TypeError: open() missing required argument 'flags' (pos 2)

I tried deleting ~/.cookiecutters to force it to rebuild, but I get the same error.

I see some NFS files in ~/.cookiecutters/cookieplone-templates/.git/objects/pack/ but lsof finds no processes. So I deleted these files and confirmed they weren't rebuilt with new names (i.e. a process is still trying to use it). However I get this error when running the pipx command again

You've downloaded /home/myuser/.cookiecutters/cookieplone-templates before. Is
it okay to delete and re-download it? [y/n] (y): y
[Errno 39] Directory not empty:

https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Packfiles

"To see what happens, you can manually ask Git to pack up the objects by calling the git gc command"

"When Git packs objects, it looks for files that are named and sized similarly, and stores just the deltas from one version of the file to the next. You can look into the packfile and see what Git did to save space."

So there are files in pack but the cookiecutter "delete" didn't expect those. I would put a breakpoint here:

and look at what is happening.

I'm not sure what exactly you are suggesting I look for. The path is "/home/myuser/.cookiecutters/cookieplone-templates".

(Pdb) shutil.rmtree(path)
*** PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'pack'

I can't run any git commands there because it doesn't find a git repo, I guess because it's partially deleted it already at this point

~/.cookiecutters/cookieplone-templates> git gc
fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /home)

Well, you confirmed that when Cookieplone runs, it lacks permission to rmtree(path). Just thinking out loud:

  • Can you inspect the permissions of the path?
  • Is there some way to determine under which user Cookieplone runs?

DuckDuckGoing for the error message provided a couple of suggestions to try.

If either of those suggestions work for you, then would you please file a bug report in the upstream cookiecutter issue tracker and a pull request?

Yes, the .git/objects/pack folder was read only, I needed to +x to list the contents and see the two NFS files inside. I'm not a network guy but my understanding is these are file locks created by some process, however I couldn't find a process that was using them.

I ssh'd into the server with my personal account so cookieplone should be running on that. Does it need to run as root?

7

Python may not have closed the file or directory after reading it and exiting it. See the two SO links I previously posted for a possible solution to test by modifying Cookiecutter code.

There's also the file ownership and group membership to check. I think Cookieplone runs as the user that invokes it, so the file membership should align with your user.

I do not recommend running Cookieplone as root.

8

I don't follow how to adapt the SO comments to my situation here. I'm getting the error when it tries to delete the directory. Are you suggesting that the root of the problem could be coming from cookiecutter trying to improperly open something in a previous step? Any suggestions where that code in cookiecutter might be?

9

Yes, in cookiecutter. However, I think if you used pipx to install it, it was put into a temporary Python virtual environment, so it might get removed so you can't find it. I'm not clear about how it works.

Anyway, instead you could manually install cookiecutter, edit the file as @yurj and the SO posts indicated, then run it without pipx in the command line. HTH.

The error is on rmtree cookiecutter/cookiecutter/utils.py at b4451231809fb9e4fc2a1e95d433cb030e4b9e06 · cookiecutter/cookiecutter · GitHub and it seems that
the force_delete command does not sufficiently clean up. I need to do chmod +xr on .git/objects/pack and thenchmod +w .git/objects/pack/.nfs*. As to why those nfs files are there, I don't know, there does not seem to be a process trying to use them by the time I inspect. Maybe a race condition with git? Just a guess. I modified force_delete a bit as a test

def force_delete(func, path, exc_info):
    """Error handler for `shutil.rmtree()` equivalent to `rm -rf`.

    Usage: `shutil.rmtree(path, onerror=force_delete)`
    From https://docs.python.org/3/library/shutil.html#rmtree-example
    """
    os.chmod(path, stat.S_IRWXU)
    import pdb; pdb.set_trace()
    shutil.rmtree(path)

The odd thing there is that without the trace point I get an error that there are still .nfs files in there. If I keep the debug trace and then immediately continue, it works (or rather, fails at an unrelated later steps*). The value of path here is /home/myuser/.cookiecutters/cookieplone=-templates/.git/objects/pack

Another strange behavior is that cookiecutter/cookiecutter/vcs.py at b4451231809fb9e4fc2a1e95d433cb030e4b9e06 · cookiecutter/cookiecutter · GitHub seems to be called twice. The first time is called with no_input=True (no prompt) and then with no_input=False and the prompt. Even if I delete the .cookiecutters directory first, I will get the prompt that the template has been downloaded before. So I can actually just say no, and "reuse" the template I just downloaded.

*This is a tangent from the original post, but the subsequent error is that it fails to check the docker version because there is no docker executable. At my employer we use podman, not straight up docker, but I thought docker was supposed to be optional for the install?

11

FWIW I submitted a bug for the docker issue Fixes #62 by ewohnlich · Pull Request #63 · plone/cookieplone · GitHub I think it was just not catching the correct exception type.

      installation.
      !!

              ********************************************************************************
              An error happened while installing `voltofeb` in editable mode.

              The following steps are recommended to help debug this problem:

              - Try to install the project normally, without using the editable mode.
                Does the error still persist?
                (If it does, try fixing the problem before attempting the editable mode).
              - If you are using binary extensions, make sure you have all OS-level
                dependencies installed (e.g. compilers, toolchains, binary libraries, ...).
              - Try the latest version of setuptools (maybe the error was already fixed).
              - If you (or your project dependencies) are using any setuptools extension
                or customization, make sure they support the editable mode.

              After following the steps above, if the problem still persists and
              you think this is related to how setuptools handles editable installations,
              please submit a reproducible example
              (see https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example) to:

~/.cache/uv was previously empty. And after this errors out I am able to clear it again - there are no longer any nfs files.

13

That means that the process that opened the files did not close them. NFS thinks that some process is using them, so if you rm them, NFS just rename it so the process still have access to it using the open fd.

In this case, there's a lock on it.

I would force NFS v3 and mount the nfs without locking, if possible.

14

if you inspect the file .nfs000000000082008a000003da it should be possible to guess what process is using it, also using lsof on it.

Any chance to use a local file system via link for this directories? This would avoid these kind of problems.

15

I used lsof on the initial issue and did not find a process running it at the time. For the latest one, the voltofeb.egg-info is actually empty by the time I look at it. So my understanding is whatever is doing the locking is part of cookieplone or the make file.

Unfortunately I do not have the option to mount the volume without locking, and I am explicitly not using a local filesystem because my local filesystem is Windows.
