[bug] OSError: [WinError 123] with version 0.4

[KlopDesign]

Thanks for the great tool! However, with version WireViz 0.4 I cannot get a good output.

With wireviz demo01.yml and wireviz tutorial01.yml I get:
OSError: [WinError 123] The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect: ...
Python version 3.7.0 using pyenv.

I installed WireViz 0.3.2 and that one works just fine. However, demo02.yml does not work as in #304: Exception: First item not found anywhere.

Edit 14-05-2024: hereby my cmd output. Installed Python via pyenv: pyenv install 3.7.0

@KlopDesign - Thank's for trying out our new release, and reporting your problem here! Can you please provide the information specified in CONTRIBUTING.md to enable others to re-create your error situation. Please also tell us how you installed WireViz and dependencies. I also hope you can provide a dump of your CMD window where the error message appear (hopefully also showing your latest commands, exception trace, and your current directory.

I have experience a similar issue. All problems go away when reverting to version 0.3

[freiadam]

Same issue here. I have installed the new version with "pip install --upgrade wireviz"

[alecraymond]

I also have this issue when trying to call wireviz directly. WireViz\src\wireviz\build_examples.py works fine.

[kvid]

It seems you have found a bug that isn't triggered by the tests we have done. How do you execute WireViz? Please include a copy of the command line including arguments. If you call it from another code or script, please include that, but please strip it down to a minimum if it's large.

[freiadam]

I cd into the directory of the.yml file, then simply "wireviz u1.yml" like before.

I'm not able to reproduce the reported OSError here, but I notice my Python version is older than what @alecraymond uses, but newer than what @KlopDesign uses. My Graphviz versions is also older than what @alecraymond uses, but as far as I know, the Graphviz dot command has not yet been called at the place in the code where the OSError is raised. It's actually before parsing the input YAML, so I assume the Graphviz version should not matter. The log below is my test from a fresh installation similar to what @alecraymond reported.

I hope more users (both those who see this error and those who don't) will report their version numbers, because that can help finding a pattern about what is working and what is not.

Trying to replicate your results, I noticed some differences:

1. My Repos directory is not otherwise empty.
2. python3 required me to install python through the Microsoft Store. The same version was installed, but there may still be an issue with python installations and how my PATH is set up.
3. setuptools was not listed among my pip packages.

I will try again using an empty starting directory, python 3.9.13, and setuptools installed.

I have updated my log above to also include the extra commands @alecraymond just used, in case it might help to compare...

[alecraymond]

Another attempt with all other versions of python removed. There may be an issue with my graphviz installation this time, since dot -V was not recognized. I found the old source for dot - graphviz version 2.44.1 (20200629.0846) but I'll have to build it to more closely match @kvid's setup. I don't have any more time for the next couple of days, but I'll keep looking if the issue is still unresolved by then.

[JarrettR]

I'm getting the same issue.

Whatever the root cause is, the issue seems to be that the error type raised isn't ENAMETOOLONG, it's EINVAL.

My fix, without understanding any of the underlying code:

At https://github.com/wireviz/WireViz/blob/master/src/wireviz/wireviz.py#L413

Change the next few lines to:

            from errno import ENAMETOOLONG, EINVAL

            if type(e) is OSError and e.errno != ENAMETOOLONG and e.errno != EINVAL:
                raise e

[kvid]

@JarrettR - Thank's a lot for finding the errno value of the raised OSError and suggesting the fix! I've not yet been able to reproduce this error myself. Since you posted the fix here instead of creating a PR, I took the liberty to create PR #346 and adding you as an author. Some users find it easier to test such a fix from an existing branch instead of modifying the code themselves.

If you disagree how I did this, please explain how you rather want it, and we can look into it.

@KlopDesign @dmason1992 @freiadam @alecraymond @JarrettR and others experiencing this error, please test the fix in the branch of PR #346 and report back the outcome together with your OS and versions.

[alecraymond]

The fix works for me:

Installing the development version
Access to the current state of the development branch can be gained by cloning the repo and installing manually:

git clone https://github.com/wireviz/WireViz
cd WireViz
git checkout release/v0.4.1-rc
pip3 install -e .

(replaced dev with release/v0.4.1-rc}

[Basilisvirus]

I can confirm the issue.
After I updated from version wireviz 0.3.2 (which worked as expected):
PS C:\Users\Vasilis> pip3 install --upgrade wireviz
my new version is: WireViz 0.4 and when I try to compile a .yml file I get:

PS C:\Program Files\Graphviz\bin> wireviz source.yml

After trying the fix, I still get the error, but the .yml compiles and exports the .png and .tmp.svg as normal. (So the fix works). -But I think it should export a .html as well? Cant remember if it exported it by default.

@Basilisvirus the latter error message indicates the following issue/fix

• [bug] Pip package is missing templates dir and files in v0.4 #345
• Add template files to package #347

It should be fixed with the next release, so please try the commands from my comment above ==> #344 (comment)

[kvid]

The relevant fixes are merged into the release/v0.4.1-rc branch of PR #365 that is not yet released, but also describes how you can install the collection of fixes before the release.

[kvid]

Closed after releasing v0.4.1.
