I am getting an error installing 2.7 from scratch. When running the command “sudo python2 setup\_OpenELIS.py” I am getting an error that reads:

Traceback (most recent call last):  
File “setup\_OpenELIS.py”, line 17, in   
import configparser  
ImportError: No module named configparser

Hi Phil,

Sorry about that, I need to update the installer doc. Try this.

sudo python3 setup\_OpenELIS.py

So during the install should “sudo apt install python2” be “sudo apt install python3” as well?

Exactly. We updated the version of python when we released 2.7 (as 2 is going end of life), I’ve updated the doc to reflect this, thank you for pointing it out!
