Python and Protobuf Knime Configuration Linux

KNIME Analytics Platform

Hi All, 

I'm trying to get Python to work in Knime on a RHEL box and confronted with "Library google.protobuf is missing, required minimum version is 2.5.0". I've downloded the latest version from https://github.com/google/protobuf and followed the instructions for configuration and installation but can't get it to work. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue ? 

Thanks

I did the same thing and was confused when it didn't work.  For Ubuntu, opening Software Center and installing python-protobuf fixed it.

Great. Thank you. Unfortunately can't get it to work on RHEL.

We have it running on CentOS 6. Try installing protobuf via pip.
