"[Errno 30] Read-only file system " Error When Deploying to DO Functions via Python

Hi,

I am trying to deploy my python scripts which involve externally installed python packages to Digital Ocean Functions, however, I get the following error every time during the deployment process

Installing collected packages: psycopg2, numpy, pandas ERROR: Could not install packages due to an OSError: [Errno 30] Read-only file system: ‘/usr/local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/psycopg2’

Here are how my scripts and folders are structured:

cryptometrics

  • packages
    • sentiment
      • summary
        • __ main __.py
        • build.sh
        • requirements.txt
  • project.yml

My project.yml script is as follow:

packages:
  - name: sentiment
    actions:
      - name: summary
        runtime: 'python:default'

The requirements.txt file contains all Python packages that need to be installed:

pandas==1.4.2
psycopg2==2.9.3

The build.sh file contains instructions to install packages during the remote build process during deployment

#!/bin/bash
set -e
virtualenv virtualenv
source virtualenv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
deactivate

This error would pop up after running the following command for a while:

doctl serverless deploy cryptometrics --remote-build

Does anyone here face this problem before?

Hi there,

I’ve just tried this with the following sample function:

https://github.com/digitalocean/sample-functions-python-sendgrid-email

The sample function has the same instruction as the one that you’ve described, however it seems to be working as expected.

What I could suggest is, if you have the cryptometrics already deployed, try to deleted it and redeploy it again with the command that you’ve provided.

Let me know how it goes!

Best,

Bobby
