How can I autostart python in raspberry with Tkinter

Question

I am writing a python program with tkinter in RPI. I want to Autostart this program on boot, but it keeps error on: Error Message PS:I didn't using any matlab on this program.

Answer 1

Raspbian? I just used the autostart file to do this. Edit /home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart and add:

@/home/pi/path/to/myprogram.py

Be sure to include a shebang in your file. Then set the executable bit with this command:

chmod +x /home/pi/path/to/myprogram.py

Edit: That error looks like you are trying to run your program remotely, via ssh or something. I don't think that error is related to the autostart. If you want to run the program via ssh, you need to type this command first:

export DISPLAY=:0

Answer 2

This works for me:

cd /home/pi/.config/autostart    

Then create new file:

sudo nano pythonprogramm.desktop

(you can replace "pythonprogramm")

And you write this in the new file:

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Name=pythonprogramm
#Exec=sudo idle /var/www/html/pythonprogramm.py
Exec=sudo /var/www/html/pythonprogramm.py
StartupNotify=false
Terminal=yes
Hidden=false

Reboot and it should work :)
