Linux CubeMX python is not working as pre/post code generation script

[nobody]

What I have to do that I can directly call some python scripts as pre/post code generation step with CubeMX 6.14.1 under Linux?

Currently I can execute directly the python script on a Windows Machine, but on the Linux machine nothing happens. On Linux I can execute the scripts directly from command line without CubeMX and I can execute the scripts over a bash script which is calling the python script.

• Do I need to configure anything additional?
• Is there a possibility to select which python version is used?
• Any other hint where my problem could be?

Thanks in advance

does your script contain a proper shebang?

has it the executable flag set?

If so and it doesn't work, wrap it in a shell script.

I tried different shebang's and I set also executable flag (See printscreens)

And what does "which python" on the command line return ?

Does it work if you use "python ../../helloWorld.py"?

Unfortunately it does not work with python before the path. Without python cubeMX does not complain, but it is not executed.

Relative path can be wrong. Try: python -c "import os; os.getcwd()"  to see if python works at all and where you are.

If I understood you right, you also suggested to directly execute that. Unfortunately it looks that only a file selection is possible.

I've tried also to select an existing file, such as (in Windows) c:\tmp\junk.bat  - with same result: "the specified path is invalid". 

Only if the script file is in the same directory with the .ioc , and specified *with NO path* at all  (just junk.bat) - it works.

For me, both .bat and .py files run on Windows.

In Linux, either mark the file executable or wrap in a script.
