PermissionError

[mthd98]

hi vitiyal i have problem can you help me to fix it iam using nvidia jetson tx2 and i'm new user for Ubuntu

PermissionError(388, 'Permission denied')

/home/nvidia/.local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/gpio.py(75)wrapped() -> with open(pjoin(gpio_root, 'export'), 'w') as f:

how i can fix it

You may need to configure your privileges. Try running your script with "sudo", i.e. "sudo python myscript.py" and see if that works.

Running python in sudo should fix this. Also make sure you aren't using using any commands, like gpio.output(), before doing gpio.setup. This will also return a permission error. I recently wrote a little tutorial for this library running on Jetson TX2 over on the nvidia devtalk site: https://devtalk.nvidia.com/default/topic/1030443/using-gpio-on-nvidia-jetson-tx2/?offset=4#5330619

hi everyone

https://github.com/vitiral/gpio/blob/fd8e954321abf2746057f7a4085ba47a5a552e60/gpio/init.py#L19

i found that when fmode is w+ will throw a error even run with sudo

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/sys/class/gpio/export'

but change it to w can resolve this problem

Curious. I wonder if this is true in all cases, or if we should add a way to customise FMODE.

same for me, running version 1.0.0. Maybe add a way for controlling F mode per pin?

some of them only need to be output only.

thanks

sounds like a reasonable feature/setting to add when creating pins
