Hello, I have a script in /usr/local/app/mypython.py and a configuration file relative to /usr/local/app/conf. When I call the script with an absolute path of /usr/local/app/mypthon.py I recieved an error similar to the below error:
Traceback (most recent call last): File "script/art/auditlog.py", line 28, in ? database = Config.get("DB", "user") File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/ python2.3/ConfigParser.py", line 505, in get raise NoSectionError(section) ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'DB' I know why, the configuration which I reference in the script is relative to "/usr/local/app", when I call the script via an absolute path, then the relative the configuration file is base on where ever I call the script from. One way to fix this is to add a path manually into the variable. But I would like to avoid this hard-coding parameter into my script. Is there a way to determined the relative location of the script programatically? FYI, in the end this scrip would run from CRON. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
