player-mpris-simple: Permission Denied
FrenzyExists opened this issue · 8 comments
Issue: As an alternative from mpd I decided to try mpris to see the music title and so on at my polybar. However ,for some reason I am getting permission denied from my polybar as seen here:
P.S. I am kind of a novice in terms of scripting, so I apologize if the solution was too dumb-simple and I couldn't see it.
What happen if you run the script in a terminal?
Nothing actually, everything seems to run normally, except for the not found message at polybar
This is what I have at the config
[module/player-mpris-simple]
type = custom/script
exec = ~/.config/polybar/scripts/player-mpris-simple.sh
interval = 3
click-left = playerctl previous &
click-right = playerctl next &
click-middle = playerctl play-pause &
Ok, I'm back, somehow for some reason the script is actually working, however, the "Not found" message still persist even if it actually did found the script and the player polybar does respond when I click
Are you sure that the path is correct?
