[20132] Failed to execute script EDScout

What options did you launch it with? That's an odd error.

Does running the diangostic build shed any more light?

Do you have Python 3.7 installed with the dns package by any chance?

The line mentioned in the crash report above looks pretty innocuous (outside of the code I wrote):

from flask_socketio import SocketIO

Sorry I missed this. I just started it right after install. Ididn't specify any startup params. Also the text in my ticket is from the diagnostic build <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. www.avast.com <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail&utm_term=link> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>

Sounds like this might be a solved issue with a newer version of the python DNS library.

rthalley/dnspython#257

I'll see if I can get that upgraded.

Sadly it looks like one of the modules EDScout depents on (eventlet) is incompatible with the newer DNS module: eventlet/eventlet#698 (comment)

[cyvan]

hey Jon, did you ever get this sorted out? I downloaded the latest version and its still happening. Was just about to go on an extended exploration trip too :(

Try 1.9.0 if it's not massively too late :P

[cyvan]

hahah .. just a tad :P Haven't played ED seriously in years. Poked my head in during the Earth invasion and to see if my FC was paid up but that was it.
