Error when running update.py -players about fflproject HOT 9 CLOSED

What is the PLAYER_UPDATE_CMD set to in ./python/config.py ?

For troubleshooting, add this prior to the subprocess.call on line 270 in ./python/update.py
print c.PLAYER_UPDATE_CMD

Then run it and see what command is outputted, you should be able to paste that command and run it without errors, if you still get a permissions error it's something outside of fflproject code.

from fflproject.

PLAYER_UPDATE_CMD is appropriately set to ./python2.7/dist-packages/nflgame/update_players.py

When I run this command on its own, it updates all NFL Rosters and checks for any missing players with no errors (after fixing the JR issue with Charles Leno Jr)

I have checked subprocess.py and checked its permissions and they are set to 755.

from fflproject.

Try creating a new file ex: test.py with the following contents:

import subprocess

cmd = './python2.7/dist-packages/nflgame/update_players.py'
subprocess.call(cmd.split(' '))

If you run that, do you get the same error?

from fflproject.

Yes I got the exact same error.

from fflproject.

It must be an issue with the server config or permissions rather than fflproject code. Do you have SELinux enforcing? Are you running python in a virtualenv?

Maybe you could try an even simpler test:

import subprocess

cmd = 'ls'
subprocess.call(cmd.split(' '))

from fflproject.

This is what I got when I ran what you suggested.

from fflproject.

This still seems like a permissions issue on your system. You get the same permission error with the python script that just calls update_players.py so I'm going to close this as it's not really an issue with fflproject.

Two things you could try:

• In my config.py, I use /usr/bin/nflgame-update-players that gets installed with nflgame, you might try that rather than directly calling the python file.

• Or explicitly specify the path to python in your cmd: /usr/bin/python

After much more sifting through the internet and looking at BurntSushi's nflgame GitHub, I found the I needed to set the PLAYER_UPDATE_CMD needed to be set to : /usr/local/bin/nflgame-update-players

Was just a matter of figuring out where everything was installed I guess, thanks for the help!

Yeah in Deb7 it is /usr/local/bin/nflgame-update-players by default for me also.
