You need to do two things: the script file's mode must be executable and the first line must begin with #! followed by the path of the Python interpreter. The second can be done in a number of ways. The most straightforward way is to write #!/usr/local/bin/python as the very first line of your file, using the pathname for where the Python interpreter is installed on your platform.

On Windows 2000, the standard Python installer already associates the .py extension with a file type (Python.File) and gives that file type an open command that runs the interpreter (D:\Program Files\Python\python.exe "%1" %*). This is enough to make scripts executable from the command prompt as 'foo.py'. If you'd rather be able to execute the script by simple typing 'foo' with no extension you need to add .py to the PATHEXT environment variable.

First, make extra-super sure that you are using the script or module in the way it was intended. Many of us are quick to blame the module, the operating system, or the interpreter when, in reality, it is our own code that isn't working right. If you're sure that it's not a problem in your code, the best way to make a UNIX-based script work is to desk-check it before running it. Look for some of the following things: Calls to functions unimplemented in ActivePerl.

The answer is to just use unzip/winzip/winrar/whatever to decompress the executable, treating it like a normal Zip file. You may need to rename the executable into a .zip extension first.

Is the actual syntax in the script correct? One thing you can do is log in to your account's shell, and execute your script with the Perl interpreter like this: Perl will then list all errors found on the script. Also, if you execute the script in the following way: and the shell responds with a "file not found" message, it means the script's path to Perl is wrong, or the script was uploaded in binary mode and not ASCII mode. First, to call a CGI through SSI, your page must have either an .

Here's a very simple interactive mail sender that uses it. This method will work on any host that supports an SMTP listener. import sys, smtplib fromaddr = raw_input("From: ") toaddrs = raw_input("To: ").split(',') print "Enter message, end with ^D:" msg = '' while 1: line = sys.stdin.readline() if not line: break msg = msg + line # The actual mail send server = smtplib.SMTP('localhost') server.sendmail(fromaddr, toaddrs, msg) server.

We sell and license to a tool called REBOL/Encap that will compress, encrypt, and encapsulate your scripts (plus any data and images too) into a single executable file. This tool is fast and easy to use (runs without a GUI, like a compiler). For more information, contact us.

If you are running script files rather than directly running executables under UNIX, you should ensure that your script files do the following: Each script should launch only a single executable. (It may launch multiple executables, but only the required one will be monitored by AppCenter.) If I create a Virtual Computer then it seems that the virtual computer is always talking to the first Agent in the list of agents of this computer (usually _SYSTEM).

I'd like to know the best way for implementing a graph editor which must be consistent with the Prolog internal representation How do I attach hidden information to a device object? I'd like to keep related information in a self-contained package.

A CGI needs to be made executable before it can be used by a website/webserver. On your account's shell (by using telnet), apply the command "chmod 755 cgi_name", where cgi_name is the name of the CGI program file. You can also do this if you are using an FTP program like CuteFTP by just right-clicking on the filename.

In the Webmin Users module, click on the user that you want to symchronize with Unix and set his Password option to Unix Authentication. If PAM is not used on your operating system, the first two steps can be skipped. Webmin will instead read the /etc/passwd or /etc/shadow file directly to authenticate users who are using the Unix Authentication password mode.

You can use the polaris executable directly by using the executable found in: /home/yara/re/mv/Master/bin/sparc-sun-solaris2.6. Make sure that you then change your POLARIS_ROOT to /home/yara/re/mv/Master and update your PATH variable so that the correct executable is chosen.

Solution: If your program is an applet compressed in a JAR file, there is only one change you need to make. Normally when you run an applet, your html file would have the following: <applet code=TheApplet.class width=200 height=200> </applet> For a JAR file, you simply have to add an additional archive parameter: <applet code=TheApplet.class archive="applets/TheApplet.

There are two general strategies: you can write a script file and use the interpreter, or you can compile an object that has a main method. To make a script file, simply put Scala code into a file and make the file executable. See the scala(1) reference page for details and examples. To use a main method, you must include in your Scala code an object with a main method.

The result of running make is normally not the executable proper, but a script that is created by libtool. That script does the shared-library magic needed to run the executable in-place. To actually debug the executable in-place, you need additional magic: libtool --mode=execute gdb ./yourapp

If you have the source you can easily add a statement early in main to enable the dumpable flag. #include <sys/prctl.h> ... /* The last three arguments are just padding, because the * system call requires five arguments. */ prctl(PR_SET_DUMPABLE,1,42,42,42); If anybody know a clean and secure way to get core dumps from suid executables without a recompile please tell me about it.

First of all you have to make sure you really need a script. Scripting is not difficult but if you simply want to auto-op your friends on your IRC channel, or if you want to ban or ignore an annoying person, mIRC is perfectly equipped already with functions that do exactly what you want. In this case read the section about the auto-op, protect and ignore lists.

Certainly, Plan-B technology is based on Java and HTML. As long as you generate HTML pages that can embed the <OBJECT>-tag and the <EMBED>-tag, you can generate your pages with the scripting language you desire.

Even though there are Python compilers being developed, you probably don't need a real compiler, if all you want is a stand-alone program. There are three solutions to that. One is to use the freeze tool, which is included in the Python source tree as Tools/freeze. It converts Python byte code to C arrays. Using a C compiler, you can embed all your modules into a new program, which is then linked with the standard Python modules.

The module cth_interim03 sets CTHPATH indeed, but mpirun.lsf does not carry the environment over to the compute nodes while spanning the multi-node job causing CTHPATH and other varibels set by setenv and modules in bsub script undefined. To force mpirun.lsf carry the whole environment over to the compute nodes use "--gm-copy-env" flag as below: mpirun.

Lists are arrays in the C or Pascal sense of the word (see question 6.16). The array module also provides methods for creating arrays of fixed types with compact representations (but they are slower to index than lists). Also note that the Numerics extensions and others define array-like structures with various characteristics as well.

This is a side effect of dynamic linking on (some?) Unix systems. It appears often on Linux with the Mesa libraries at least. The solution is to make sure your Mesa libraries are linked with the Xt library. One way to do this is to add "-lXt" to MESA_LIB in your user.make file.

Python is an interpreted, interactive, object-oriented programming language. It is often compared to Tcl, Perl, Scheme or Java. Python combines remarkable power with very clear syntax. It features modules, classes, exceptions, very high level data types, and dynamic typing. Ciranova uses Python as an extension language for our layout APIs.
