For components like senaite.health and senaite.instruments, add them to your buildout.cfg file in the eggs section. There’s an example senaite.health buildout file here:
Please help! The following error occurred during setup.
$ python bootstrap.py
File “bootstrap.py”, line 7
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
Which boostrap.py are you using?
https://github.com/senaite/senaite.lims/blob/1.x/bootstrap.py
Line 7 of this bootstrap.py is a comment line.
Also, confirm you have zc.buildout installed before running bootstrap.py
I’m sure it works as you say, but it still prompts the same error. Also found that I ignore this step to operate senaite LIMS seems to be able to run
I’m sure it works as you say but it still prompts the same error.Can you provide your bootstrap.py?
It appears as if the wget command has downloaded an HTML file in stead of the actual bootstrap.py file. If I enter the url (https://github.com/senaite/senaite.lims/blob/1.x/bootstrap.py) into a browser I can get to the file, but I think we need to specify the raw url. Will try that now.
I got it working removing the created html (or html-like) file:
$rm bootstrap.py
(Obviously not necessary if you haven’t run the wget command yet).
Downloaded the raw bootstrap.py file from github:
$wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/senaite/senaite.lims/1.x/bootstrap.py
Then run your command:
$python bootstrap.py

Thanks for sharing that great guide, which I followed for a successful installation of senaite 2.
I would ask about senaite.health current state. Is it already supported by senaite 2 or still in development state ?
If it is supported, any guide for adding this addon will be helpful. The current GitHub instructions are for senaite 1.x
Hi @m3mo3_83, I do not think SENAITE Health is going to be implemented in 2.x, there are some addons for 2.x that already complement the health entities such as patients, etc
Hi @Jeff-DFWEnv I’m having trouble trying to run $python bootstrap.py, the error that it’s regarding zc.buildout:
What could be the problem ?
Some problem with the bootstrap.py file.
The previous release of Senaite 1.3 included a bootstrap.py but this version 2 does not. I borrowed the bootstrap.py file from version 1.3. I may have made a modification in mine, I can’t remember. Let me take a look and also ask the folks in lobby if they can include a bootstrap.py with version 2.0.

Hello!
I use your instruction for installation Senaite LIMS, and when i go to step “Start the instance in foreground bin/instance fg”, i have a error:
How to fix it?
Linux Ubuntu 18.04.6
Python 2.7
Senaite LIMS 2
Same problem: Installing senaite lims 2.0
@viktor77796, That is a weird error, sorry I don’t really know how to help.
Are you using Linux Ubuntu server, or the gui version?
I managed to install it successfully earlier this year (2022) with this same guide, but used Linux 18 LTS server, without the GUI, not sure if it makes a difference. I’m assuming it shouldn’t but I read somewhere that it may work better, hence tried it and it worked fairly easily. I also failed on the GUI Ubuntu version though. Let us know if you succeed.
Good day!
I used Linux Ubuntu Server 18.04.6 LTS (without GUI) and installed according to the instructions above. Now everything is working. Thanks a lot!
