OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

[eh2006re]

Hello,

I just installed pyds9 on my Debian machine ( Description: Debian GNU/Linux 9.4 (stretch) Release: 9.4 Codename: stretch )

cd pyds9-1.7 sudo python2.7 setup.py install

However, when I tried in python2.7 shell, it failed

import ds9

d = ds9.ds9() Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 1, in File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ds9.py", line 283, in init self.pid = subprocess.Popen([ds9Globals["progs"][1], '-title', target] + args) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 390, in init errread, errwrite) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1024, in _execute_child raise child_exception OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

am I missing something during install ?

look forward to hearing from you. Best regards

Do you have DS9 installed and in the $PATH? The error suggests that the answer is "no".
