[galaxy-dev] error installing dependency for tool shed repository.

21 Aug 2013

      I've just created a repository  in the sandbox and have been trying to test the installation of  a dependency my tool needs.  The tool needs the python module "requests"  and I've written code. I get an error:
STDERR
python: can't open file 'setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

I've modeled my code on examples I've found in the tool shed.   I've replaced the requests module with other python  modules and these are installed ok.   I can also  download and  manually install requests with  "python setup.py install"

Any suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong?

tool_dependencies.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<tool_dependency>
    <package name="requests" version="1.2.3">
        <install version="1.0">
            <actions>
                <action type="download_by_url">http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/r/requests/requests-1.2.3.tar.gz</action>
                <action type="make_directory">$INSTALL_DIR/lib/python</action>
                <action type="make_directory">$INSTALL_DIR/bin</action>
                <action type="set_environment">
                    <environment_variable name="PYTHONPATH" action="append_to">$INSTALL_DIR/lib/python</environment_variable>
                    <environment_variable name="PATH" action="prepend_to">$INSTALL_DIR/bin</environment_variable>
                </action>
                <action type="shell_command">python setup.py install --home $INSTALL_DIR --install-scripts $INSTALL_DIR/bin</action>
            </actions>
        </install>
        <readme>
        </readme>
    </package>
</tool_dependency>

ingTest.xml:
