i wanted to run this
"cygrunsrv --install varnishd --path /cygdrive/c/cygwin64/usr/sbin/varnishd.exe"
on windows server 2016 but i am getting.
"-bash: cygrunsrv: command not found. "
Not sure if file is required. But if so please send me the executable as well
You need to install cygrunsrv. You will find it under the "Admin" category in the Cygwin setup utility.
I've recently installed backup manager onto my ubuntu machine to have automated backup going. The problem is when I go to set up the automatization using this code -
it comes us up saying this "bash: /etc/backup-manager.sh: Permission denied"
I do not understand this error. I've tried change the user who read/writes to someone other than root and that didn't work. I tried changed the chmod number from 770 to 700 and still didn't work.
any info on this is welcome. Thank you to those who help :)
those wondering I am using this tutorial giving to me by the host. https://documentation.online.net/en/dedicated-server/tutorials/backup/configure-backup/start
I'm using the desktop version of ubuntu 16 incase that is needed
The sudo doesn't do what you want in this case. What happens is that the shell evaluates the redirection and attempts to open the /etc/backup-manager.sh for you before the sudo cat even gets started. That fails because the shell still runs as you unprivileged user. You have to say sudo -i to open a new root shell, execute the commands and exit again.
Alternatively you could try sudo nano /etc/backup-manager.sh and paste the contents there. This would work because the editor is run as root and does the file opening itself when you save.
I'm trying to install the Touchmouse server for Linux. The software is a perl script that I have tried to run via terminal, using the perl command. The software I'm trying to run is here: https://github.com/mycroes/touchmoused
This is the output from terminal:
:~/Desktop/touchmoused-master$ perl touchmoused
Can't open /dev/uinput: Permission denied at touchmoused line 242.
:~/Desktop/touchmoused-master$ Established under name '<name of computer>'
I am new to Linux but have some experience with Terminal.
Thanks!
From the creator of the script:
Just download it, chmod +x and run it (as root, it needs access to /dev/uinput and it wants to register with avahi).
Regards,

Your user won't have permissions for /dev/uinput, also check that /dev/uinput is the correct location for your distribution, the script allows you to override this with the -device flag.
So either make it executable so you don't have to enter 'perl' and then run with sudo or have root run it on startup.
I've tested code that requires root access in pyCharm by running sudo pycharm.sh but this is not the way I would recommend of doing so.
I know it's possible to debug with sudo privileges by running the python interpreter as sudo in pyCharm but how do we do this?
Create a shell script that does "sudo python" and forwards the arguments, and configure that script as a Python interpreter in PyCharm.
Name of this shell script should start with python (source: http://forum.jetbrains.com/message/PyCharm-424-3).
In PyCharm new version, it has a configure to run Python interpreter in root, no need workaround. See picture below. Check to checkbox: Execute code using this interpreter with root privileges via sudo
For what it's worth, I've managed run a python script with sudo priviledges (on Ubuntu 16.04) like this:
In the very first line in the script, define the interpreter like this:
#!/usr/bin/sudo python
Make the script executable:
chmod +x myscript.py
Run the script directly, without specifying the python interpreter yourself:
./myscript.py
The script will ask for sudo password and continue running with elevated priviledges.
I solved this problem by copying /usr/bin/python3 in my home, then setting cap_net_bind_service capability:
cp /usr/bin/python3 ~/python35-setcap
sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' ~/python35-setcap
And then using ~/python35-setcap as python interpreter in pycharm.
This way, you can bind lower ports, but not any python 3 program can do it, and pycharm can still kill your script. You could also restrict execute permission to yourself if you want more security.
I have encountered the same problem trying to debug Bluetooth related code on a Raspberry Pi. I suppose, since you're doing remote debug on the device, that the device is for development use only. In such a case, in my humble option, you should permit ssh root login, so you can configure PyCharm to use the root user and you don't need to sudo. That's the solution I have chosen.
The following instructions are for a Raspberry Pi, but the procedure is the same for any Linux distribution:
First of all, add your public key to the authorized_keys:
cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub | ssh pi#raspberrypi "mkdir -p ~/.ssh && cat >>
~/.ssh/authorized_keys"
Then login into the Raspberry Pi:
ssh pi#raspberrypi
Once you have a console copy your key into the root directory:
sudo mkdir /root/.ssh
sudo cp authorized_keys /root/.ssh/
Finally edit sshd_config adding PermitRootLogin without-password:
sudo vim /etc/ssh/sshd_config
Use your preferred editor.
