installation issues

Be sure you are running Python3
On the command line try:

Code:

python --version

It should show something like Python 3.9.2
SIP now requires Python3 which is the default in raspberry Pi OS.

I just cloned a fresh copy of SIP from GitHub and did not see any error.

Python six was used to help python code work on both Python 2 and 3.

i tried running the current version of SIP under Python2 and got the same error.

Thanks Dan, it's been on python 3 for quite some time but it appears I have both 2 and 3 installed. If I run it under 3 I get this:

xxxx@raspberrypi:~/SIP $ sudo python3 sip.py

A search on google found this solution:

Code:

find . -name \*.pyc -delete

Let me know if it helps.

Thanks Dan, that's got it up again. Something is still not quite right yet but it's only cosmetic.

The CPU Temp shows 42.0&DEGC

I'll see if scheduled programs run during the day.

The temp display has been fixed now.

Glad things are working.
A major upgrade like this can be painful. Sorry for the problems but it was necessary. Many of the Python libraries that SIP uses no longer support Python2 in their current revisions.

Yep all good with 5.0.40. Thank you for all your efforts. 

It's a great app.
