Hi,
Having a problem where after installing spyder I can only run it as sudo.
I'm using Ubuntu 12.10 and installed spyder 2.2.5
I tried installing using both the apt-get and pip methods. I even tried to
run via the ubuntu software center.
I tried chown and chmod on the spyder directories.
When I try to start spyder I get the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/local/bin/spyder", line 3, in <module>
start_app.main()
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/start_app.py",
line 67, in main
if not lock.lock():
File
"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/spyderlib/utils/external/lockfile.py",
line 144, in lock
symlink(str(os.getpid()), self.name)
OSError: [Errno 13] Permission denied
running sudo spyder works fine.
I'm also using virtualenv which I'm fairly new too, and my suspicion is
that when spyder installed it put it somewhere virtualenv can't see or
doesn't have access. But I not sure how to either tell spyder to install in
a place virtualenv recognizes.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Adrian
