Hi all,
I'm trying to capture the json output of a python script using the Exec Input
Plugin. For some reason, I'm getting the following error when telegraf tries to
execute the script and collect the metrics:
```
telegraf_1 | 2016-08-02T09:43:00.360767123Z 2016/08/02 09:43:00 ERROR in
input [exec]: exec: exit status 1 for command '/home/myscript.py'
```
The relevant entry of telegraf.conf file loos like the following:
```
[[inputs.exec]]
command = "/home/myscript.py"
data_format = "json"
name_suffix = "_some_suffix"
timeout = "10s"
tag_keys = ["key", "unit"]
```
/home/myscript.py has execution permissions ('chmod +x') and outputs the
following:
```
{"key": "some_key", "value": 28.214, "unit": "ms"}
```
I've checked that the exit status of running `/home/myscript.py` is 0.
The weirdest part is that, if I run `$ telegraf -config /etc/telegraf.conf`
-test`, I get a successful output:
```
* Plugin: exec, Collection 1
> exec_some_suffix,host=13ceb7312093,key=some_key,unit=ms value=19.539
> 1470132272694745614
```
Do you have any idea of what could be happening?
