Hi Team,

I am trying to install the appscale setup on my local machine and while installing appscale in ubuntu 12.04, running following command:-

sudo bash appscale_build.sh

getting following error message :- 

/usr/bin/pip install: error: no such option: -t

Please help me to come out of this issue.

Thanks,

Krishan

Hi Krishan,

The issue you are seeing occurs because that pip flag was added after 1.0 (the version in Ubuntu 12.04). There are a few ways to fix it. Any of these should work:

• Use Ubuntu 14.04 (I would recommend this because we test more often on Trusty than we do on Precise).
• Upgrade pip with `pip install --upgrade pip` (as root)
• Use the latest commit on master. The issue was fixed in https://github.com/AppScale/appscale/pull/2161, specifically in this commit.
