Can't put the PyIpChanger to work

Hello!

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1526687

What I do?

What is tibia?

Edit: Found it in the AUR. It appears that /usr/bin/tibia is a shell script, not an executable. That's probably why it's failing.

It seems that the script needs the write access to the tibia binary.

        # This might give a open error if the path is wrong
        try:
            tibia = open(path, "r+b")
        except:
            self.te.append("Error: Unable to open %s" % path)
            return

You have to change the permission for the tibia executable or copy it for example to your home.

The code in my previous post is extracted from the python script PyIpChanger.py (lines 142-147 in the file) and it can be translated in the following instructions:

try to open the file named path for both reading and writing operations.
if step 1 failed then show an unuseful error message.

Now, /usr/bin/tibia is owned by root and can be read and executed by a normal user but only the owner can open it for writing. This means that when you run the scrip the step 1 will fail unless you change its permissions (or change the owner) https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fi … attributes

"try to open the file named path for both reading and writing operations."

There is no file named "patch"

"Now, /usr/bin/tibia is owned by root and can be read and executed by a normal user but only the owner can open it for writing. This means that when you run the scrip the step 1 will fail unless you change its permissions (or change the owner)"

So, what I do?

path is a variable, a place-holder for the name of the tibia executable.

Please, don't be a help vampire. I already said you what to do and also gave you a link to the arch wiki page in which it is explained how to do it.
