Missing Scroll_SSD1306 during testAll.py

I followed the readme.md to the letter, and have the same result after running them again:

Edit
-------------------------

I've gone so far as to re-flash the SD card (using raspbian 4-10-17 lite on a headless setup) and started over on the readme.md file on github, followed it to the letter, with the same results.



So still not working when following the guide. Thoughts? Should I not be doing this on the lite version of raspbian?

No worries I do that all the time!
However to be a further thorn in your side....

I an now returned with "No distributions at all found for pil"

Perhaps it's under a different name?



And the output from the log:


pi@planterpi:~/SDL_Pi_SmartPlantPi $ sudo su

root@planterpi:/home/pi/SDL_Pi_SmartPlantPi# cat /root/.pip/pip.log

I've also tried just sudo easy_install pillow which succeeds, but the testAll.py still errors out, and of course I'm not sure it's the right package being installed either.

Daniels, 

I think you need to install python-pil

sudo apt-get install python-pil

Thanks I'd love to get this up and running as I've been 3d printing up a storm since I got my printer, and would love to tie this in with a 3dponics setup, can't wait to see it all finally come together!

Also, I'm open to helping work through a fresh install step by step if John or anyone else would like to reproduce!

Hi

I just received my Smart Plant Pi Kit, so I set-up a new Raspberry Pi 3 to use it.
I follow all the steps, carefully, and here is what I'm getting when trying to start "sudo python testAll.py" :

pi@SmartPlantPi:~/SDL_Pi_SmartPlantPi 11:40 $ sudo python testAll.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "testAll.py", line 32, in <module>
import Scroll_SSD1306

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 240, in truetype

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/PIL/ImageFont.py", line 137, in __init__
self.font = core.getfont(font, size, index, encoding)
IOError: cannot open resource

Kernel : Linux SmartPlantPi 4.9.35-v7+ #1014 SMP Fri Jun 30 14:47:43 BST 2017 armv7l GNU/Linux

Any idea please ? Thanks

thanks for answer, but yes, I installed everything (so python-pip and python-pil are installed), as it is written in the readme from github.
