Ubuntu 18.04

I'm also at ubuntu 18.04 but it's working fine, could you paste .profile here and what version of go binary you install?

Hit the same issue on Ubuntu 18.04.

BUILD_TESTS=0 ./boostrap.sh will allow you to continue without bootstrapping test environment

I'm encountering this same bug in Ubuntu 19.04. @raimondasv that command helps get me past it for now.

[saifalharthi]

I did unset PYTHONPATH and it worked well for me.

[PrismaPhonic]

I just tried that and no dice. I'll try it again with that command but building Vitess (with deps) as the very first thing I do after a fresh Ubuntu install (playing around in a VM right now).

You need to build vitess this way only if you plan to contribute. Otherwise, you can just download binaries from PlanetScale:

[sougou]

Sorry, premature submit. The instructions are:

git clone https://github.com/planetscale/vitess-releases.git
cd vitess-releases/bin
./install_latest.sh

[PrismaPhonic]

Thanks @sougou, that worked out great!

This relates to the tests in Python. The build guides now no longer recommend running Python tests, and will be enhanced further in vitessio/website#372 .

Because we are also converting these tests to golang, it should be permanently fixed in the next few months. I am going to close this issue as 'Won't fix', but please feel free to re-open if you have further questions.
