Having no luck getting these installed on Ubuntu 14.10. Seems like it needs me to tear my entire torch installation and dependencies out before it can proceed. Many errors of the type: fatal: suchandsuch already exists - followed by more failures as it cannot find the intermediate build files it is looking for. Followed by inability to install anything after thrift libs.

Anybody have good luck with this - I am currently installed with soumith's torch-distro with no problems.

Issue is in make file for TH++. It fails during a test of c compiler claiming cc is really a c++ compiler. Which it is, as it points to gcc, which points to g++. This is standard linux as far as I know - and as far as i can determine there is no 'pure' c compiler available.

Anybody got an idea on this?

so...
can you try this version of the install script...

I forked it and made some fixes!
it works completely fine on 14.04.

If it does not work for you, I will start a 14.10 VM and look into it.
I also tested it with torch-distro

Thanks – still fails during flblualib build – looks like fbpython related pieces. Running for an airplane – will fill in details after I land.

Using your improved script and fixing a strange problem with my toolchain, it now fails building fblualib as below:

Looks like fbpython is compiling with python3 headers, and not python2.

I'm looking into a fix.

I ended up with the same conclusion. Tried removing python3.4 - unity desktop depends on it. Led to full rebuild - which has run into a problem with your torch-distro. Looks like latest updates may not be fully merged - sorry for problems. From fresh clone and sudo ./install.sh:

Ok updated all packages in torch-distro.
I am going to make a proper fix to fbpython to make it build with python3+

Where do I find the Torch-distro and fix the fblualib issues for 14.04?

Soumith, I tried installing from this as you had given in 3rd reply to this thread...


so...
can you try this version of the install script...
https://github.com/soumith/fblualib/blob/master/install_all.sh

The installation worked perfectly.. I'm still getting the same error when I try to import fb.python inside Torch.

I think by default, the python module is not built, you may want to add it back to the list here https://github.com/soumith/fblualib/blob/master/fblualib/build.sh#L28:

Do you have numpy properly installed (on your python 3.4)?

Is there a fix for this? When I hit python in the terminal, I still get python2.7.6

You could try modifying this line https://github.com/facebook/fblualib/blob/master/fblualib/python/CMakeLists.txt#L28 with
FIND_PACKAGE(PythonLibs 2.7 REQUIRED)

then cleaning the cmake cache of the fb.python package:
rm -r fblualib/python/build

then re-runing the build script

I have removed the cmake cache and reran the build script. I'm still not able to import it. I've tried updating numpy to the latest version too. I do not see where I'm going wrong. Could you help me with this please?

Issue resolved by updating numpy to the latest version.

Hi Kiran!
I'm facing same problem - python 2.7 + normally built/installed fblualib, but exception inside th looks just like the above one... 
Can you tell hat version of python + numpy have you installed (used with torch7) ?

Running command "luarocks list" gives this:
fbcomplex
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbdebugger
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbeditline
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbffivector
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbluaunit
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbmattorch
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbthrift
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbtrepl
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

fbutil
   0.1-1 (installed) - /usr/lib/luarocks/rocks

So fb.python is really not installed...

I've updated CMakeLists.txt under python to include '2.7' but still it seems that builder silently ignores python package to be built.
That's strange as fblualib/build.sh contains:

rocks="util luaunit complex \
  ffivector editline trepl debugger mattorch python thrift"

So it should be built.

I basically have no strings in output like: 

fbpython
or

updated to numpy 1.11 - without any results - python module is the only one which is not builded. Looks like make totally ignores it.

Hi Andrey,

have you tried this?

cd fblualib/fblualib/python
luarocks make rockspec/fbpython-0.1-1.rockspec

One reason it might fail is using `sudo luarocks`. This is highly not recommended with torch luarocks, I’d suggest to remove local torch and fblualib and try again without sudo. or fix the permissions.

I am having the exact same issue. As for the "sudo luarocks" may not work, it seems even in fblualib/build.sh they do sudo, as follows:

  # Unfortunately, luarocks doesn't like separating the "build" and
  # "install" phases, so we have to run as root.
  sudo luarocks make rockspec/fb$rock-$version.rockspec 


One very curious thing is that when I try to run the build.sh script myself it results in error (the same Andrey pasted). However, if I do everything at once with "install_all.sh", then "build.sh" runs without errors, but mysteriously skips over fbpython.....

Hello,

I have been following this thread, since I am facing similar problems that @andrey has mentioned. 

Ubuntu verison : 14.04

I cloned the fblualib repo and setup using the install , and the build looks like this .

When I do "require 'fb.python' " , I get this 

Then I follow the instruction that @sergey provided by doing a "luarocks make rockspec/fbpython-0.1-1.rockspec" and I get an error as this

I have been at this for a while now.  

Thank you for your time on this.

The module cannot be found because on soumith's branch, the install script is modified not to install it: https://github.com/soumith/fblualib/blob/master/fblualib/build.sh#L28

Ah. Thanks for pointing that out @alban. Is there another way that i can build fbpython for me ?

I don't know why it was removed here, if you add it back, does the installation works as expected?

@alban, I did a fresh install using the fb repo. I get the same set of errors, when I use the build.sh within.
