Description Zhe Wang 2013-10-22 06:45:08 UTC

Description of problem:
It always fail to deploy a python-3.3 app due to lack of permission to add or remove files in the installation directory.

remote: error: can't create or remove files in install directory
remote: 
remote: The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
remote: installation directory:
remote: 
remote:     [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/test-easy-install-14392.write-test'



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
devenv_3926

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a pytyon-3.3 app
2. make some changes in the local repo and trigger a build

Actual results:
The build fails with the following error:

remote: /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/setuptools-0.6c11-py2.6.egg-info already patched.
remote: running install
remote: error: can't create or remove files in install directory
remote: 
remote: The following error occurred while trying to add or remove files in the
remote: installation directory:
remote: 
remote:     [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/test-easy-install-14392.write-test'
remote: 
remote: The installation directory you specified (via --install-dir, --prefix, or
remote: the distutils default setting) was:
remote: 
remote:     /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/
remote: 
remote: Perhaps your account does not have write access to this directory?  If the
remote: installation directory is a system-owned directory, you may need to sign in
remote: as the administrator or "root" account.  If you do not have administrative
remote: access to this machine, you may wish to choose a different installation
remote: directory, preferably one that is listed in your PYTHONPATH environment
remote: variable.
remote: 
remote: For information on other options, you may wish to consult the
remote: documentation at:
remote: 
remote:   http://packages.python.org/distribute/easy_install.html
remote: 
remote: Please make the appropriate changes for your system and try again.

Moreover, the app became inaccessible ever since.


Expected results:
Building a python-3.3 app should be successful.

Lower down the severity since others are not always able to reproduce this bug.

Comment 2 Zhe Wang 2013-10-22 07:19:19 UTC

Moreover, I confirmed that this app was a Python-3.3 one:

Comment 3 Zhe Wang 2013-10-22 08:16:59 UTC

More info about the description:

When building python-3.3 apps with jenkins-client added, the builds will always fail as described in comment#0. Thereafter, even removing the Jenkins client, building the python-3.3 app will be stuck at this bug.

(P.S., the bug was first caught in the jenkins builds of a python-3.3 app, and I tried to reproduce it by removing the Jenkins client suspecting that the problem had nothing to do with the jenkins client.. But it turns out that my assumption was wrong..)