Now you are able to ssh inside the Raspberry Pi as root:
ssh root#raspberrypi
Using root instead or pi user, give you the ability to run your code, even remotely, with root privileges, as
required by BlueZ.
I have encounter another way to solve this issue so I thought to share it (this answer is more like an alternative for the other answers).
It is worth to mention here that this solution "attacks" the problem by running only a certain Python script (within the pPyCharm IDE) in root mode , and not the entire PyCharm application.
1) Disable requiring password for running Python:
This will be achieved by editing the /etc/sudoers.d/python file. What we need to do is to add an entry in that file as follows:
user host = (root) NOPASSWD: full_path_to_python, for example:
guya ubuntu = (root) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/python
NOTES:
user can be detected by the command: whoami
host can be detected by the command: hostname
2) Create a "sudo script": The purpose of this script is to give Python privilege to run as root user.
Create a script called python-sudo.sh , and add the following into it:
#!/bin/bash
sudo /usr/bin/python "$#"
Note again that the path is the path to your Python as the previous phase.
Also, this path is the path to Python2 on the system.
Don't forget to give execution permissions to this script using the command: chmod
chmod +x python-sudo.sh
3) Use the python-sudo.sh script as your PyCharm interpreter:
Within PyCharm go to: File --> Settings --> Project interpreter
At the right top hand side click the "setting" icon, and click "Add local".
In the browser option choose the python-sudo.sh script we have created previously. This will give PyCharm the privilege to run a Python script as root.
4) Debug the test: All there is left to do is actually debug the specific Python script in the PyCharm IDE. This can be done easily via Right-click on the script to debug --> hit Debug sample_script_to_debug.py
For those looking for a cleaner solution and don't mind entering a password each time.
Go to your Run Configuration > Edit Configurations
Under 'Execution', check the Emulate terminal in output console option.
This will allow you to debug a Python script while maintaining your current user and giving elevated sudo privileges to the script when it's needed. It also makes it easier to maintain different virtual environments if you work across multiple projects.
Terminal:
sudo ./Pycharm
this way you can start PyCharm as SuperUser
I follow the instructions here and success. But there is a problem that the PYTHONPATH is not valid when you use sudo. So when you edit with
sudo visudo -f /etc/sudoers.d/python
add that:
user host = (root) NOPASSWD:SETENV: /home/yizhao/anaconda3/bin/python
also your script should be:
#! /bin/bash
sudo PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH /home/name/anaconda3/bin/python "$#"
Similar to what #Richard pointed out, the answer posted here worked for me
sudo /Applications/PyCharm.app/Contents/MacOS/pycharm on MacOS
Every thing is okay (Opengts dir & tomcat dir have permission 777) but i am getting this error again & again, why--
executing # sudo ant all then i get this error
BUILD FAILED
/usr/local/OpenGTS_2.4.5/build.xml:111: CATALINA_HOME environment variable has not been defined.
(make sure CATALINA_HOME is defined and exported to the list of environment variables)
I got the this msg when starting the tomcat
sudo ./startup.sh
Using CATALINA_BASE: /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36
Using CATALINA_HOME: /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36
Using CATALINA_TMPDIR: /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36/temp
Using JRE_HOME: /usr
Using CLASSPATH: /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36/bin/bootstrap.jar
Any one have the solution please tell me how to fix this error.
Try to configure OpenGTS in your home directory (rather than /usr/local/).
And use ant all command (not sudo ant all).
Good Lock.. :)
First run this command:
echo $CATALINA_HOME
It should give you the path to your tomcat directory, which I'm assuming is /usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36, but if you see a different path, or if the response is blank, try running this command:
export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/local/apache-tomcat-6.0.36
If you read the OpenGTS Configuration Manual, it talks about the CATALINA_HOME environment variable for Linux in section 2.4a. There are other environment variables too that you must set to install OpenGTS successfully (All mentioned in the manual).
To solve this problem, ensure the OpenGTS2.6.x has all files and directories to user:group same as logged in user. then run / ant all command
Please note that "sudo ant all" doesn't work.
Use this command to change ownership of OpenGTS files/dir
/usr/local/OpenGTS2.6.2> cd ..
sudo chown -R ranjan:ranjan OpenGTS2.6.2
change ranjan to your username: group name
/usr/local/OpenGTS2.6.2> ant all
It will work.
Try to install tomcat7 rather than tomcat6 via command line
apt-get update
apt-get install tomcat7
Configure CATALINA_HOME by
export CATALINA_HOME=/usr/share/tomcat7
