Python3 doesn't run with System command

AmarDas

Hi,

I am trying to run a python3 version script from CIW through system command. It ends up with the below error.

system("/bin/python3 myScript.py")

Error: /bin/python3: symbol lookup error: /bin/python3: undefined symbol: _Py_LegacyLocaleDetected

I can run the command "/bin/python3 myScript.py" through terminal without any issue.


It runs fine from CIW, If I use python version1.

system("/bin/python myScript.py").

Anyone has any idea ?

Thanks,

Amar

    Hi,

    I found the solution, Instead of /bin/python3, I have to just use python3. This fixed the issue.

    Regards,
