FileNotFoundError at /urlpath, after hosting Django project to Heroku

[lejaha...@gmail.com]

Created a an application that generates pdf-files from latex templates saved on the project, using the subprocess('pdflatex nameofTemplate' ) method.

The application works fine, locally. But does not work on the server and returns "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'pdflatex mytexfile.tex': 'pdflatex mytexfile.tex'", everytime I call the method to generate the latex files. 

Please kindly advise on how I can make the pdflatex and latex files accessible to my subprocess.call() method.

Hej Lejaha

By installing pdflatex on the server and ensuring its in the path of the
user running the application or giving the full path to the pdflatex
executable in the call to subprocess.

How to install software on the server depends on the OS of the server
and how its maintained and you'll most likely have better luck getting
answers if you ask whoever is maintaining the server.

Kind regards,

Thank you very much. Everything worked after specifying the path to the pdflatex.
