FAQ

Python 2 or Python 3?

Python 2 should work but we have seen strange behaviour on some systems using Python 2.

Python 3 is recommended.

I have updated the config but all my old jobs are still wrong!

Only new paths are evaulated. Old paths needs to be reseted using the --reset-path argument to ''sams-software-updater''

How to I find the paths for a software?

Using the ''sams-software-updater'' script you can show all known paths for a software with the argument --show-software="software".

Reset a lots of paths is hard work!

All ---path arguments to ''sams-software-updater'' can make use of the GLOB. "" and "?" can be used to find and reset path in bulk.

How do I reset/resend all software?

Using the ''sams-software-updater'' script you can reset all known paths with the argument --reset-path="*".

Next time ''sams-software-updater'' is run all paths will be evaluated again and the ''sams-software-extractor'' will export all jobs again.

How do I handle softwares run from user writable dir like /tmp?

Using %(user)s and/or %(project)s in local version will work well.

If used with the sams.software.Regexp module you will have to write %%(user)s and %%(project)s to prevent Regexp module to try to replace them locally.
