Issue setting up WebOOT on SL5 #129

Description

@brisbane

Hi,

I am trying to use webOOT. I wonder if you can shed some light on how I might have mis-configured my environment and software versions.

I have the latest version of python-magic and am using it with root-5.34.09 compiled with gcc4.3 and with Python2.7.2.

I have tried this with the system version of ImageMagic (6.2.8) and ImageMagick-6.8.6.

When I run weboot, I get the following issue:

When I navigate to the /browse URL, I get the error:

AttributeError: Magic instance has no attribute 'exit'
The other errors are attached.

I am running on Scientific Linux 5. I have access to SL6, and to afs space. If you have a shell script you use to start weboot and set up the paths that would already be incredibly helpful. I can add a pull request with further setup instructions for externals, once I have them, if that would be helpful.

Thanks,
Sean

I have previously emailed Peter Waller who suggests the following hint:

confusingly, there is imagemagick and in addition there is python-magic [1] which is a package for using libmagic, which does mimetype recognition by peeking inside files.
