Hi all I'm having difficulty installing

pipelinewise-tap-mysql

, have followed the custom plugin install guide but am getting the following when running

Copy code

meltano select --list pipelinewise-tap-mysql

Copy code

meltano.core.plugin_invoker.ExecutableNotFoundError: Executable 'pipelinewise-tap-mysql' could not be found. Extractor 'pipelinewise-tap-mysql' may not have been installed yet using `meltano install extractor pipelinewise-tap-mysql`, or the executable name may be incorrect.

The configuration exists in meltano.yml, and the virtualenv exists in .meltano/extractors. Any ideas?

I get the same when I try to run it:

Copy code

(.venv) ➜  demo-project meltano elt  pipelinewise-tap-mysql target-jsonl --job_id=mysql-test
meltano                | Running extract & load...
meltano                | No state was found, complete import.

I'm using pyenv to switch to Python 3.7.9 from my default 3.8.5, could that be problematic?

I can successfully run

meltano config pipelinewise-tap-mysql

and configure it that way.

If you explore the

.meltano

directory, you will find a virtual environment directory for each tap, including this one. Inside that venv's

bin

directory, there should be some executables. I assume you will find one that is named something different. Whatever you find should match the

executable

property in the tap's config in meltano.yml. What do you see?

@niall_woodward Your executable name is incorrect! As you can see under https://github.com/transferwise/pipelinewise-tap-mysql#sync-mode, the executable is named

tap-mysql

, even though the plugin itself is called

pipelinewise-tap-mysql

. If you change the

executable

property in

meltano.yml

, you should be good!
