgz
sudo tar xzf Python-3.8.6.tgz
cd Python-3.8.6
sudo ./configure --enable-optimizations
sudo make altinstall

Installing Plone

cd /opt/
sudo wget --no-check-certificate https://launchpad.net/plone/5.2/5.2.2/+download/Plone-5.2.2-UnifiedInstaller.tgz

sudo tar -xzf Plone-5.2.2-UnifiedInstaller.tgz

cd Plone-5.2.2-UnifiedInstaller

sudo ./install.sh --with-python=/usr/local/bin/python3.8`

Choosing zeocluster, then 2 clients

After this above step I am getting below error

Updating zeoserver.
Installing client1.

Please help me with this installation

Easy! You're missing the header files for a minimum PILlow install.

First, I would recommend using pyenv and pyenv-virtualenv install python 3+ flavor you're targeting.

Then install plone prerequisites:

libz (dev)
libjpeg (dev)*
readline (dev)*
libexpat (dev)
libssl or openssl (dev)
libxml2 >= 2.7.8 (dev)*
libxslt >= 1.1.26 (dev)*

Then use the installer. Should be good.

After installing all the dependencies I am getting the below error

Please help @riker11451

I gathered the following depends:

sudo dnf group install "Development Tools"
sudo dnf install libxml2-devel
sudo dnf install libxslt-devel
sudo dnf install openssl-devel
sudo dnf install bzip2-devel libjpeg-turbo-devel poppler-utils libpng-devel

I also prefer python 3.9 series just to keep things current enough

dnf install python39 python39-devel

the problem I'm now having is that the installer won't finish. Unified Installer bombs on:

/opt/plone/zinstance/bin/python: can't open file '/root/Plone-5.2.5-UnifiedInstaller-1.0/helper_scripts/create_instance.py'

I'm root so why it has this problem is befuddling.

Specifically the error is with the python cache files, from /root/Plone-5.2.5-UnifiedInstaller-1.0/install.log:

The directory '/usr/bin/false/.cache/pip/http' or its parent directory is not owned by the current user and the cache has been disabled. Please check the permissions and owner of that directory. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.
The directory '/bin/false/.cache/pip' or its parent directory is not owned by the current user and caching wheels has been disabled. check the permissions and owner of that directory. If executing pip with sudo, you may want sudo's -H flag.

sudo -h does nothing and root too. Might be a shell related problem as plone_buildout has no shell assigned (false).

Bummer

I'll keep at it and report back.

Rocky Linux is pretty cool though :slight_smile:
