compiling Rosetta 3.5 on cluster

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

I was trying to compile Rosetta on a cluster x86_64, kernel 2.6.18 and got the error below. I used: python external/scons-local/scons.py
Anybody can help?
I really appreciate,
T

This is because you are running an older version of Python, probably python2.4. (You can check by doing a “python –version”) The line that’s giving you an error requires python2.5 or later. (But don’t use any of the Python 3.X series.)

You may already have a later version of python installed. Try using “python2.7” “python2.6” or “python2.5” instead of just plain “python” when invoking the scons command to specify a later version, rather than the system default.

Alternatively, talk to your cluster administrator to see if they have an updated python version installed somewhere.

Using Python2.7 worked.
Thanks Rocco
