[ome-users] Windows installation error

[Aleksandra Tarkowska]

Hi 

OMERO.web works with SQLite database as default. If you are using Python 2.4, you will need pysqlite. Use version 2.0.3 or higher. Python 2.5 ships with an SQLite wrapper in the standard library, so you do not need to install anything extra in that case. 


Your settings.py contains wrong database details. They need to define OMERO.web local database, not OMERO one. You don't need to modify them unless you wish to work with different one. If you want to do it please follow the instruction on http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.0/topics/install/#get-your-database-running

Thanks
Ola

  Thanks! That helped. The online documentation needs to be updated to say that for newbies like me. I went ahead with the Django web server installation and got this error when running python manage.py syncdb:

  Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "manage.py", line 108, in <module>

      raise ImproperlyConfigured("Error loading psycopg module: %s" % e)
  django.core.exceptions.ImproperlyConfigured: Error loading psycopg module: No module named psycopg

  My settings.py are as follows:
  # Database settings
  DATABASE_ENGINE = 'postgresql'    
  DATABASE_NAME = ''   
  DATABASE_USER = 'omero'             
  DATABASE_PASSWORD = 'omero'         
  DATABASE_HOST = ''            
  DATABASE_PORT = '5432'           

  # Test database name
  TEST_DATABASE_NAME = ''

  Thanks for your help again!
