[Django]-Running Python file from Django views

3👍

✅

As you’re trying to run python script, you may simply import code from launch_instances.py into your view, redirect output to /home/bitnami/launcinstances.log (about redirecting stdout to file in python: Redirect stdout to a file in Python?). But there’s still problem with root privileges – one option is to change permissions of: resources needed for calling code from launch_instances.py; your log file; to allow your django process to execute that, second option (not recommended) is to run django app as root.

Most likely it has something to do with permissions. Try examining stderr and stdout of your command execution. I’m using this code to debug my shell commands:

process = subprocess.Popen(shlex.split(command), stdin=subprocess.PIPE, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
        output,error = process.communicate(input=pipe)
