Python 2.7 on EC2
Hi everybody.
I have been tasked to set up an instance of Amazon's EC2 servers. Specifically, we're using the smallest Amazon Linux AMI. After plenty time on Google, I have the machine set up more or less correctly (I think). My greatest frustration came in the form of installing Python 2.7. I installed gcc and make, and was able to install without a hickup. The guide I was (more or less) following (here) suggested I use echo "/opt/python.2.7/lib" >> /etc/ld.so.conf.d/opt-python2.7.conf This did not work due to me not having the right permissions, even though I also prepended the command with sudo. In desperation, I touched the file, chmod'ed it so that I could do with it what I wanted to, and then changed it back to what it was before. Was the chmod hack the right way to go? Will there be dire consequences in the future? ;-) Please bear in mind that I am only very superficially familiar with Linux, and was mostly following guides. Thanks in advance! Regards, JB |
If you post some of the outputs from the commands you issued helps to understand what is going on.
