starting trytond in windows from powershell, please help

[Elam Muchira]

I am setting up the development environment for tryton, and have successfully followed the steps detailed under this tutorial but am stuck at the last one. ( http://pritishc.com/blog/2014/10/21/beginning-tryton/ )

I cannot figure out how to start the server after successful installation. I am running python2.7, and have created a virtualenv where I installed both trytond and tryton using pip.

This is the error I get, when I test with comman trytond --version

(trytonsms)PS C:\Windows\system32> trytond --version

trytond : The term 'trytond' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program.

Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

At line:1 char:1

+ trytond --version

+ ~~~~~~~

    + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (trytond:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

Could someone please point me to the right direction to resolve this.

AFAIU you should add the trytond binary to the system path.

thanks for the pointer, but I am still not able to run it.

I installed tryton via pip with the folowing commands (and the install was successful)

pip install trytond

pip install tryton

I therefore do not have the /bin/trytond folder

but the installation copied files to  "C:\Users\xxxmexxx\.virtualenvs\trytonsms\Scripts" where I can see what I assume to be the tryton binaries (no file extension). I have added this folder to system path but get the same error

regards

Is trytond on Windoze an executable or a script?
What if you run 'python trytond'?

hi,

a "development environment for tryton" is first a develpment
environment for python.
You will probably find more people knowing windows on python list.
As most of us know unix-likes, if you choose an alternative os for
development, you need some knowledge about it.
An other solution is to host a virtual machine with Linux on your PC
and learn a few shell commands.
By the way, once you've set up a convenient solution, probably other
windowsers will be happy to ask you for some advice.

thank you all for your comments. I just realised that setting the dev environment in windows is turning out to be a real pain.

But I did manage to run the server with the "python trytond" as proposed above, only that I ended up with more errors, a search of this error on google did not yield any results.

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "trytond", line 15, in <module>

    import trytond.commandline as commandline

  File "C:\Python27\virtualenv\my_project\lib\site-packages\trytond\__init__.py", line 15, in <module>

    warnings.warn('Timezone must be set to UTC instead of %s', time.tzname[0])

TypeError: issubclass() arg 1 must be a class

It is probably a good idea to try other environments as suggested, unless someone can come to the rescue here.

thanks anyway
