Creating locally hosted server

[Owen Alfaro]

Hello,

I am trying to create a locally hosted server, on macOS 11.2, and Im following both of the docker file instructions. When following the ones available in astrometry/docker/webservice, it says to run 
      python manage.py makemigrations

I keep getting an error module not found: astrometry.util.util, and Im not sure where to find it. The closest file in astrometry/util is called util.i. Is that is what is supposed to be imported?

Any help would be appreciated, thank you

Hi,

Are you trying to follow the docker instructions to build, but not actually using the docker image??

astrometry.util.util is produced by the "make py" step; if you do "make install" after a successful "make py", the astrometry.util.util module will be installed with the rest of the code.  You then need to set PYTHONPATH to include that directory (by default, something like   export PYTHONPATH=${PYTHONPATH}:/usr/local/astrometry/lib/python )

cheers,
