I think I've mentioned I'm trying to build a package for PyMSNt
in the PKGSRC system (to be found at http://www.pkgsrc.org.)
I got it all installed in a system directory, and when started
from twistd, it now finds the configuration file correctly.
(yeah!)
But, on start up, it exits almost immediately with an
application error.
"Failed to load application: [Errno 2] No such file or directory:
'src/legacy/defaultJabberAvatar.png'"
The offending code appears to be in legacy/glue.py. I'm
suspecting that the file request really should be relative to
"PATH" (as defined in PyMSNt.tac), or relative to the current
working directory (``legacy/defaultJabberAvatar.png'')
Yup, making that change allowed it to start without any
problems. The patch is:
--- src/legacy/glue.py.orig 2005-11-01 23:55:29.000000000 -0600
+++ src/legacy/glue.py
@@ -27,7 +27,7 @@ id = "msn" # The transport
# Load the default avatar
-f = open("src/legacy/defaultJabberAvatar.png")
+f = open("legacy/defaultJabberAvatar.png")
defaultJabberAvatarData = f.read()
f.close()
Now to see if I can actually connect to MSN.. I expect so,
having heard otherwise good things about PyMSNt for quite a
while!
Look for py-jabber-msnt to arrive in pkgsrc-wip.sf.net within
the hour! (for version 0.10.2)

If you're running the transport with twistd, then the working directory
is indeed the PATH variable in PyMSNt.tac
If you're running the program with python directly, then you should not
be in the src/ directory when running.
cd /usr/local/PyMSNt
python src/main.py
That will start it correctly, with /usr/local/PyMSNt as the working
directory.
