NameError: name 'FileNotFoundError' is not defined about guiscrcpy HOT 8 CLOSED

@Strubbl, thanks for the info! Me too, I am neither a python expert, a grade 11 student.
So I learnt a bit today though :).

Seems like I have to update the README.md and reference this issue. Thanks 😊

Which is your default python version?
You can find out with python --version

your issue looks like it's python2

from guiscrcpy.

Yeah, Python2...

$ python --version
Python 2.7.16

from guiscrcpy.

guiscrcpy needs python3. I do not know if it can be required by the AUR package somehow.

$ cat /usr/bin/guiscrcpy 
#!/bin/bash
python /opt/guiscrcpy/__main__.py

So, if you have python3 installed and start guiscrcrpy with python3 /opt/guiscrcpy/__main__.py, it should work.

Thanks for your help! I had a Python2-Binary in my $PATH. Don't remember why, but I deleted it and rebuilt the program. It "works" now... in other words: it crashes, but with another error. I'll open another issue

from guiscrcpy.

Why does the binary file not work, even though you have python 2, python3 lib.so libraries are also embedded, so that you can run this anywhere.
(I) did you try 19.04 v or 18.04 v . Guiscrcpy is packaged to support older OSes (those released before Ubuntu 19.04) are released as 18.04, please check that. @logix2, gave an issue (Binary not working in Ubuntu)

(II) can you give the output while running binary?

@Strubbl, how did you understand it's a python2 output, hatsoff to your skills, I am a newbie :)

@Strubbl The second time I started guiscrcpy everything works. Will play with your tool for a while 👍

from guiscrcpy.

The binary file did not work, because it calls python only - no specific version. Due to the changed linuxundich's $PATH variable the python command pointed to a python2 binary.

Usually in a default Archlinux installation, python shall point to python3, e.g.:

$ type python
python is /usr/bin/python
$ ls -l /usr/bin/python
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Jul 16 09:12 /usr/bin/python -> python3*

I am no python expert, but i googled, and saw the FileNotFoundError was not part of python2.
