Remember to:
- Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
- Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
- Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.
:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.
is that windows 8?
I mean I already paid for the membership
Damn
There’s no python things I can use on windows 8?
can you update to windows 10?
try vs code
install ubuntu 20.04?
or switch your rdp server's os
you can also just use python itself on your server
edit locally on your pc, then upload the code to the server
How do I even attempt to update my windows on rdp
that depends on the service
assuming you have pycharm professional
i have no idea what rdp monster is
remote desktop
but they probably have a way of selecting the OS, no?
Uhm
vscode requires windows 10 as well
Well shit
Let me send a few ss hold on
yeah idk if u can do anything with os lol
Is it this? https://rdp.monster/
correct
can you delete and recreate the server?
if so, when creating the server, is there an OS selection?
nope there originally never was and I don't think so hold on
doesnt let me take an ss there but this is what you see when you start
That's not windows 8. It's Windows Server 2012R2
Yep
Not even windows 8
Am I cooked lol
2012 R2 is the server version of windows 8
Ah
2016 is the server version of windows 10
Oh that makes sense
2022 is the server version of windows 11
What are you using this server for? Just development?
I literally just wanna run a python code and a config file alongside with it
Yes development
You don't need pycharm for that
you can install just python
Just dev...
Yeah I have python installed lol
You don't plan on using it as a production machine?
Not rly it’s gonna be on 24/7 though
I don’t want to turn my laptop on 24/7
yeah if all you're gonna do is run a python script, why not a linux vps?
Oh yeah
should be cheaper and easier to set up
you won't have a GUI like RDP but it won't be too hard to get started
Will that be able to open tabs on Firefox?
Well, you can have a gui if you want and connect with vnc
Automatically
What are you doing with firefox?
Postbacks
But
Just look at this summary
What the program does is just open about 120 tabs every single day on Firefox not at the same time but spread out between 1 minute apart from each tab
That’s why I needed a rdp
that seems... wasteful
And what is it doing?
Literally nothing I’m just learning alongside a friend and testing postbacks for site
I mean it’s just timers going off that triggers new links to be open around every 23-24 hours that’s why
Wouldn’t that require my laptop to be on the whole time though?
The whole point of the rdp was to reduce the resources being used on my laptop lol
I just couldn’t figure out how to actually run a python script on the rdp + a config file behind it
just open a terminal and run python
if that's where the script expects it
Well wouldn’t it be the same since pycharm isn’t doing anything different then that
On pycharm the config.json is on the same folder
Yeah
yup
Okay how about I go give a try and get back to you lol
Oh shit what should I do about Firefox lmao
Since it isn’t support on windows 8.1
install an older version
Mm okay
You should consider upgrading your server
Uh to which one
I mean my budget can afford any of them lol
2022
sounds like you need a better service
locking a updated version of windows behind a "premium" service?
It's almost like though bought a bunch of server 2012 licenses for bulk right before 2016 came out
tbh I'm just assuming i dont even know
I'll change service fs
after the month 🤣
alrdy spent my money so yeah
but doesn't just renaming the note file .py change it to an executable python file?
stills a text for me unless I'm forgetting something
is the file name script.py.txt?
are you sure? Are file extensions shown in explorer?
the file icon is for a text file
does it say "PY file" to the right or "Text Document"?
Text document
Then you have file extensions hidden. The extension is .txt
windows hides it to "protect" you from breaking your files.
Ah
click view then check "show file extensions"
Yeah sorry my brains not functioning rn where do you see view
It's a tab in the explorer window
Ah
There it is
Niceeeeee
So that’s why I could never do it normally on my laptop 😂 good to know
Hmm it’s giving me an error when tryna run it from cmd
Says it doesn’t exist
use the full path to the script
@brazen forum just got spyder to work
all problems solved
anddd nvm the tkinter program just does the window wait error where it turns white smh
