"exec" Permission denied

[David Hansson]

I am trying to execute a python script that makes a file. I get an error message.

python /home/pi/engrave-lines.py -X7.5 -x5 -i'123' -Y12.75 -y5.25 -S0.4 -s0.5 -Z2 -D0.1 -0'test' > test.ngc

{ "payload": "/bin/sh: 1: cannot create test.ngc: Permission denied\n", "_msgid": "93dad0c2.6c253" }

{ "payload": { "killed": false, "code": 2, "signal": null, "cmd": "/bin/sh -c python /home/pi/engrave-lines.py -X7.5 -x5 -i'123' -Y12.75 -y5.25 -S0.4 -s0.5 -Z2 -D0.1 -0' test2a ' > test.ngc" }, "_msgid": "93dad0c2.6c253" }

Greatful for information that can help me with my issue.

it runs the command relative to the node.js installation which is in /usr/lib/node_modules.  so is only accessible by root.

So easiest way is to fully path the file you want to create - eg > /home/pi/mynewfile.ngc
