Question

I am working on an application that needs installation for airnotifier, I have followed the installation instruction in the following link:

https://github.com/dcai/airnotifier/wiki/Installation-3.x

on the last command of running app.py I got the following error

airnotifier@airnotifier:~/airnotifier$ pipenv run python app.py
app.py:73: DeprecationWarning: The 'warn' function is deprecated, use 'warning' instead
  logging.warn("Sentry dsn is not set")

I checked the permissions of the files and searched a lot but couldn't find a way to solve this problem

Answer 1

You need to run with sudo , as stated in the installation instructions you linked. As you see, the error comes from trying to bind a socket to a port. Most probably it's trying to use a privileged port (<1024), which can only be done with elevated permissions (ie sudo ).
