swarming in docker not working!

Docker version 19.03.2, build 6a30dfc on
18.04.1-Ubuntu

The error in the shell after following instructions here: https://nupic.docs.numenta.org/1.0.0/guides/swarming/running.html

How are you invoking the docker image? The Dockerfile for NuPIC specifies Ubuntu 14, not 18, so I have a suspicion maybe you built your own image? I suggest you use the images we have on docker hub at https://hub.docker.com/r/numenta/nupic.

The error suggests the python script is not being interpreted properly as python. Maybe try running python $NUPIC/scripts/run_swarm.py?

Sorry I responded on the forum:

I am following the exact instructions here:

https://nupic.docs.numenta.org/1.0.0/guides/swarming/running.html

the instruction:

docker run
--name nupic
-e NTA_CONF_PROP_nupic_cluster_database_passwd=nupic
-e NTA_CONF_PROP_nupic_cluster_database_host=mysql
--link nupic-mysql:mysql
-ti
numenta/nupic

the mysql command is:

docker run
--name nupic-mysql
-e MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=nupic
-p 3306:3306
-d
mysql:5.6

When in the shell I run

${NUPIC}/scripts/run_swarm.py ${NUPIC}/examples/swarm/simple/search_def.json --maxWorkers=4

I will just run ${NUPIC}/scripts/run_swarm.py and see what happens. Have to go now.
Thanks for responding so promptly !!

problem Solved! I copied and pasted from the above cite and there is no python command.
Thanks for your prompt response!
