Plone 5.0.10 install error

Development Installer
1

when installing Plone 5.0.10 with Plone-5.0.10-UnifiedInstaller I get the error message below. Anyone knows what the Propblem is?

Install log:…..

error: Setup script exited with error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1
An error occurred when trying to install /home/users/mlpd/Plone_rfnews_dev/buildout-cache/downloads/dist/MultiMapping-2.13.0.zip. Look above this message for any errors that were output by easy_install.
While:
Installing.
Getting section instance.
Initializing section instance.
Installing recipe plone.recipe.zope2instance.
Getting distribution for 'MultiMapping==2.13.0'.

An internal error occurred due to a bug in either zc.buildout or in a
recipe being used:

First, I thought that this post is from 2016, not from 2026 :skull:
The only recommendation: take the debugger and analyze the related error condition.
Python 2.7 and Plone 5.0 are totally outdated and unsupported.

Search for similar errors in the forum. Do you have all the requirements? Dev libraries and headers?

I was able to build outdated Docker images with outdated Plone versions (4.3.x) for some customers. If you are interested, you can DM me :slight_smile: (It’s not an easy task)

I briefly chased this for you and noticed that there is a .dev version that includes different dependency pins. Comparing master...2.13 · zopefoundation/MultiMapping · GitHub

That Multimapping package seems to be doing something unusual that maybe, perhaps, your site does not need. My approach would be to see if you can do without, and start. Once you have a running Plone, immediately update it to 5.1-latest or higher.

Good luck.
