Good day all,

I did an update using bench update and I got many times the following:
“unable to make thumbnail for …”

Any idea on what I am missing?

Check your pillow installation, as described in the announce here: New python dependency - Pillow. If you get error during update, see this post - #7 by anand

Hope this will help. :slight_smile:

If you launch your bench-python, are you able to use pillow?

Something like:

$ ./env/bin/python -c 'from PIL import Image, ImageOps'
5

I tried but I get

fraxxx@Capfresh:~$ bench-python
bench-python: command not found
6

OK, so, try this in 2 commands:

 bench shell

and after:

python -c 'from PIL import Image, ImageOps'

Hi NoumirPoutipou,
Thanks again for your help.
Is it suppose to do something?

I’m getting not much:

fraxxx@Capfresh:~$ bench shell
fraxxx@Capfresh:~/frappe-bench/sites$ python -c 'from PIL import Image, ImageOps'
fraxxx@Capfresh:~/frappe-bench/sites$

@Francois_Ifitwala @NoumirPoutipou the message is most likely because you have links to those files in your Item but they don’t exist in your file system.
