Backports.ssl-match-hostname - Ubuntu

What am I missing here? All relevant packages (appear to be) installed. Cannot even get mopidy --version to run without this error. Defaults in the ~/.config/mopidy/mopidy.conf file. Disabled httpd and got same.

Ubuntu 14.xx 32 bit on a craptastic dual core.

How did you install Mopidy?

Can you run mopidy deps?

Both installation from pip and from apt-get should install backports.ssl-match-hostname by default. It’s one of Tornado’s dependencies, thus a transitive dependency of Mopidy.

Went right down the page here using ap-get:

http://docs.mopidy.com/en/latest/installation/debian/

I cannot run any switches for mopidy at all, deps, --help, --version, --letsforceanerror

All lead right back to the exact same message.

The error context seems to point to a missing or incorrect version of some dependency, but nothing was prompted in the install and the ubuntu-dev-tools and python-testtools are installed.

Just ran this. Seems like pip at least gets that installed or at least gets mopidy able to find it. Going to tackle the certifi next I guess.

Premium account?! womp womp womp…

So bottom line some things are not being picket up by apt-get, but I can go get them with pip and get it running. Hopefully the output here will help anyone else encountering this and get it corrected in the package (assuming the problem is not on my end, but not sure how…)

What does mopidy deps print now?

I’m curious what combination of apt- and pip-installed dependencies you’ve ended up with. Everything should work with just sudo apt-get install mopidy on Ubuntu 14.04.

Looks good now. I see the backports ssl listed. I wish it would have run before for comparison, but oh well.

The explanation here can probably be read in the paths the packages are imported from. pip on Ubuntu installs dependencies into /usr/local/lib/python2.7. apt-get install Python libraries into /usr/lib/python2.7 and Python applications into /usr/share/{application}.

To me, it looks like you had Tornado 4.0.1 installed from pip before installing Mopidy, but was missing its dependencies certifi and backports.ssl-match-hostname.

Ubuntu 14.04 comes with Tornado 3.1.1, which does not depend on certifi and backports.ssl-match-hostname. Those where new dependencies in Tornado 4.0. The mopidy package depends on the python-tornado package from Ubuntu.

To confirm that the problem here is your existing uncomplete installation of Tornado, can you try to uninstall your global pip-install of Tornado so that Python will find Tornado from apt instead? /usr/lib/python2.7 is later on your PYTHONPATH than /usr/local/lib/python2.7, so pip shadows apt.

To confirm that you already have Tornado 3.1.1 installed from apt, since it’s one of the mopidy package’s dependencies:

dpkg -l | grep python-tornado

To uninstall your global Tornado install with friends:

sudo pip uninstall tornado certifi backports.ssl-match-hostname

To confirm that Mopidy still works and now use apt-get install-ed Tornado:

mopidy deps

Thanks for reporting this and spending the time to find the root cause :slight_smile:

Thanks! Great summary on the root cause analysis and once Google indexes this page it should help anyone else out there using mopidy on Ubuntu 14.04.
