Installing python 2.7 on centos 6.3. Follow this sequence exactly for centos machine only

Okay for centos 6.4 also On apu.0xdata.loc, after this install was done

$ which python 

/usr/local/bin/python



$ python -V

Python 2.7.3



$ ls -ltr /usr/local/bin/pyth*

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      24 Jan 30  2013 /usr/local/bin/python -> /usr/local/bin/python2.7

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6162289 Sep  3 00:59 /usr/local/bin/python2.7

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    1624 Sep  3 01:00 /usr/local/bin/python2.7-config

So yum will use '/usr/bin/python' which is 2.6

$ /usr/bin/python -V

Python 2.6.6

"python" will give you python 2.7.

"python2.7" will give you python 2.7.

"easy_install" and "easy_install-2.7" will easy install for python 2.7. While separate files, they both seem to install into /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/

$ ls -ltr /usr/local/bin | grep easy_

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root     340 Jan 30  2013 easy_install-2.7

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root     332 Jan 30  2013 easy_install

note the dash before the 2.7

The easy_install's in /usr/bin are for 2.6

$ ls -ltr /usr/bin/easy*

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 331 Nov 11  2010 /usr/bin/easy_install-2.6

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 323 Nov 11  2010 /usr/bin/easy_install

I would recommend python 2.7 on all local machines

I suspect everyone is already ok?. To check:

[root@apu etc]# python -V

Python 2.7.3

Instructions for python 2.7 install on windows 7, ubuntu, mac will be on another page.

Because of centos 6.3 on the cluster machines, we need both 2.6 and 2.7 to coexist there. hopefully only there.

Centos relies on python 2.6 for yum

if you install python 2.7 in any way other than the following you will destroy the system and make yum inoperable

zlib failure message may be from internal python scripts doing uncompression and they may be referring to python module files, rather than looking at links directly. Not sure.

I believe only the x86_64 zlib is needed. i.e. you don't need 32-bit and 64-bit, but just follow these instructions. They worked on apu.0xdata.loc (192.168.1.160) on 9/28/2012

to check centos version

[root@apu etc]# cat /etc/redhat-release

CentOS release 6.3 (Final)

(also okay for centos 6.4)

How to install Python 2.7.6 on CentOS 6.3 (6.2 and 6.4 okay too, probably others)

stolen from Daniel Eriksson. Thanks Daniel!

(modified a little)

CentOS 6.2 ships with Python 2.6.6 and depends on that specific version. Be careful not to replace it or bad things will happen. If you need access to a newer version of Python you must compile it yourself and install it side-by-side with the system version.

Here are the steps necessary to install Python 2.7.6. Execute all the commands below as root. Either log in as root temporarily or use sudo.

Install development tools

In order to compile Python you must first install the development tools:

yum groupinstall "Development tools"

You also need a few extra libs installed before compiling Python or else you will run into problems later when trying to install various packages:

yum install zlib-devel

yum install bzip2-devel

yum install openssl-devel

yum install ncurses-devel

Download, compile and install Python

The --no-check-certificate is optional

cd /opt

wget --no-check-certificate https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.6/Python-2.7.6.tar.xz

tar xf Python-2.7.6.tar.xz

cd Python-2.7.6

./configure --prefix=/usr/local

make && make altinstall

It is important to use altinstall instead of install, otherwise you will end up with two different versions of Python in the filesystem both named python.

(Depending on your version of wget, you may need to add the --no-check-certificate option to the wget command line.)

After running the commands above your newly installed Python 2.7.6 interpreter will be available as /usr/local/bin/python2.7 and the system version of Python 2.6.6 will be available as /usr/bin/python and /usr/bin/python2.6.

Check with:

root@lg1:/opt/Python-2.7.6 ] ls -ltr /usr/bin/python*



lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    6 Nov 16  2002 /usr/bin/python2 -> python

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 1418 Jul 10  2013 /usr/bin/python2.6-config

-rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4864 Jul 10  2013 /usr/bin/python2.6

-rwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4864 Jul 10  2013 /usr/bin/python

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   16 Oct 24 15:39 /usr/bin/python-config -> python2.6-config



root@lg1:/opt/Python-2.7.6 ] ls -ltr /usr/local/bin/python*

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6214533 Mar 19 22:46 /usr/local/bin/python2.7

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root    1674 Mar 19 22:46 /usr/local/bin/python2.7-config

If things don't look right, you might need to create a symbolic link in /usr/local/bin

cd /usr/local/bin

ls -ltr python*

ln -s /usr/local/bin/python2.7 /usr/local/bin/python

final check:

sudo sh

root@lg1:~ ] which python

/usr/bin/python

root@lg1:/home/0xdiag ] python

Python 2.6.6 (r266:84292, Jul 10 2013, 22:48:45)

root@lg1:~ ] exit

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Installing and configuring distribute (setuptools)

After installing Python 2.7.6 you also need to install distribute (setuptools) so you can easily install new packages in the right location.

wget https://bitbucket.org/pypa/setuptools/raw/bootstrap/ez_setup.py

sudo /usr/local/bin/python2.7 ez_setup.py

sudo /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7 pip

The commands above will generate the script /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7. Use this script to install packages for your new Python version. You should be able to use "easy_install" if "which easy_install" points to the correct 2.7 versions 0xdiag@lg1:~ ] which pip /usr/local/bin/pip

$ which easy_install

/usr/local/bin/easy_install



$ ls -ltr /usr/local/bin/easy_install*

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 340 Jan 30  2013 /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 332 Jan 30  2013 /usr/local/bin/easy_install



sudo /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7 requests

sudo /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7 psutil

sudo /usr/local/bin/easy_install-2.7 paramiko



(for normal user, easy_install should work too, if your PATH gets /usr/local/bin first)

I had to rename pip and easy_install in /user/local/bin and create links. The existing ones were 2.6 variants i.e.

cd /usr/local/bin

mv pip pip2.6

mv easy_install easy_install-2.6

ln -s pip2.7 pip

ln -s easy_install-2.7 easy_install

result in /usr/local/bin

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 6214533 Mar 19 22:46 python2.7

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      24 Mar 19 22:51 python -> /usr/local/bin/python2.7

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      16 Mar 19 23:29 easy_install -> easy_install-2.7

result in /usr/bin

 ls -ltr /usr/bin/pip

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 281 Oct 24 15:38 /usr/bin/pip



 ls -ltr /usr/bin/easy_install

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 323 Nov 11  2010 /usr/bin/easy_install
