• Mystic Python not running

    From Black Panther@21:1/186 to All on Monday, March 20, 2017 22:18:00
    Hi All,

    I have been fighting with trying to get Python to run through Mystic, and
    have not been able to do it. I have Python 2.7.13 installed and running on my Win10 system. I can run Python scripts from a command prompt with no problems.

    When I try to run a Mystic Python script, I get the error stating that Mystic cannot find Python on the system. "Python not detected, press a key"

    I have followed the information on the wiki.mysticbbs.com page.

    PYTHONHOME is set to c:\python27
    PYTHONPATH is set to c:\python27\lib
    PATH is set for c:\python27;c:\python27\lib;c:\python17\scripts

    Yes, Python is installed to c:\python27.

    I'm not sure what I'm missing. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    Do you have the PATH set Dan?

    Yes, I checked the path through Windows, and c:\python27;c:\python\lib;c:\python27\scripts are all listed in the path statement.

    I even restarted the Mystic server, so that it could check for the
    installation and it didn't work. I also have the python27.dll file copied
    into the Mystic directory.

    My Windows path only has C:\PYTHON27 on it as far as Python stuff goes, not sure if it matters as I never had any issues with MPS on Windows.

    At the prompt if I...
    echo %pythonhome%
    C:\PYTHON27

    echo %pythonpath%
    C:\PYTHON27\LIB

    Have you checked via echo to see that they are indeed being seen by your
    system as such?

    Also, would you mind sharing the MPS? I've been trying to recreate the error here and had no luck.

    And lastly as it's Windows, I have to ask... did you reboot?

    Did you copy the dll? Or move the dll? You don't actually need to do
    anything with the dll and should leave it where it was installed.

    I renamed my dll and got the exact same error you're describing. So my guess would be that you just need to reduce down to one, and in it's original installation location.

    My Windows path only has C:\PYTHON27 on it as far as Python stuff goes, not sure if it matters as I never had any issues with MPS on Windows.

    It started as just c:\python27, I've been adding, in hopes of that being an issue.

    echo %pythonhome%
    C:\PYTHON27

    c:\python27

    echo %pythonpath%
    C:\PYTHON27\LIB

    c:\python27\lib

    Also, would you mind sharing the MPS? I've been trying to recreate the error here and had no luck.

    I get this error while trying to run the demo that came with Mystic, testpython.mpy. I've tried a few different Mystic Python scripts and they all give me issues.

    While I run Python scripts from a command prompt, I have no problems.

    And lastly as it's Windows, I have to ask... did you reboot?

    It's Windows, it's rebooted on it's own at least a dozen times in the last month... :)

    This is a bit frustrating, as I have no problems running Python on my Ubuntu system, although Python is already part of the Linux OS.

    Thanks,

    I just deleted the one in the Mystic directory. It was a copy of the one that is located in the c:\windows\SysWOW64\python27.dll

    I'll sleep on it and see if anything else comes to mind.

    No problem. I appreciate the effort. I've been fighting this for awhile already, so it's not a rush.

    It's from the Demo menu that comes with Mystic. Command of GY Execute Python Module, with data of 'testpython.mpy'. I've tried a few others, all set up
    the same way.

    you using the proper version? for example if your running the 64b version of mystic you do 64b of python?

    take a look at this and see if this is what you have

    I'm not sure what I'm missing. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    I run Windows 10 with Mystic and you need to edit your autoexec.bat
    even though its in your windows enviornment variables.

    First go to file explorer options and under the view tab
    check show hidden files folders and drives
    and un check hide protected operating system files

    Then startup notepad with run as administrator
    and include this in your autoexec.bat.

    SET PYTHONHOME=c:\Python27
    SET PYTHONPATH=c:\Python27\Lib
    SET PATH=%PYTHONHOME%;%PATH% PATH=%PATH%;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32;C:\MYSTIC

    Then click save as and make you dont save as text .txt
    or it will save as autoexec.txt :) which you dont want.
    Hit the pulldown to make it all files (*.*)
    and save as autoexec.bat

    Then reboot and you should be good to go with your
    Mystic Python working.

    See, now that is an ambiguous thing. Where exactly does the path need to be set? We can set the path in our shell, but we also have to export it for
    other shells and apps to read it too. I've taken to adding the path
    statements on my MIS startup script. I don't know if that works or if it
    helps at all because is till get version mismatch errors.

    Yes, Python is installed to c:\python27.

    There are a few things to keep in mind. Mystics' python is very different
    than python. Mystic needs an Mystic Python script to be named with the MPY extension and it needs to be in the script directory. It is not possible to use the GY menu option to call a app.py script.

