Hi all, I am trying to create a script that will go through the /var/log/secure file on a Linux system and provide desktop notifications for failed login attempts.
Here is the code - http://pastebin.com/MXP8Yd91 And here's notification.py - http://pastebin.com/BhsSTP6H I am facing issue in the function "new_attempts_from_last". I am not able to raise a desktop notification from this function. It always fails with this traceback - http://pastebin.com/cgHMScv3 I see this error only when I try to raise a notification from the aforementioned function. If I run test examples under /usr/share/doc/notify-python/examples, it works just fine. Also, if I try to raise a notification from under if __name__ == "__main__":, it works without any issues. So I don't think there's any issue with OS's notification daemon. Running from python shell like below also works fine: In [1]: import notification In [2]: notification.notification("Hey") What am I missing or doing wrong here? If it matters, I am running Fedora 20, python 2.7 and Cinnamon desktop environment. For readability purposes, I have provided pastebin links. Let me know if this is not the correct way. Regards, Dharmit. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
