Consul can't find python module

[SurferL]

Consul --version: v1.0.6

So on OSX, I've installed python2 with brew (Python 2.7.14)

I've also installed the psutil library with pip:

$ sudo pip install psutil

Requirement already satisfied: psutil in /usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages

I have a check which looks something like:

               {

"id": "cpuUsage",

"name": "CPU Usage",

"args": ["python", "/Users/consul/scripts/cpu_usage.py"],

"interval": "15s",

"timeout": "2s",

"status": "passing"

},

However, I'm getting an error with the following:

OUTPUT

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/consul/scripts/cpu_usage.py", line 1, in <module>
    import psutil
ImportError: No module named psutil

But running the script manually works as intended on the machine.

It seems that the consul agent isn't able to access the python library which I installed via pip...?

Can anyone suggest a way to fix this?

Thanks!

The python consul is invoking is being resolved from the PATH env var used by consul when it’s started.  That’s apparently not the same PATH as your shell is set up to use.  Try replacing the “python” in the check’s “args” with the python actually used by your shell (“which python” to get you started).

Yup this is it - I had to change the `python` arg to `/usr/local/bin/python`

Thanks!
