'ffpass' is a package and cannot be directly executed #59

Closed wickens closed 3 years ago

wickens commented 3 years ago

Hi, I installed Python using this guide. Version 3.9.0.

The ffpass command didn't work right away so after searching around I came across a suggestion to use

python3 -m ffpass

However, when running this I get the following message: /Users/mandi/.pyenv/versions/3.9.0/bin/python3: No module named ffpass.__main__; 'ffpass' is a package and cannot be directly executed

Any suggestions much appreciated.

If it helps: mandi@Hodor ~ % which python3
returns /Users/mandi/.pyenv/shims/python3

Also: mandi@Hodor ~ % pip3 install ffpass Requirement already satisfied: ffpass in ./.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages (0.5.0) Requirement already satisfied: pyasn1 in ./.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages (from ffpass) (0.4.8) Requirement already satisfied: pycryptodome in ./.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages (from ffpass) (3.10.1) WARNING: You are using pip version 20.2.3; however, version 21.0.1 is available. You should consider upgrading via the '/Users/mandi/.pyenv/versions/3.9.0/bin/python3.9 -m pip install --upgrade pip' command.

Could you give me output of ls /Users/mandi/.pyenv/versions/3.9.0/bin/python3.9? I think it is probably an issue with pyenv that does not create the shim. Le 20 févr. 2021 à 19:07 +0100, Marc Wickens notifications@github.com, a écrit :

The last part of that path 'python3.9' doesn't appear to be a directory, here is the output of the directory above

ls -hl /Users/mandi/.pyenv/versions/3.9.0/bin

I think you should try pyenv rehash

wickens commented 3 years ago

Thanks. I did that, reinstalled via pip and it's working. FYI anyone who installed Firefox to use this script, for the purpose of allowing Safari to import the passwords, you have to save at least one password in Firefox for it to create the password DB. If you don't do that you'll get a 'Firefox database not found message'. Thanks again.
