start-leginon.py: ImportError: No module named Image
Added by Jason de la Cruz almost 11 years ago
Upon starting start-leginon.py on a linux host (processing server), I get the following output:
[jason@leginon-pc leginon]$ start-leginon.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

ImportError: No module named Image
This error seems to imply that the "python imaging library (PIL)" is not installed. Indeed, after running syscheck.py, I get the following output:

This processing server is running Fedora 19, and all dependencies were installed through yum, including python-imaging. Please advise.

It seems that there some backwards incompatible changes done in Fedora 19 that might be causing this: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Pillow
Since we don't have any Fedora 19 machine in our lab (we only support CentOS 6), I recommend installing PIL from source (http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/) to see if that helps. Another option might by to run the following command as root:
echo PIL| cat > /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/PIL.pth
This assumes that yum install python-imaging created /usr/lib64/python2.7/site-package/PIL folder.

Thanks, the second option seems to work (I am able to see the GUI now).
