No SConstruct file found

[andykog]

When i tried “platformio run" i got error:

MacBook-Pro-Andrey-2:timsp430-native-blink ak$ platformio run
Processing launchpad_msp430g2 environment:
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

So i made changes in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/platformio/util.py :

- p = Popen(args, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, shell=use_shell)
+ p = Popen(args, stdout=PIPE, stderr=PIPE, shell=True)

Then i got:

Processing launchpad_msp430g2 environment:

-Q: scons: command not found

So I made pip install --egg scons
Now the error is:

MacBook-Pro-Andrey-2:timsp430-native-blink ak$ platformio run
Processing launchpad_msp430g2 environment:

scons: *** No SConstruct file found.
File "/usr/local/lib/scons-2.3.0/SCons/Script/Main.py", line 905, in _main

But I have no idea where to get this file…

In the first report you have used Mac OS. Which is a type of "vetal-VirtualBox" OS?

Ok, let's begin with VirtualEnv:

# install or update if it exists
$ pip install -U virtualenv

# create Python-based temporary environment
$ virtualenv piodevenv

# activate it
$ source piodevenv/bin/activate

$ curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivankravets/platformio/develop/scripts/get-platformio.py | python

$ platformio --help

Hey, that seems to work!
I've used the same macbook pro with OSX Yosemite beta. Computer name being changed when I'm connecting internet at work, not sure why.
I forget that I used: pip install platformio, not your script, it seems that's the point.
Thank you a lot!

1. Does it work outside VirtualEnv? Can you use PlatformIO without "$ source .../bin/active"?
2. Here are installation steps http://docs.platformio.ikravets.com/en/latest/installation.html

[andykog]

Yes, after doing:

$ pip uninstall platformio
$ curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ivankravets/platformio/develop/scripts/get-platformio.py | python

Nice to hear it :)

Thanks a lot!
