Error during setup

[KingMak3r]

Hi everyone!

Well I feel like Im missing something very basic here and would appreciate any guidance you may have on this error.

Alright, Im installing Upload-Assistant on Windows 10, installed Python/pip/MediaInfo/ffmpeg, added to PATH accordingly, renamed & edited config.py and installed necessary python modules.

I receive the following error when running C:\Users\USER1\Downloads\OldTV\Early.Edition.S02 or python upload.py --help:

C:\Users\\Upload-Assistant>python upload.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\\Upload-Assistant\upload.py", line 4, in <module>
    from src.prep import Prep
  File "C:\Users\\Upload-Assistant\src\prep.py", line 5, in <module>
    from src.trackers.PTP import PTP
  File "C:\Users\\Upload-Assistant\src\trackers\PTP.py", line 5, in <module>
    import distutils.util
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils'

This feels like a python error but I could be wrong. Thanks in advance for the support.

You don't have distutils installed.

pip install distutils

Run that command and it should install for you.

Make sure to follow instructions and install all requirements on the requirements.txt

Thank you swannie-eire! You got me to the right solution. It didn't work exactly but made me look at installing distutils.

pip install distutils

but:

py -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel 

worked for me!

Thanks again
