New submission from Cal Leeming <cal.leem...@simplicitymedialtd.co.uk>:
If you attempt to call subprocess.check_output() on a file which is not
executable, it gives a "file not found" exception, rather than "file not
executable". Took me about 3 hours to figure out why it kept saying the file
didn't exist, when it clearly did :|
***@***# ls -la ***/src/webapp/tools/grab.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 *** *** 4398 Apr 19 10:55 ***/src/webapp/tools/grab.sh
