Lubuntu Raring Ringtail. I want to be able to execute my scripts with ./



I start my python script with #!/usr/bin/python and it says



bash : ./myscript.py: /usr/bin/python^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory


If I use #!/usr/bin/env python it gives a similar error:



: No such file or directory


What am I doing wrong?



I absolutely have python installed, and can run the scripts as normal with python myscript.py

From the ^M you can see that the file myscript.py is using windows/dos-style line breaks (Windows uses CR LF (carriage return + line feed) at the end of a line. Unix only uses LF - so what you see as ^M is the CR. So what you are not using /usr/bin/python but /usr/bin/python<CR> that does not exist.



You can remove the ^M using dos2unix (do a sudo apt-get install dos2unix to install and then use dos2unix myscript.py).

    Do this, then try your Python script:



    $ tr -d 'r' < test.py > newtest.py


    This removes the carriage returns created from Windows



    To further reading, Remove Windows carriage returns with tr

      From the ^M you can see that the file myscript.py is using windows/dos-style line breaks (Windows uses CR LF (carriage return + line feed) at the end of a line. Unix only uses LF - so what you see as ^M is the CR. So what you are not using /usr/bin/python but /usr/bin/python<CR> that does not exist.



      You can remove the ^M using dos2unix (do a sudo apt-get install dos2unix to install and then use dos2unix myscript.py).
