There are similar themed questions for other platforms, but the solutions out there do not work for me.

(e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11336153/python-gdal-package-missing-header-file-when-installing-via-pip)

I am using a virtualenv to have a user-space implementation of python on a RHEL GNU/Linux server.

I have installed lots of favourite packages into my local python directory with little problem, using pip.

pip install gdal, on the other hand, fails, with many missing header file errors.

I have tried

pip install --no-install gdal

followed by navigating to (my python path)/build/GDAL and then

python setup.py build_ext --include-dirs=/usr/include/gdal

but that fails with lots of other errors:

I've also tried editing setup.cfg to put

gdal_config =/usr/bin/gdal-config near the top, and then running pip install --no-download GDAL

but that failed as well, with the original header file failures:

Edit: btw, I think I got my sysadmin to instal gdal-devel successfully:

Can anyone give me advice on how to install the python GDAL package(s) into my virtualenv on RHEL?

My guess is that the gdal-dev version you have is outdated and that the version of python binding you got in pip is not compatible any more. I accidentally uninstalled python-gdal from RHEL, and unsuccessfully tried to install gdal with pip today. The first error I got was

extensions/gdal_wrap.cpp:3373: error: ‘CPLGetErrorHandlerUserData’ was not declared in this scope extensions/gdal_wrap.cpp: In function ‘CPLErr PushErrorHandler(void (*)(CPLErr, int, const char*), void*)’: 

which is the same you got near the beginning. I downloaded gdal v1.10.1 source today, and I grepped CPLGetErrorHanlerUserData, and found it in include/cpl_error.h, and not in the file in version 1.8.1 I had. After I compiled gdal 1.10.1, installed it and rerun pip install gdal. It gave a bit of warning but installed successfully.

  • Similar solution here: installed gdal-dev via apt-get. Afterwards pip install gdal failed with a similar message. apt-get installed version 1.11.something. After manually installing gdal library version 2.0.1 from source pip install gdal succeeded Commented Nov 4, 2015 at 10:11

are you sure that you have installed the development files for gdal on your system, i.e. gdal-devel? If not, run yum install gdal-devel and then try to run pip install osgeo in your virtualenv.

Edit:

Based on my comment below, I replicated the steps from the link below on Debian.

  1. Create the virtual env

    virtualenv gdalenv

  2. Activate the virtualenv

    source bin/activate

  3. Download GDAL without installing

    pip install --no-install GDAL

  4. Change directory

    cd build/GDAL

  5. Run setup.py with user specific settings (n.b. edit paths as required)

    python setup.py build_ext --gdal-config=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config --include-dirs=/usr/local/include/ --library-dirs=/usr/local/lib/

  6. Run installation

    pip install --no-download GDAL

  7. check the version and installation location:

    >>>from osgeo import gdal

    gdal.__file__

    /home/dmci/gdalenv/lib/python2.6/site-packages/osgeo/gdal.pyc

I hope that the above helps, I suspect you may need to double check the paths to the include and headers during the configuration.

  • Thanks. I edited my question to mention that gdal-devel is there. I tried "pip install osgeo" but get: Downloading/unpacking osgeo Could not find any downloads that satisfy the requirement osgeo No distributions at all found for osgeo Commented Oct 22, 2013 at 12:14
  • This is quite a clear and complete set of installation instructions: linfiniti.com/2013/02/… Commented Oct 22, 2013 at 12:19
  • Thanks. That does not seem clear to me. This is very much tailored to Mac/OSX. I'm on RHEL GNU. He says "Note that I assume you have Williams frameworks and xcode / compilation toolchain in place." and he includes things that are not on my system. "locate GDAL.framework" gives me nothing. Williams' site is for OSX. Commented Oct 22, 2013 at 17:59
  • Thanks for the edits. I do not know what to put in that setup line; sorry! My best guess is this: "python setup.py build_ext --gdal-config=/usr/bin/gdal-config --include-dirs=/usr/include/ --library-dirs=/usr/lib64/" but that doesn't work. I've tried using "locate" to find out where things might be, but I'm asking for help with the RHEL6 case, since I do not know how to find out. My first error with this revision is "extensions/gdal_wrap.cpp:2853:22: error: cpl_port.h: No such file or directory ". "locate" says that it exists here: /usr/include/gdal/cpl_port.h Commented Oct 27, 2013 at 16:55
  • If locate says that it exists in /usr/include/gdal/ then you should update your setup command as follows: python setup.py --gdal-config=/usr/bin/gdal-config --include-dirs=/usr/include/gdal --library-dirs=/.... hope that solves it? Commented Oct 28, 2013 at 9:02
