How to intall drush on hostgator servers - drupal-7

I would like to have Drush on Hostgator shared hosting. I just spent 1 hour trying various outdated tutorials (Drush now requires composer). Does somebody have proved, tested and working solution how to install Drush there? I'm using PHP 5.4.
My last achieved step is drush st error:
Unable to load autoload.php. Drush now requires Composer in order to install its dependencies and autoload classes. Please see README.md
Content-type: text/html
When I run php composer.phar diagnose I see:
Content-type: text/html
Warning: Composer should be invoked via the CLI version of PHP, not the cgi-fcgi SAPI
Checking platform settings: OK
Checking git settings: OK
Checking http connectivity: OK
Checking disk free space: OK
Checking composer version: OK

Incase it helps others, I had been using a variety of google inspired resources to install Drush, which just complicated the situation for me. I would highly recommend following the official documentation which is the main source of information. I even read on there that they only maintain the documentation here, not even on drupal.org.
I was missing this step based on other instructions,
Now add Drush to your system path by placing export
PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"
into your ~/.bash_profile (Mac OS users) or into your ~/.bashrc (Linux users).
These instructions helped me resolve the error:
curl -sS https://getcomposer.org/installer | php mv composer.phar
/usr/local/bin/composer ln -s /usr/local/bin/composer
/usr/bin/composer
git clone https://github.com/drush-ops/drush.git /usr/local/src/drush
cd /usr/local/src/drush git checkout 7.0.0-alpha5 #or whatever
version you want. ln -s /usr/local/src/drush/drush /usr/bin/drush
composer install drush --version

I think you are trying to use Drush version 7.x.
Try using Drush 6.x, I don't think it requires composer. Drush releases. I have had drush 6.4 installed on shared hosting environment successfully without any problems.

SnowSQL connection test fails with "No module named 'win32timezone'"

I've just installed SnowSQL for Windows as per the instructions at https://docs.snowflake.com/en/user-guide/snowsql-install-config.html#installing-snowsql-on-microsoft-windows-using-the-installer
However, when I attempt to connect to Snowflake, it fails:
C:\>snowsql -a <account> -u <user> --authenticator externalbrowser -o log_level=DEBUG
No module named 'win32timezone'
If the error message is unclear, enable logging using -o log_level=DEBUG and see the log to find out the cause. Contact support for further help.
Goodbye!
C:\>snowsql -v
Version: 1.2.7
Any ideas appreciated
What version of windows are you using? How did you install?
No module named 'win32timezone'
Per the official documentation snowsql is a python application. The error message above is a python error indicating it cannot find the aforementioned package. However, installing that package is not likely a fix as snowsql appears to ship with a version of python. Which makes a lot of sense, dealing with python dependencies is a nightmare.
I started a Windows 2016 host in AWS and installed snowsql 1.2.7 via the MSI. I was able to get to the login screen without any problems.
I would completely remove snowsql, do a search for snowsql and delete any folders you find, then reinstall. If it's still not working I'd provide more information as requested above.
This was acknowledged as a defect by Snowflake, and they will fix it in a newer version. The workaround is to install v 1.2.5, and invoke this version from the command line
snowflake <options> -v 1.2.5

Change mod_wsgi from python3.5 to 3.6

I have a flask app that used to run with python3.5 on apache2.
I am now trying to change it to run on 3.6 (i have sone type hinting in my code that is only supported on 3.6).
I have installed the module for python3.6, but when tried to restart apache and run my app, it fails.
When running
mod_wsgi-express module-location
I have the python3.5 version
/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py35.cpython-35m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
The same file also existis on my server in python3.6 dir.
I also changed my $PATH to run python3.6 as a default for python.
How can I tell apache to run on python3.6 and not on 3.5?
WOHA! It's working!
I uninstalled the mod_wsgi (sudo apt get remove libapache2-mod-wsgi).
Then, Installed the module via pip specifically to python3.6 (python3.6 -m pip install mod_wsgi), but at this point the apache still ran python3.5.I added to the apache configuration file (in ubunutu 16.4 the file is located at: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf and /usr/local/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py36.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so for RHEL/CentOS 7) the followings:
LoadModule wsgi_module "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/mod_wsgi/server/mod_wsgi-py36.cpython-36m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so"
and
WSGIPythonHome "/usr" and that did the trick.
I weeped a lot of tears over this issue, finding the apache2.conf file etc, so hopefully this will be helpful to anyone.
The LoadModule solution worked for me. However, I found it easiest to first ensure
a2dismod wsgi as provided by the default apache2 module. I spent 3 days looking at various solutions and answers and reviewing Graham's WSGI guide.
What I did in my case is was to remove python 3.6 from Django env and re-install python 3.5 and it worked.

