Hi All, Working through the ELT Walkthrough and I've stalled out installing Superset. Running Windows 11 Meltano installed under admin priv with pipx install meltano (venv) PS C:\..\my-meltano-project> meltano --version meltano, version 3.3.1 (venv) PS C:\..\my-meltano-project> python --version Python 3.9.13 The install throws a couple of warnings then fails with 'unicodeescape' error. I've seen a few other posts with this error but no resolution. Can anyone provide guidance?

(venv) PS C:\..\my-meltano-project> meltano add utility superset

Hi @Chris Jones! Can run that with

--log-level=debug

and share the traceback? I suspect this is similar to https://github.com/meltano/meltano/issues/8377 and may be preventing the actual installation error from being displayed.

dumb question but: meltano add utility superset --log-level=debug errors with Error: No such option: --log-level Where is the log level param placed in the command?

Oh, you wanna put it right after meltano, so

meltano --log-level=debug ...

Attaching the full log/traceback. Thanks!

Thanks for sharing that! I can confirm that https://github.com/meltano/meltano/pull/8436 should fix it. I'll try to cut a release later today 🙂

Great - thanks so much and really appreciate the quick response.

Np! 3.3.2 is out on PyPI so you should be able to upgrade if you installed with pip/pipx.

Progressed to a new error.

Progress! Can you try updating the

pip_url

value in

meltano.yml

for the superset plugin to have

apache-superset==3.1.1

?
