Well, instead of being a smartass it would be nice if you could actually help for once.

Interesting!
Among the things which you dont seem to know is the meaning of the
word 'once'.

Same applies for you too. Stop being smartasses.

Please keep in mind that this is a community of volunteers.  Nobody
here is being paid for their time to help you fix your website, and if
you manage to irritate us in the process, we're likely to just walk
away from it.

I looked over the code that you have provided us with, and based on
that I could not see any reason why the html would be in the form of a
bytes instead of a str.  Since nobody else here seems to have any
further insight into the problem either, you're just going to have to
find a a way to debug the code.  If you cannot do that on your own,
then I suggest that you find a contractor who can, hire them, and
grant them the access they need to do a real debugging session.

I would also recommend that in the future you should stop deploying
untested code to your production website.  Set up a development
environment for yourself, make the changes there, and only deploy when
you know that everything is working.

I agree with what you say except form the fact that i try to irritate people.
Look at the thread and you will see who's irritating whom first.

SyntaxError: invalid syntax
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/foo-py]# 

As far as thr tail -f of the error_log:

root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html]# touch /var/log/httpd/error_log
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html]# tail -f /var/log/httpd/error_log

and its empty even when at the exact same time i run 'python3 metrites.py' from another interactive prompt when it supposed to give live feed of the error messages.

Cameron would it be too much to ask to provide you with root access to my VPS server so you can have a look there too?

i can pay you if you like if you wait a few days to gather some money.

That is because foo.py isn't a python script anymore, it is a shell script.
Its purpose is to divert stderr to a file and to recite various
things about the environment to that file in addition to any error
messages.

Just run it directly:

  ./foo.py

The #! line should cause it to be run by the shell.

I also recommend you try to do all this as your normal user account.
Root is for administration, such as stopping/starting apache and
so on. Not test running scripts from the command line; consider:
if the script has bugs, as root it can do an awful lot of damage.

| As far as thr tail -f of the error_log:

That won't do you much good; apache has not opened it, and so it
will not be writing to it. It was writing to a file of that name,
but you removed that file. Apache probably still has its hooks in the old
file (which now has no name).

Restarting apache should open (or create if missing) this file for you.

No, _apache_ writes to that file. So only when you visit the web
page will stuff appear there.

If you just run things from the command line, error messages will appear on your terminal. Or, after this line of the wrapper script:

  exec 2>>/home/nikos/cgi.err.out

the error messages will appear in cgi.err.out.

I really do not recommend that:

  - it is nuts to blithely allow a stranger root access to your system
  - you won't learn anything about CGI scripts

What you need for further debugging of your python issues is access
to the error messages from the CGI script. That is the purpose of
the wrapper script.

Get the wrapper running on the command line and then test it via the browser.

Well i trust you because you are the only one along with Lele that are helpimg me here:

i tried what you said:

root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/cgi-bin]# service httpd restart
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/cgi-bin]# python3 metrites.py 
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html]# cd foo-py/
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/foo-py]# ls
./  ../  foo.py*
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/foo-py]# ./foo.py 
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/foo-py]# cd ..
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html]# cat cgi.err.out 
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/cgi-bin]# cat /var/log/httpd/error_log 
root@nikos [/home/nikos/public_html/cgi-bin]# 

and i have run the script form browser but i still see nothing.

I insist that you will make the most of this if you access the VPS yourself.
it runs CentOS 6.4

Please accept, i trust you.

Very well.

Let's take this off list to personal email (note that the reply-to
on this message is just myself, not the list/group).

We can return here after sorting CGI issues, should there be any further python
specific issues.

Reply to this message. I will email you my ssh public key. Please make me an
_ordinary_ user account called "cameron" and send me the ssh details of your VPS.

You need to try trimming quoted text in replies, not double-spacing,
and paying for help.