Not able to install the GUI package(odl-dlux-all) related to OpenDaylight Carbon version

I am not able to install the package odl-dlux-all on the Ubuntu 16.04 machine. Following is the error message
Error executing command: Can't install feature odl-dlux-all/0.0.0:
null
VM : Ubuntu 16.04
Opendaylight version : Carbon
What is the issue?
Should i install gnome-desktop for this?
Prat,
This is what I have found. It looks like you and I were in the same boat. I ran into this issue, also. After additional searching, I found that ODL's website has a guide for the DLUX features.
These are the features I installed and it got me where I needed:
odl-dlux-core
odl-dluxapps-nodes
odl-dluxapps-topology
odl-dluxapps-yangui
odl-dluxapps-yangvisualizer
odl-dluxapps-yangman
Be sure you enter them as separate commands using the feature:install command prior to each of them.
I found the guide on ODL's website HERE.
I hope this helps!! :)
The way OpenDaylight's DLUX features are structured was changed in Carbon. Application-specific logic was broken out into odl-dluxapps-* Karaf features for easier maintenance.
Install and start OpenDaylight:
sudo dnf install -y http://cbs.centos.org/repos/nfv7-opendaylight-70-release/x86_64/os/Packages/opendaylight-7.0.0-1.el7.noarch.rpm
sudo systemctl start opendaylight
Connect to the Karaf shell (make take a moment for Karaf's SSH server to come up):
ssh -p 8101 karaf#localhost
# password: karaf
See the available DLUX features:
opendaylight-user#root>feature:list | grep dluxapps
odl-dluxapps-yangutils
odl-dluxapps-yangui
odl-dluxapps-topology
odl-dluxapps-yangvisualizer
odl-dluxapps-applications
odl-dluxapps-yangman
odl-dluxapps-nodes
features-dluxapps
Install the ones you're interested in:
opendaylight-user#root>feature:install odl-dluxapps-topology
In a browser on the same machine:
http://localhost:8181/index.html#/yangui/index
Login with admin/admin and things should work.
Here are the DLUX docs.
Note that DLUX isn't widely used by ODL developers, and isn't packaged as a product by vendors. Most people use the REST API directly to query OpenDaylight. There are REST API examples in the NetVirt Postman Collection, as an example.
It is true. You have to install all dlux features manually.
The Change against ODL Boron is, that Carbon removed feature odl-dlux-all. And in Carbon odl-dlux-core installs only core and nothing more. I had always gray login page in DLUX WEB login, there was nothing, only blank gray page.
I suggest you to use command: feature:list | grep dlux
This will create for you complete list of available DLUX features. And You have to install all of them.
After you finish installation of DLUX use same command with parameter -i which will show you only succesfully installed features:
feature:list -i | grep dlux
so you will see the result.
Don't forget that after instalation Dlux needs a few minutes to be fully ready. If you try to login to dlux during this time, you can get ERROR403 but also login page will not accept the credentials even they are correct. So be patient and wait.

Can't find dev_appserver.py with gcloud installation

I've installed gcloud by following the instructions on:
https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/quickstart-debian-ubuntu
gcloud is in my path at /usr/bin/gcloud, but the package doesn't seem to have dev_appserver.py in my path. Is it installed? How do I run it?
Platform: Ubuntu 16.04
Edit: By running dpkg -L google-cloud-sdk I've found it at /usr/lib/google-cloud-sdk/bin/dev_appserver.py but when I try to run it I get:
This action requires the installation of components: [app-engine-
python]
You cannot perform this action because this Cloud SDK installation is
managed by an external package manager. If you would like to get the
Also not sure why it wasn't added to my path.
I know the original question concerns Ubuntu, but I just wanted to share some notes for macOS/OS X in case it's helpful for someone else.
I installed the google-cloud-sdk via Homebrew-Cask and overlooked the caveats note:
brew cask install google-cloud-sdk
After installing the SDK cask, I installed the Python App Engine component, as #Rodney Jonace mentioned:
gcloud components install -q app-engine-python
Going back to the caveats note mentioned above, I appended the following the my ~/.zshrc file:
source $(brew --prefix)/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/path.zsh.inc
source $(brew --prefix)/Caskroom/google-cloud-sdk/latest/google-cloud-sdk/completion.zsh.inc
Opening a new terminal tab, I was able to call the extra Python App Engine scripts (e.g., dev_appserver.py) and use the Zsh completions. Hope that helps!
The following articles were also useful:
http://www.javatronic.fr/tips/2014/10/17/installing_google_cloud_sdk_on_ubuntu_with_oh-my-zsh.html
http://www.rainbowbreeze.it/how-to-setup-a-google-app-engine-python-environment-on-mac-osx-using-homebrew/
The google-cloud-sdk deb package comes with the built-in component manager disabled, which is preventing that copy of dev_appserver.py from working through gcloud. If you update your apt-cache, you can install the google-cloud-sdk-app-engine-python and/or google-cloud-sdk-app-engine-java packages that have just started to be published. Directions here:

