Error while running SAGA Python on Windows 10

[Aparrnaa Raghuraman]

Hi,

I am interested in using the Simple API for grid applications. I have an issue while running saga-python on Windows 10. I tried to print the saga version using the command python -c "import saga; print saga.version"

This throws up the following stack trace.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\sample\tutorial\lib\site-packages\saga\__init__.py", line 8, in <module>
    import radical.utils        as ru
  File "C:\sample\tutorial\lib\site-packages\radical\utils\__init__.py", line 9, in <module>
    from .plugin_manager import PluginManager
  File "C:\sample\tutorial\lib\site-packages\radical\utils\plugin_manager.py", line 14, in <module>
    from .logger import get_logger
  File "C:\sample\tutorial\lib\site-packages\radical\utils\logger.py", line 106, in <module>
    from .misc      import import_module
  File "C:\sample\tutorial\lib\site-packages\radical\utils\misc.py", line 7, in <module>
    import netifaces
ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

I have set the path for the utils folder in radical and also saga. Netifaces also seems to be installed in mine.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Aparrnaa

Hi Aparrnaa,

Thank you for your message.

Unfortunately, our implementation of SAGA does not support the Windows OS and it is unlikely we will port it to that platform anytime soon. May I ask what is your use case for SAGA?

Best,

Matteo

Hi,

I'm looking to perform distributed testing of a communication protocol and I'm looking to use SAGA for configuring a distributed environment.

Thanks,

Aparrnaa

Thanks for the details, interesting. Alas, I have to agree with
Matteo: it's unlikely that SAGA will work on Windows, and I'm afraid
our group has no expertise to support that platform. If you happen to
get it working one way or the other, we would be glad to accept pull
requests! :D

Best wishes, Andre.

Does the C/C++ API specification support OS X, Windows and Linux?

[Andre Merzky]

Well, the *specification* (as in the document which defines the API
and the language bindings) makes no assumption about the underlying
operating system. The problem is that our group, and really all of
our collaborators, only work on Unix based OSes, and thus supporting
Windows has never really been considered on the *implementation* end
of things...

Would be great if we started working on the implementation for Windows!

Anyway, thanks for your help!
