I'm going round in circles on this...
I have a Python script written in a virtual environment (I was forced to use a venv to get the necessary libraries to install - I'd have referred not to!)
Anyway, the script is finished & works on my PiZero2W, when the venv is actrivated & the script itself is called from the commandline.
However, nothing I do seems to get it to run automatically on boot.
I've created a crontab which successfully calls another script, (to activate the venv and run the pythion code)cd lo, as follows (this must be the 20th iteration):
The result (in the) cronlog is this:The venv isn't getting activated, meaning my python script, runs, but fails, as it can't find the libraries it needs.
So.. what am I doing wrong here??
cheers
