Some known errors that happen when running dbcollect.
PK... errors
File "dbcollect", line 2 PK"""
This means you are running a very old Python version (before 2.6) that does not understand Python ZipApp packages
Environment problems
/usr/bin/env: ‘python’: No such file or directory
This means python is not in $PATH. On more recent RHEL Linux variants (EL 8), you need to specify which Python major version is to be used. Select Python3 if unsure.
alternatives --set python /usr/bin/python3
If you cannot set alternatives correctly, you can also run dbcollect directly with the right Python version:
python3 /usr/local/bin/dbcollect
Git Clone issues
Error: No buildinfo
You are trying to run dbcollect using a cloned repository (git clone). dbcollect should run as a ZipApp package and be downloaded from Github Releases to be reliable. You can manually build dbcollect if you really want to use the git repository.
dbcollect must run from a ZipApp package, use https://github.com/outrunnl/dbcollect/releases/latest
Same as above except somehow you managed to create the buildinfo. Either go with the released ZipApp or follow the build procedure.
