Hi there,
I want to set up my development environment for OVS and found the hint that ''utilities/ovs-dev.py'' may be useful.
So I followed the instructions provided by "./ovs-dev.py doc" straightforward.
Everything up to "./ovs-dev.py conf make" was successful, but I am not able to install the kernel modules, since they are not existing in "datapath/linux/".
So I found the "modinst" parameter, but this also fails:
./ovs-dev.py modinst
------> sudo ./ovs-dev.py modinst
sudo: ./ovs-dev.py: command not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 488, in <module>
main()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 484, in main
cmd()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 310, in modinst
sudo()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 62, in sudo
_sh(" ".join(["sudo"] + sys.argv), check=True)
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 51, in _sh
subprocess.check_call(args, shell=shell)
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 364, in check_call
raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd)
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '('sudo ./ovs-dev.py modinst',)' returned non-zero exit status 1.
Furthermore, running the switch is the same:
./ovs-dev.py run
------> sudo ./ovs-dev.py run
sudo: ./ovs-dev.py: command not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 488, in <module>
main()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 484, in main
cmd()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 229, in run
sudo()
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 62, in sudo
_sh(" ".join(["sudo"] + sys.argv), check=True)
File "./ovs-dev.py", line 51, in _sh
subprocess.check_call(args, shell=shell)
File "/usr/lib/python3.8/subprocess.py", line 364, in check_call
raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd)
subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '('sudo ./ovs-dev.py run',)' returned non-zero exit status 1.
Do you have any idea how to get it working?
Best regards,
Stefan
