Python Troubleshooting steps

Here we are listing the troubleshooting steps for the python script to be executed

1. Check whether python is installed or not in the sever where SDP is installed
2. If it's installed check the version of python ( Preferable version should be above 3.7)
3. Check whether python path is added in an environment variables


4. Check whether Execute script is added correctly or not in Custom Menu/Custom Trigger

Example: py createChildRequests.py (if python path is set in an environment variable)
C:\Users\seshadri-0040\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\python.exe createChildRequests.py  (if python path is not set in an environment variable)

5. if ImportError: No module named requests error occurs when executing a file we need to import the requests module



Note: If any module error comes we need to install the same module

6. If module error comes even after installing the module, Check if any multiple python versions installed in the server 

If multiple python versions installed uninstall any one version and follow the same steps from starting
