install on pilatus with old CentOS 6.5 #7

PhilLAL · 2022-12-08T22:19:15Z

Hello,
we have this Pilatus model

Here are some informations about the OS installed:

We tried to install Lima on it following those steps.

installing conda
I tried to install Lima DS, so I needed to install conda.
I tried several versions:

Miniconda >=4.11, I got

wget -c --no-check-certificate https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py39_4.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh
sh Miniconda3-py39_4.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh

    installed on your system. The version of GLIBC is no longer supported.
    Found version 2.12, which is less than 2.17

(same for py38 or py37)

Miniconda =4.10 (whatever the Python version), I got an error of conda env uninitialiazed.
Miniconda =4.9 (py39, py38 or py37), I got no immediate issue

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be incompatible with each other:

Your installed version is: 2.12

(same for py38 and py37)

At this point, my understanding is that the version of conda does not influence the result and I need a recent version of glibc.

Trying to update glibc, I searched for the available versions:

No version 2.17 seems available in CentOS 6.5 repositories.

I found https://gist.github.com/harv/f86690fcad94f655906ee9e37c85b174 so I give it a try, but I got an error of dependencies

it seems glibc 2.17 x86-64 is in conflict with glibc-common 2.12 i686

So I forced installation with

sudo rpm -Uvh glibc-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm glibc-common-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm glibc-devel-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm glibc-headers-2.17-55.el6.x86_64.rpm  --force --nodeps

Output is not very conforting and if i tried again installing a Miniconda version (Miniconda3-py39_4.12.0-Linux-x86_64.sh), it does not get an error :

My understanding is that last lima-pilatus can't be installed with last conda package version.

Your installed version is: 2.17

It failed also.

Does someone have a Pilatus to test installation and confirm it does not install anymore?
If so is it possible to push back an older package which work with glibc 2.12?
If someone succeed into installing Pilatus, could you let me know how to do this?

Regards.

Salut Philippe,
changing the libc on your computer installation is a bit aggressive.
We have a pilatus computer running centos 6.10, installed 2 years ago, and I did need to get miniconda3 version 4.8.2.
And this is a list of the lima conda packages installed.
Do not forget to specify the conda-forge channel when you install, main is no longer supported by miniconda.

Other solution I deal with, is to install the Lima server (conda and ,,,) on an other computer where you have newer OS and libc.
For this solution you will need to create a ramdisk on the new computer and to mount this file system on your pilatus computer as /lima_data, in order to make camserver saving files on the remote disk and having lima server reading the image.
I did that for 3 pilatus detectors at ESRF, with old OS.

PhilLAL · 2023-02-13T12:08:36Z

Hi @laurent-claustre,
sorry for the delay, we encountered a network issue which forbid me to continue the tests.
Your advice was precious and I succeed into installing Pilatus package, you were right since the channel conda-forge was missing!

wget --no-check-certificate https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py37_4.8.2-Linux-x86_64.sh
sh ./Miniconda3-py37_4.8.2-Linux-x86_64.sh
conda install -c esrf-bcu -c conda-forge lima-camera-pilatus-tango

Note: Miniconda (or anaconda) 37 is mandatory, 38 does not work (see below).

wget --no-check-certificate https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-py38_4.8.2-Linux-x86_64.sh

Your python: python=3.8

If python is on the left-most side of the chain, that's the version you've asked for.
When python appears to the right, that indicates that the thing on the left is somehow
not available for the python version you are constrained to. Note that conda will not
change your python version to a different minor version unless you explicitly specify
that.

So the version Miniconda37 is mandatory.

I continue following instructions in the doc but I got an error while installing mamba:

To search for alternate channels that may provide the conda package you're
looking for, navigate to

    https://anaconda.org

and use the search bar at the top of the page.

I so continue using conda:

conda create -n pilatus -c conda-forge -c esrf-bcu lima-camera-pilatus-tango
# seems to succeed

In https://lima1.readthedocs.io/en/latest/camera/pilatus/doc/tango.html#properties I see that breakline add space in config_file which should be removed.

laurent-claustre · 2023-03-03T08:27:07Z

Salut Philippe,
to install mamba choose the conda-forge channel:
conda install mamba -c conda-forge

PhilLAL · 2023-03-03T16:30:27Z

Salut Laurent,
thank you.

It seems my CentOS is too old.

Hi @laurent-claustre
I remember I did not confirmed the installation worked and I can also launch the device.
Thank you again for your help!
