Abstract
This document describes how to install the FunkLoad tool.
Unfortunatly the FunkLoad Debian package (old 1.6.2-3) does not work properly.
In the mean time you can find the latest stable Debian package here.
Or you can install the latest snapshot this way:
sudo aptitude install python-dev python-xml python-setuptools \
python-webunit python-docutils gnuplot
sudo aptitude install tcpwatch-httpproxy --without-recommends
sudo easy_install -f http://funkload.nuxeo.org/snapshots/ -U funkload
That's all.
Some parts are OS specific:
Under windows there is a trick to install docutils (see below), you may also rename the scripts with a .py extension.
libexpat1
python 2.4 is required by the test runner only if you want to launch python doctest, other stuff work fine with a python 2.3.5. python 2.5 is supported with funkload > 1.6.0
python distutils, on a Debian system:
sudo aptitude install python-dev
python xml, for example on a Debian system:
sudo aptitude install python-xml
EasyInstall, either use a package:
sudo aptitude install python-setuptools
or download ez_setup.py, and run it:
cd /tmp wget http://peak.telecommunity.com/dist/ez_setup.py sudo python ez_setup.py
This will download and install the appropriate setuptools egg for your Python version.
To produce charts with FunkLoad >= 1.9.0: gnuplot 4.2 on Lenny, hardy:
sudo aptitude install gnuplot
or visit the http://www.gnuplot.info/ site.
gnuplot (or wgnuplot for win) must be in the executable path.
The recorder use TCPWatch which is not yet available using easy_install:
cd /tmp wget http://hathawaymix.org/Software/TCPWatch/tcpwatch-1.3.tar.gz tar xzvf tcpwatch-1.3.tar.gz cd tcpwatch python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
To produce charts with FunkLoad = 1.8.0 : python-gdchart2, on Debian:
sudo aptitude install python-gdchart2
To produce charts with FunkLoad < 1.8.0: python-gdchart (0.6.1-8 is fine), on Debian:
sudo apt-get install python-gdchart
If the package is only available for python2.3 you may try to copy the gdchart.so to the python2.4/site-pacakges.
On non Debian systems you can build the gdchart following the Francois Meehan's page.
On Fedora FC4 (tested with python 2.3.5):
cd /tmp wget http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/python-gdchart/python-gdchart_0.6.1.orig.tar.gz tar xzvf python-gdchart_0.6.1.orig.tar.gz cd python-gdchart-0.6.1.orig/ wget http://funkload.nuxeo.org/patch_gdc_py.diff wget http://funkload.nuxeo.org/patch_gdc_pie.diff patch -p0 < patch_gdc_py.diff patch -p0 < patch_gdc_pie.diff # change in Makefile # PY_INCLUDE = -I/usr/local/include/python2.0 # to your corresponding path make # as a 'root' copy produced gdchart.so into your python's site-packages # directory
Should work also for Fedora FC5, it requires libpng-devel and libjpeg-dev.
No idea under windows.
Install the latest development snapshot available:
sudo easy_install -f http://funkload.nuxeo.org/snapshots/ -U funkload
If you want to try the latest unstable sources from svn
easy_install -eb /tmp funkload==dev
or:
svn co http://svn.nuxeo.org/pub/funkload/trunk /tmp/funkload
then:
cd /tmp/funkload/ python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
Install the FunkLoad examples:
fl-install-demo
Go to the demo/xmlrpc folder then:
cd funkload-demo/xmlrpc/ make test
To test benching and report building just:
make bench
See funkload-demo/README for others examples.
got a
error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.4/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)
Install python2.4-dev package.
easy_install complains about conflict:
... /usr/lib/site-python/docutils Note: you can attempt this installation again with EasyInstall, and use either the --delete-conflicting (-D) option or the --ignore-conflicts-at-my-risk option, to either delete the above files and directories, or to ignore the conflicts, respectively. Note that if you ignore the conflicts, the installed package(s) may not work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- error: Installation aborted due to conflicts
If FunkLoad, webunit or docutils were previously installed without using EasyInstall. You need to reinstall the package that raises the conflict with the --delete-conflicting option, see easy_install documentation.
If you still have conflict try to remove FunkLoad from your system:
easy_install -m funkload rm -rf /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/funkload* rm -rf /usr/local/funkload/ rm /usr/local/bin/fl-* rm /usr/bin/fl-*
then reinstall
easy_install ends with:
error: Unexpected HTML page found at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net...
Source Forge has changed their donwload page you need to update your setuptools:
sudo easy_install -U setuptools
Failed to install docutils 0.4 with easy_install 0.6a9 getting a:
... Best match: docutils 0.4 Downloading http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/docutils/docutils-0.4.tar.gz?download Requesting redirect to (randomly selected) 'mesh' mirror error: No META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" found in Sourceforge page at http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/docutils/docutils-0.4.tar.gz?use_mirror=mesh
It looks like sourceforge change their download page again :(
- download manually the docutils tar gz from http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/docutils/docutils-0.4.tar.gz?download
- then sudo easy_install /path/to/docutils-0.4.tar.gz
When testing make test return
### credentialctl: Stopping credential server. python: can't open file '/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/funkload-1.2.0-py2.4.egg/funkload/credentialctl.py': [Errno 20] Not a directory
Starting with FunkLoad 1.2.0 scripts are installed in /usr/bin, previously they were in /usr/local/bin, you need to remove them:
sudo rm /usr/local/bin/fl-*
No charts on your report. You need to have gdchart python module check import gdchart. See the Optional packages for help on how to install gdchart.
While building report you Got
File "/usr/bin/fl-build-report", line 25, in ? File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/funkload/ReportBuilder.py", line 216, in main File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/funkload/ReportRenderer.py", line 612, in render File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/funkload/ReportRenderer.py", line 635, in createCharts File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/funkload/ReportRenderer.py", line 869, in createMonitorCharts File "build/bdist.linux-i686/egg/funkload/ReportRenderer.py", line 938, in createMonitorChart AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'option'
python-gdchart2 is installed on your system and FunkLoad expects python-gdchart. Hopefully you can give a try to the latest snapshot (>=1.8.0a see section above) that is working with python-gdchart2.
While runing a test you got
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/fl-run-test", line 8, in <module>

File "/usr/lib/python2.6/doctest.py", line 219, in _load_testfile
return open(filename).read(), filename
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'path/to/your/testcase'
This means that your test file can not be loaded as a python module, (may be due to import error) FunkLoad then badly report it as an invalid doc test file.
To view the original error just run the testcase using python instead of fl-run-test (python your_test_case.py).
