[bitbake-devel] Can't get bitbake running

[Markus Megerlin]

Dear Madams and Sirs,

I try to get bitbake running for several days. I tried the following
versions:

- 1.26

- 1.17

- 1.16

And last I also tried to checkout the branch 1.34 and use it. But this
attempt failed, too.

On Version 1.26 I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/home/megerlin/Tools/bitbake-1.26.0/lib/bb/fetch2/__init__.py",
line 39, in <module>
    from bb import data
ImportError: cannot import name data

But as I looked for the "data" file in the "bb" package I could find it,
where I did expect it. So I have no idea what the problem might be.

In version 1.17, as well as in version 1.16 there is another error occuring:

[...]

ERROR: Execution of event handler 'sstate_eventhandler' failed
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "sstate_eventhandler(e)", line 6, in
sstate_eventhandler(e=<bb.event.RecipeParsed object at 0x7f8facf37f90>)
TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__'
[...]

Summary: There were 67 ERROR messages shown, returning a non-zero exit code.

Traceback (most recent call last):

TypeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute '__getitem__'


On the git tag 1.34 I get the following error:

NOTE: Starting bitbake server...
ERROR: Unable to start bitbake server
ERROR: Last 10 lines of server log
/home/megerlin/Projekte/Innogy/GW_Firmware/fsl-community-bsp/build/bitbake-cookerdaemon.log:

The code lines resulting in this error were:

SyntaxError: invalid token (terminal.bbclass, line 30)


I'm using a Ubuntu 17.04. The python version installed are:

python --version
Python 2.7.13

python3 --version
Python 3.5.3

Maybe you know one of the errors and could help me to solve it.

Best Regards,

Markus Megerlin
