There's a problem to follow mecha-docs.

I try to setup mechaphish.

So, I try to follow mecha-docs.

On setting up DB, there's an error.
workon cgc
cd farnsworth
cp .env.example .env
./setupdb.sh

except (peewee.OperationalError, peewee.InterfaceError), error:

It seems to a problem about python version.
farnsworth is for python3 however config.py is for python2.
I can't fix this problem.
Do shall I do?

Farnsworth is entirely python2. It should be ported to python3. I ran it through 2to3, but there are other conversions necessary - for example, converting instances of string.letters to string.ascii_letters.

I found a much lazier solution was to modify /home/{user}/.virtualenvs/cgc/bin/farnsworth to call python2 instead. Change the initial #! from python3 to /usr/bin/which python2 (or point it to a specific binary if you like).

This worked on Ubuntu 16.04.5

Also, meister will need to be similarly modified.

However, the DARPA VMs are no longer available. Does anyone have a backup?

Unfortunately, this whole project is here mostly for archival purposes. We have some other stuff in the mix as a replacement, but nothing really ready yet.

The same error happens to me. I worked on Ubuntu 18.04.
Let me know how to resolve it. Thanks!
