Errno 13

[toughbunny]

Hi,

I installed snoopy on a web-based vm on koding.com, which is both 64-bit and not the recommended version of ubuntu (13), so I knew that this would lead to problems. However, since the install, I am not able to do much with the menus because it keeps aborting my commands with errno 13 permission denied, including just starting the server on managing drone configuration packs.

Thanks!

Hi,

Here is an update with pictures. I forgot to add that when I use sudo, I just get a blank screen like in the last picture.

It looks like the file permissions/ownership on the file ./bin/wigle_credentials.txt do not allow you to write to it.

Thanks,
But now I have another problem. I fixed the permissions for the two files, wigle_creds and openvpn-status.log files, and all the other files in the /home/woodstock/snoopy/server/bin directory. Now when I type snoopy, I just get a blank screen like in the last picture.

Thanks!

Sorry,

I forgot to add that when I scroll up from the blank screen, I see the following error:

^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "bin/vpn_drones.py", line 14, in
line=f.readline()
KeyboardInterrupt

*** Ouch! Exiting ***

Sorry again,

This time I left the command running for longer before interrupting and got:

^CTraceback (most recent call last):
File "bin/vpn_drones.py", line 13, in
while ( not re.search('^Common.*',line)):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/re.py", line 142, in search
return _compile(pattern, flags).search(string)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/re.py", line 229, in _compile
p = _cache.get(cachekey)
KeyboardInterrupt

*** Ouch! Exiting ***

Thanks Again

Just don't use koding. Try it on a digitalocean droplet with at leat 1gb of ram and see if the problems persist.

Hi,

Thanks Matznerd, but koding is free and you have to pay for digitalocean. Also, there has to be some traceable error here. I would like to keep on trying with koding.

Thanks!

Hi, I just wanted to say that I've isolated the problem. When I don't give read permissions to /etc/openvpn/openvpn-status.log, the the command to start snoopy server components from the server menu, it stops the server right after with a permissions denied error. But when I do give read permissions, the command snoopy just returns a blank screen.

Thanks!
