Error while using aci-toolkit

chungewa — Tue, 28 Oct 2014 00:17:24 GMT

HI, Guys

I'm using Python2.7 and ACI SDK, and i can create Tenant into my APIC successfully.

But When i try to create Tenant from ACI-toolkit, i got the error：

Thanks for your sharing

Hi Jason,

It looks to me that you need to do a couple of things:

First,

from acitoolkit.acitoolkit import *

instead of

from acitoolkit import *

Second, check the spelling of credentials. You spell it as credentails ("a" and "i" are reversed). I do not know if that is intentional.

HI, Omar

Hello,

Here is some information in the samples/README.md

"Many of the samples in this directory use the file credentials.py to login to the APIC. Before running, edit the credentials.py with the username, password, and IP address for your environment."

So create a credentials.py file in the same directory as your code and have in it values for URL, LOGIN and PASSWORD as the credentials to access the APIC. Below is an example.

## credentials.py

URL="http://127.0.0.1"

PASSWORD="Cisco123"

Thanks Omar：

modify credentials.py and put under my python2.7 directory, that works.

I am having the same issue.. But it's not credential related..

$ python aci-doc.py

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "aci-doc.py", line 4, in <module>

import cobra.mit.access

ImportError: No module named cobra.mit.access

I've searched and I don't appear to have this module anywhere.. Does anyone know a location to download it from? I've seen it on "ReadTheDocs" website, but nothing official that I can find on Cisco.

Have you installed SDK Cobra egg files? Are you using Python 2.7 or 3?

Python 3 does not work. The whole thing works under Pyhton 2.7.

Following commands solved the problem:

pip2 uninstall more_itertools

pip2 install more_itertools==5.0.0

The Cobra SDK files are typically downloaded from a physical APIC appliance.