ckan local installation, 500 error on solr JSP support not configured

I am trying to install CKAN on my local computer using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
I followed the instructions for installing from source found here and I try to check if solr is running by visiting http://localhost:8983/solr/.
I can see that Jetty is running because when I visit http://localhost:8983 I see that it is up.
I added the jdk as follows:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.6.0-openjdk-amd64
I am getting a 500 error when i try to open the solr page:
HTTP ERROR 500
Problem accessing /solr/index.jsp. Reason:
JSP support not configured
Powered by Jetty://
Any ideas? Should I redo the whole thing from the start?
Edit/Update
I just couldn't do anything with this installation. The bigger problem was that installation files were meshed up! I tried to install tomcat/solr instead of jetty/solr and things went sour. So I just created a VM and did a fresh install there. For anyone interested I did a tomcat/solr installation following this and a CKAN installation following this (with out of course the solr instructions). Also, for some reason the CKAN installation has commented out the solr URL, so even if it is right, I had to delete the comment.
A fix has been documented by #mstantoncook here [2939] & [1651] How to solr-jetty JSP support
Note the last comment, sudo service jetty restart
It's a Jetty BUG on Ubuntu 14.04!
There is nothing wrong with Ckan itself.
Actually, there is a bug in the libjetty-extra-java package (version 6.1.26 and newer) in Ubuntu 14.04. The bug was introduced after Jetty (in Ubuntu) has changed it's dependences from libtomcat6-java to libtomcat7-java.
You can get more info about this bug in Ubuntu Launchpad: Bug #1508562 "Broken symlinks for JSP support in libjetty-extra-java version 6.1.26-1ubuntu1.1".
The bug is already fixed on Debian, and I'm hope it will be solved in Ubuntu 14.04 soon.
There are workarounds that may work for your case
I proposed some workarounds in this bug report, and since they can be useful for the Ckan users, I'll also replicate them here.
All of them consist on use both jetty and libtomcat7-java, but adding/replacing some classes (code ported from libtomcat6, in put in the jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar file) to the Jetty classpath.
I don't know if they have some problem. Use them at your own risk!
Workaround 1 - Install the fix package proposed by vshn
I found this workaround here: https://github.com/ckan/ckan/pull/2966
In short:
wget https://launchpad.net/~vshn/+archive/ubuntu/solr/+files/solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
dpkg -i solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
service jetty restart
This will install a JSP jar that works (the file will be named jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar, but it contains classes ported from libtomcat6).
Workaround 2 - Manually install the JSP jar
Download the same JAR file that the DEB package above would install.
wget https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jetty/+bug/1508562/+attachment/4785985/+files/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar
Now, move it to a proper location inside the Jetty config dir. I did it this way:
mkdir /etc/jetty/extra-jars
mv jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar /etc/jetty/extra-jars
And add a line like this one in the Jetty start.config file:
echo "/etc/jetty/extra-jars/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar" >> /etc/jetty/start.config
And:
service jetty restart
Correct solution
The correct solution is to wait for the Ubuntu Team solution. However, while waiting for this fix, you can use any of the previous workarounds (I prefer the last one).
I hope they help you!
Try this steps:
sudo mv jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar /usr/share/jetty/lib/.
change own:
sudo chown root:root /usr/share/jetty/lib/jsp-2.1-6.0.2.jar
finally restart jetty:
sudo service jetty restart
I followed this steps and now I can see localhost:8983/solr and localhost/solr/admin
In Ubuntu 14.04 this can be fixed with:
cd /tmp
wget https://launchpad.net/~vshn/+archive/ubuntu/solr/+files/solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i solr-jetty-jsp-fix_1.0.2_all.deb
sudo service jetty restart
Following http://docs.ckan.org/en/ckan-1.6/solr-setup.html#single-solr-instance
(this one a bit old, but worked perfect for me )
You will have to edit /etc/profile and add this line to the end such as this to the end (adjusting the path for your machine’s jdk install:
JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk-amd64/ (or other version)
then
export JAVA_HOME
sudo service jetty start
