Hi, I'm running a python script which if I run from the command line as root runs fine. But if I run it through the web-browser as a cgi script gives the following error "Error in X11: unable to start device PNG".
Now I should say that this python script is calling fucntions in R (a scripting languange used in statistics) using the python module RPy, so this I dunno if this is entirely a Python question, because as far as I can see the error is being thrown by R. But then as I say, when the script is run by the root user from the command line everything goes off without a hitch. So I dunno is there some way to run a CGI script as root, maybe thats a bad idea because of security? But any ideas would be welcome. -Thanks. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
