OpenEdx translations install downloads but fails to compile

shurafa 2019-04-07 09:19:58 UTC #1

I have a fresh app on GCP, the only thing I did is updating pip to 19.0.9. Python version is as is at 2.7. I have successfully installed django-debug-toolbar and django-debug-toolbar-mongo with no problems but that didn't resolve my issue. Translations are pulled successfully but fail to compile with this error:
ImportError: No module named debug_toolbar

I am following this documentation: https://docs.bitnami.com/google/apps/edx/configuration/change-language/

Problem with translation using Transifex - "ImportError: No module named w"

I was installing the pip against the wrong user. I figured this out after I gave up and started installing an xblock while I wait for an answer. In that documentation file, it described how to install xblock as pip as openedx user. That got me passed the above error.

I'm getting a different one:
Error Message: ValueError: invalid token in plural form: EXPRESSION

The new error appears to be a bug that is still affected by the OpenEdx version bitnami is using.
Current versions: Updating from edx-i18n-tools-0.4.5 & ora2-2.1.17 to edx-i18n-tools-0.4.6 & ora2-2.1.18 should fix the problem: packages can be updated using this command:

pip install git+https://github.com/edx/edx-ora2.git@2.1.18#egg=ora2==2.1.18

Source:
https://openedx.atlassian.net/browse/CRI-129?focusedCommentId=344970&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels%3Acomment-tabpanel

Then I got a different error but it appeared to be affecting a translation to language I didn't need (missing file in Hindi 'hi) so I just commented out that language in /opt/bitnami/apps/edx/edx-platform/conf/locale/config.yaml
