Errors running the program #348

Closed CathesisGM closed 2 years ago

CathesisGM commented 2 years ago

I manually installed the software to my pi 3B, and when I try and run visualizer.py from the terminal I'm given this error: IMG_20220402_181835

I'm a newbie when it comes to this kind of stuff so some help would be great :)

Hey, run visualizer with "sudo" permissions sudo python3 visualizer.py

Thanks, that worked. visualizer.py seems to run now, but my LED strip just goes bananas and nothing I do on the web interface/piano seems to do anything to it? I'm not sure if I'm missing something obvious again or not.

goes bananas

I'm not sure what you mean by that, but check your wirings.

Apparently my ground wire fell out haha. Works great now, thanks a ton.
