Error rtb.service

[dd121]

New install, database sqlite.

Service wont start with error:

$ sudo systemctl status rtb
● rtb.service - Root The Box daemon
     Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/rtb.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
     Active: activating (auto-restart) (Result: exit-code) since Mon 2022-10-10 12:46:28 UTC; 5s ago

   Main PID: 1424 (code=exited, status=203/EXEC)

When normal starting with rootthebox.py --start I get this error:

$ python3 rootthebox.py --start

  asyncio.ensure_future(self._update_gamestate(self, app))
RuntimeWarning: Enable tracemalloc to get the object allocation traceback

I suspect maybe the error is throwing the service, but I don't know how to fix it.

The latest commit catches this error, so try and run an update. It should be a non issue and not sure why it even wants an await. What python version you running. The debug is likely set in your config file.

[dd121]

Yes, debug was set in config file. Fixed that Issue still stands Update says I am running the latest version of rtb and I am running Python 3.10.6

error now:

The latest version of Python that RTB supports is 3.8.x as 3.9 / 3.10 removed features that slows us to support 2.7.x. We haven't yet made the full conversion to depreciate the backward compatibility.

Also, just wanted to make sure you have the latest commit as I put in a try except on that warning recently.

If you are deploying in aws then change in rtb.service .

Version 3.12.0 removes the async and will resolve the RuntimeWarning: coroutine 'Scoreboard._update_gamestate' was never awaited warning.
