Qian Xu created ARROW-66:
----------------------------
Summary: Maybe some missing steps in installation guide
Key: ARROW-66
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-66
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Python
Environment: CentOS 7.0
Reporter: Qian Xu
I followed [the
guide|https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/master/python/doc/INSTALL.md] to
install Arrow project from scratch. I met some issues.
1. First of all, I need to build the cpp part. So I setup the thirdparty
dependencies. But when I {{cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$ARROW_HOME ..}}, it
shows an error at {{get_filename_component}} with {{FindGTest.cmake}}. After
some digging, I noticed that I have to use *cmake 3* (instead of cmake 2).
2. Now I am able to install {{pyarrow}}. The installation went smooth. But when
I import the module {{pyarrow}}, it says {{ImportError: No module named
array}}. I haven't found any description on this error.
