Scripting - executing shell command does not work

[td598]

myMPD version: 18.0.0

I try to get script "JukeboxBlissify" to work. I installed everything neccessary and when I run the following command that is created in the script in a terminal it works great: /home/tc/.cargo/bin/blissify -c /home/tc/.config/bliss-rs/config.json playlist --seed-song --dry-run --from-song "/var/lib/mpd/music/A Tasty Sound Collection/Cigars & Sounds/01 His Hometown.flac" 52 2>/dev/null

Running this in the script does not work at all. "mympd.os_capture(cmd)" result is nil. Mympd message: "Failure adding songs to jukebox queue" I am aware of issue 399 but it did not work either.

You can try a simple script to check if mympd.os_execute works:

local output = mympd.os_capture("ls /")
return output

If this returns a filesystem listing, it is a script or blissify issue and not a general myMPD issue.

If this works, try:

local output =  mympd.os_capture("/home/tc/.cargo/bin/blissify -c /home/tc/.config/bliss-rs/config.json playlist --seed-song --dry-run --from-song '/var/lib/mpd/music/A Tasty Sound Collection/Cigars & Sounds/01 His Hometown.flac' 52")
return output

I removed the 2>/dev/null on purpose to not hide error messages.

Thank you for the fast answer. The first script worked nicely. The second again not at all. It only said "Skript test erfolgreich gestartet". In a terminal it worked though.

Any Output in the log? You run it under systemd? The default systemd unit has protecthome set to true.

Moving this issue to the mympd-script repo.

This is the output of the journalctl command: Oct 11 09:46:34 Test mympd[6000]: sh: 1: /home/tc/.cargo/bin/blissify: Permission denied I expected this to be an authorization topic. But to be honest I am not good with this and do not know how to solve.

Simply move the blissify installation out of your home directory. The default systemd unit of myMPD has ProtectHome set to true and this prevents myMPD accessing home directories.