    It is however possible to call a full, non-mystic python script as a door, using the D3 or DD commands.

    I didn't even think of that. Thank you.

    Now, this may be a dumb question, but I'm not finding an autoexec.bat on my system. It would still be in the root directory, correct? I looked in the
    root, and in the windows directories, but didn't see it.

    I have created one following you instructions, but haven't rebooted yet. I
    will reboot and see if it helps.

    Thanks again for the help.

    You cant see it because you have your system set to hide protected files
    in your file manager. unhide them and make hidden files to be also seen.
    after you get your autoexec.bat edited then you can go back and make them hidden again.

    I've got everything unhidden. I can see the swapfile.sys, pagefile.sys, OS, BOOTNXT, etc. The only autoexec.bat file is the one that I created.

    After re-booting it didn't make a difference... :(

    Right now, I'd be happy if I could get the testpython.mpy to run. There are a few others that I have, but I'm waiting until I can get the test one to work before I try them.

    I would have no problem with that. Like I stated, it's been frustrating for
    me, as I can run external Python scripts, such as MRC Chat with no problem. It's only the Mystic Python that is giving me issues.

    I'm sure it's something simple that I missed...

    I'm going to re-read all of these posts and see if I can understand things further. By all accounts it should be working.
    That's why it's been frustrating me... I can't explain why it's not working, unless I'm missing something simple on this end... :)

    Allright, so I've spent some more work on this and not had any luck. I've
    got a few questions.

    1) You're running Win10, 64-bit correct?
    2) You installed 2.7.x Pthon, and it is ALSO 64-bit?
    3) You're trying this on Mystic v1.12 A31, 64 bit?

    I just want to make sure I can completely duplicate what you're trying
    tomorrow and see if I can recreate it. Cause as of yet, I still only have
    the issue when I delete/rename/move python's dll file.

    We'll get to the bottom of this! It's now a puzzle that's got my need to
    solve engaged. :)

    Yes

    It didn't give an option to choose from the Python website. I chose
    'Download' on the Python 2.7.13 version. I would think it would have detected it...

    3) You're trying this on Mystic v1.12 A31, 64 bit?

    It is Mystic v1.12 A31. I don't remember is I installed the 32 or 64 bit
    now... I wonder if that might be the issue. I'll see if I can get the 64 bit
    to make sure... It might be that simple... :)

    I appreciate your help. Thank you.

    Is there an easy way to tell which version I have? Otherwise, would
    overwriting the .exe files with the 64 bit versions work? I don't want to

    There is not, well not that I know of. I do have this in a wish list so that mystic -ver will add this info to it's output.

    Yeah, while it's running go to your Task Manager and in the Process Tab (the default one) look for it and if it says (32 bit) next to it, it's 32 bit. If it says nothing it's 64 bit.

    This was the issue. I must have been running the 32 bit version of Mystic. I just downloaded the 64 bit version and copied the .exe files over the top of what I had. Now it seems that it's working. Once you mentioned it, I couldn't remember which version I had installed of Mystic.

    Everything running 64 bit, and the Mystic Python works!! :)

    Thank you Everyone for your help!

    then you need to make sure you are running the 64b or 32b version and make
    sure they match.

    https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2713rc1/ copy 64b .exe see
    if it works if not then you installed the 32b and then get the 32b copy and copy those .exe and see if it works. im sure there is an easier way but i
    like things difficult lol

    On Linux they are ELF binaries so 'objdump -G mystic' will show the version
    as in 'elf64' or 'elf32'. The real output of an AMD 64 bit is elf64-x86-64,
    but you get the idea. Not sure what does that in Windows, but I suspect
    there is something that can do that.

    Re: Re: Mystic Python not running
    By: Black Panther to Caphood on Tue Mar 21 2017 04:37 pm

    I've got everything unhidden. I can see the swapfile.sys, pagefile.sys, OS, BOOTNXT, etc. The only autoexec.bat file is the one that I created.

    After re-booting it didn't make a difference... :(

    Autoexec.bat does not work anymore... hasn't since XP I think. There's many ways to get to it and they all vary between versions of windows. But there's a "systems environment variable" settings control panel that let's you set all of this. If you can tell me what version of windows you are running I can get the instructions on how to change it sent to you.

    Got it figured out. I was running the 32bit version of Mystic, with the 64
    bit version of Python. I changed over to the 64 bit version of Mystic, and
    it's working fine now.

    Thanks,
