So this is probably the first of a few noob questions and I am happy to update the Wiki or try to help contribute fixes (if it is not something stupid I am doing of course) as I learn the answers :)
So by following the http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/HowToContribute I am getting this error .... EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ====================================================================== ERROR: Failure: ImportError (No module named cql) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/nose-0.11.4-py2.6.egg/nose/loader.py", line 382, in loadTestsFromName addr.filename, addr.module) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/nose-0.11.4-py2.6.egg/nose/importer.py", line 39, in importFromPath return self.importFromDir(dir_path, fqname) File "/Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/nose-0.11.4-py2.6.egg/nose/importer.py", line 86, in importFromDir mod = load_module(part_fqname, fh, filename, desc) File "/Users/joestein/source-apache-cassandra/cassandra-trunk/test/system/test_cql.py", line 26, in <module> import cql ImportError: No module named cql I followed the steps new-host-3:source-apache-cassandra joestein$ sudo easy_install nose Password: Searching for nose Best match: nose 0.11.4 Processing nose-0.11.4-py2.6.egg nose 0.11.4 is already the active version in easy-install.pth Installing nosetests-2.6 script to /usr/local/bin Installing nosetests script to /usr/local/bin Using /Library/Python/2.6/site-packages/nose-0.11.4-py2.6.egg Processing dependencies for nose Finished processing dependencies for nose new-host-3:cassandra-trunk joestein$ ant gen-thrift-py Buildfile: /Users/joestein/source-apache-cassandra/cassandra-trunk/build.xml gen-thrift-py: [echo] Generating Thrift Python code from /Users/joestein/source-apache-cassandra/cassandra-trunk/interface/cassandra.thrift ....
