Can you provide a little more information ? Is this error occurred when running (or during install) the app ? Did you use Mac (which OSX version ? ) or Linux (which distro ?)

Did you tried pip install -U rainbowstream to get the latest version ?

[yaps8]

I had the same output when I tried to install it with venv and launched it but actually there was an error upon installation:
$ pip install rainbowstream
[...]
In file included from src/module.c:24:0:
src/connection.h:33:21: fatal error: sqlite3.h: No such file or directory
#include "sqlite3.h"
^
compilation terminated.

error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1

---

The problem is the missing sqlite3.h which, on debian, is provided by the package libsqlite3-dev.
I hope it also fixes your problem.

FYI: You also need python-dev if on ubuntu, which the instructions don't include.

sudo apt-get install python-dev

Thanks @mikeforbes and @yaps8 👍

I am on Mavericks and I got it on running.

[orakaro]

@jikkujose : Do you still have problem with install now ?
I saw you talk about other features in another thread so guessed this was ok but didn't know for sure.

[theanalyst]

@yaps8 try installing libsqlite3-dev

[jikkujose]

Yup, still can't set it up in my home. I tried in office and it worked. At
home I am having Mavericks; it seems pysqlite is missing, but couldn't find
how to install it.

Did the installation wen fine without an error?
Can I see the output of pip list and pip install pysqlite on your env ?
By the way I'm using Mavericks/python2.7 too and output should be as below

(venv)DTVD@DTVD-Air :: ~/test -->> pip list
Pillow (2.5.1)
pip (1.5.4)
pyfiglet (0.7)
pysqlite (2.6.3)
python-dateutil (2.2)
rainbowstream (0.4.9)
requests (2.3.0)
setuptools (2.2)
six (1.7.3)
SQLAlchemy (0.9.7)
twitter (1.14.3)
wsgiref (0.1.2)
(venv)DTVD@DTVD-Air :: ~/test -->> pip install pysqlite
Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): pysqlite in ./venv/lib/python2.7/site-packages
Cleaning up...

Command	Log
pip list	log
pip install pysqlite	log

Environment:

• Mavericks
• Python 2.7.5

[orakaro]

Hey! Maybe I know this error - The reason is your Maverick and Xcode 5.1 clang compiler treats unknown passed parameters as errors .

Please see more detail at #10 and try the work around to reinstall pysqlite

I am running Ubuntu 14.04 and have python-dev and libsqlite3-dev installed. When trying to install with pip and the venv methods I get this error:

Let's try to specifying PYTHONIOENCODING before reinstall

export PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8

There is a similar question on StackOverFlow.

[erikcox]

Thanks, I got it sorted. It was my fault. Python 3.x is the default on my system and is what the pip command uses. I forgot I had an alias for pip2 which uses Python 2.7. so pip2 install rainbowstream worked great.
