Well, post the details (service file, script) so others can help.
try:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /usr/bin/dash_sniffer.py
Wouldn't it be better to put the file in /etc/systemd/system
, rather than in /lib
? They are both used, but AFAIK the latter is intended for installed packages, rather than administrator additions.
- add
#! /usr/bin/python
to dash_sniffer.py
- chmod 777 dash_sniffer.py
chmod 777 chesus crust
We all had that one guy who pulled a sneaky chmod 777 -R / on the server, right?
