Check this page for known issues with VisTrails Releases and how to work around them.
Rev 674
On Linux machines using PyQt4.2, there is a bug that causes vtk pipelines not to show on the spreadsheet.
Solution: edit the file path_to_vistrails_src/vistrails/packages/vtk/vtkcell.py
in the import section (around line 27), add
import sip
replace line 244:
vp = '_%s_void_p' % (hex(int(QtGui.QX11Info.display()))[2:])
by
try:
vp = '_%s_void_p' % (hex(int(QtGui.QX11Info.display()))[2:])
except TypeError:
#This was changed for PyQT4.2
if isinstance(QtGui.QX11Info.display(),QtGui.Display):
display = sip.unwrapinstance(QtGui.QX11Info.display())
vp = '_%s_void_p' % (hex(display)[2:])
Rev 559
There are two issues with the binary version of this release.
1. When the current directory is not on the PATH. This causes VisTrails to raise a Requirements not fulfilled exception.
Solution: Adding '.' or path_to_vistrails_install/vistrails to the PATH solves this problem.
2. When installing on a non-english system or on a custom directory, VisTrails won't start. This is due to absolute paths inside the bookmarks file.
Solution: Remove file bookmarks.xml inside ~/.vistrails folder. On Windows XP it's located on C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\.vistrails. On Windows Vista, it's located at C:\Users\your_username\.vistrails.
