I am running Ubuntu. Python 2.7 installed. I run BBSLink.py it says Python
not detected (python error in mystic).

I CAN run the script from CL and it works fine so I guess I dont have my environment settings right.

Anyone know what I could be missing? I set PYTHONHOME and PYTHONPATH in /etc/environment but I guess I didnt get it right.

Thanks,

I don't know the answer to this, I did see a similar request in the Fidonet MYSTIC echo recently... I figure g00r00 may be able to comment about any
linux specific stuff related to Python setup.

Did you look at the Wiki and see the notes there?

I did, Avon. I did see it saying you needed two variables, which I tried, but it was vague information and I wasn't able to get I working.

I am running Ubuntu. Python 2.7 installed. I run BBSLink.py it says
Python not detected (python error in mystic).

Can you run "python --version" from a terminal to see if it says "Python 2.7" and then also take a look at the output of this command:

ldconfig -p | grep libpython

You should see a "libpython2.7.so.1.0" as a result. If you don't, we may
have to create a symlink to whatever file you have installed

--- Mystic BBS v1.12 A34 (Windows/64)
* Origin: Sector 7 [Mystic BBS WHQ] (21:1/108)

It shows version 2.7.12


The other command shows /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.5m.so.1.0


Someting seems wrong...

g00r00

I now have it giving this on output:

python --version = Python 2.7.12

ldconfig command = libpython2.7_dso.1.0 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7_d.sp.1.0

It also has a few more, all now are python 2.7 links.

I think my python is correct. I AM able to run BBSLink from the command line using Python. However, I now DO NOT get an error saying python not detected, but it will not run the python command line (which is correct.)It just
returns with no errors.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Well,

I got it working, BBSLink that is, using the BASH script. Python worked
always from the command line, but i never got it to work in Mystic.

I was able to get MRC working, python and all, in Mystic and command line. So my python is working. I completely re-istalled.

I still think something isnt right with Python and Linux/Mystic though.

Does it have to one I mentioned? It has to be exact otherwise you'll need to make a symolic link of your library to "libpython2.7.so.1.0"

Please see my last message to you with instructions to see if its not
installed correctly. From what I am seeing its not.

g00r00,

Thanks for the help.

I was able to get BBSLink working, but I never got Python module to work. I got it working but using the BASH script. I could connect using the command line and python but never through mystic. Not sure why. I re-installed all of python,
and to answer your question, I did end up with the exact files i needed.

I did not get the python error from mystic anymore. BBSLink never worked though from python.

I know python worked, as I got MRC working through Mystic and python as well.

But, at last, I was never able to call the python script, inside Mystic, and connect
to the BBSLink server. Worked fine using bash.

Not sure why.

Thanks,
