Good morning,

Wanting to do package development, I followed the advice in the WAPT documentation which indicates installing the waptdev package. However, during the package installation on my PC (Windows 11), an error occurs stating..

Code: Select all

EWaptUnavailablePackage(\'Missing dependencies: %s\' % (\',\'.join(missing_depends,)))\nwaptpackage.EWaptUnavailablePackage: Missing dependencies: wapt-7zip\n']]
However, during the installation of 7-Zip, it indicates a problem with the Python `imp` module

Does anyone have any ideas?
THANKS

Wouldn't wapt-7zip be an x86 version in your repository?

Indeed, I had both in my repository. I just updated it, keeping only the x64 version. When I try to install it again, I still get the same error.

Here are the 7zip installation logs:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\common.py", line 4142, in install_wapt
    setup = import_setup(setup_filename)
  File "C:\Program Files (x86)\wapt\waptutils.py", line 1589, in import_setup
    py_mod = imp.load_source(modulename, setupfilename)
NameError: name 'imp' is not defined

NameError: name 'imp' is not defined
THANKS

Hi Tristan,

thanks for the feedback :-) . With the full stack trace, it's a bit clearer. The `imp` module is a core Python module, so if it's not present, it means the agent installation is indeed corrupted. This can happen with antivirus programs that block certain files during installation; in that case, you need to add an exception.

I'm marking the topic as RESOLVED.

Best regards,

Denis
