Nothing?

So the operation not permitted doesn't come and it simply goes to the next line?

Then it means the chmod has been done successfully...

Exactly.

I'd love to believe it, but
Code:
{script:python /home/user/uptime.py}
shows nothing on my standby screen...

What I did:

Copied the script to /home/user
chmod 775 /home/user/uptime.py
{scriptython /home/user/uptime.py} added this as the 4th line in Billboard

Result:



Just so that you believe:

Code:
RM696-21-3_PR_005:~# python /home/user/uptime.py
2:53

Of course I believe YOU, I just don't believe I did it the correct way.
Might it be that the python-script has to be coded in UTF8 instead of ANSI?
Sorry, I have no coding skills, I just followed these instructions and copy/pasted that code.

Sorry if I sounded rude

Download from http://db.tt/f63qw6Ve and save it to /home/user/

It could be that your line endings are Windows not Unix?


P.S. My coding skills (if you could call them so) are no better than anyone here, so don't fret

Thanks for your file, it is actually 3 Bytes smaller than the one I produced on my Win-machine. So probably yes, the line endings...

But no success. So I chmod +x'ed it again, but still no success.
I'm lost...

I'm not sure maybe do a chmod 775 like i did instead of just a chmod +x...

The 3bytes are what Windows adds on hence its line endings for sure...

Still struggling with the python-script for uptime here.
My desktop is a Win7 and I used notepad++ for creating this script
Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
import datetime
seconds = int(float(open('/proc/uptime').read().split()[0]))
print str(datetime.timedelta(0, seconds))[:-3]
Coding was set to ANSI and I simply saved as python. Then copied it to /home/user, became root and tried
Code:
chmod +x /home/user/uptime.py
But got "operation not permitted". Where did I fail?
Try without became root user, if you modified files in /home/user/, the owner of those files is user no root user.
