Can't create accounts anymore

[miguelrs]

I gave this repo a try some weeks ago and got it working correctly, and then I removed the containers and everything from Docker...

Now I wanted to make it work again, and I can't create accounts anymore... I first removed everything with this instructions you posted in other issue:

docker-compose stop && docker-compose rm -f
docker volume rm nylas_part nylas_redis nylas_mysql

And then up again with:

docker-compose up -d mysql
docker-compose up -d

I get some warnings in the logs, but it seems to get the containers running and the DB initialised... However, when I try to create an account with root@sync-engine:/opt/sync-engine# sudo -uinbox bin/inbox-auth [email protected], I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bin/inbox-auth", line 11, in <module>
    from inbox.config import config
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gevent/builtins.py", line 93, in __import__
    result = _import(*args, **kwargs)
ImportError: No module named config

Am I missing some step? iirc it wasn't any difficult last time I got it working 🤔

Note 1: I tried running the DB creation script manually, but it says it won't create any DB because they exist...

Note 2: I've read some people had similar issues with the sync engine, and they said they solved it running setup.sh. I tried that, and it seems to update some packages, and then ends up with:

Ensuring libsodium version...
Ensuring redis version...
Downloading and installing redis-2.8.17...

I did a bit of research and looks to me like it might be related to Python versions, but I have no idea about Python 😓

Also noticed the mysql image has an update from a couple of days ago. Not sure if this can be reason...

With latest version of sync-engine, I encountered issue with python load path too (I'm not familiar with python, neither). I fixed the issue by adding an environment variable PYTHONPATH set to /opt/sync-engine but didn't think of running bin/inbox-auth with sudo.

As a workaround, you can run sudo -uinbox PYTHONPATH=. bin/inbox-auth [email protected].

I'll try to find a cleaner solution to run this command, though.

yay! sudo -uinbox PYTHONPATH=. bin/inbox-auth [email protected] worked for me 🎉

Thanks a lot for the repo and quick and accurate support 👍

Feel free to close this unless you want to keep it open as a reminder / for other people to give solutions...
