need urgent help with blender-aid installation

[Admin Kolam Center]

Hi everybody,

As the title said, i need help to install blenderaid-py31-20101015 on
Ubuntu 10.4, python 3.1:

As i remember, i get same trouble months ago when trying to install it
on windows...Grrrrr :)

so i decided to contact you to get some help :

I did install all dependencies (i read the manuel carefully!) and
nothing looks wrong with it.

First, when i try to run server.pyc, i got this message in the
console: RuntimeError: Bad magic number in .pyc file ... ??? what's
that mean ?

Second, how to know if server is running ? do you use a special
application for this check ?

Third, when i run index.html, i see the content but not with css
applied (i know about php/css), and of course to close the story, no
project can be set !

i was looking at all folder and files rights and access, nothing
wrong, i'm a allowed user to access and modify it...

So, as you see now...i really need help..
Thanks

i'm working for a school where i teach blender, but this story is a
bone in my soup...
Bye

Hi,

My first guess on your error would be that you have multiple python versions running.
The error stating "RuntimeError: Bad magic number in .pyc file ... " can mean that you are starting the application with the incorrect version of python.
You can try something like: python3.1 server.pyc
If you want to know which python version is running try starting python (just type in python in the commandline) and look for the version number.

If you start the application from the commandline, you'll see the server running and giving feedback on the commandline. That's how you can see that the server is running.

If you want to start the index.html, the server needs to be running, otherwise the content won't be displayed properly. When the server runs, start your browser and browse to http://localhost:8080.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Monique
