PyCharm PermissionError

I have a little problem with pycharm permission. I wanted to run my script but then appears a permission error. I used the package pythonping to ping a proxy address. I can run the script over the terminal in MacOS with the sudo command but i wanted to run everything in PyCharm.

Here is the Code:

import pythonping

pythonping.ping('47.241.107.35', verbose=True)

and this is the output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/dominik/Documents/Pycharm Projects on MacOS/venv/scripts/test_pythonping.py", line 3, in <module>
    pythonping.ping('47.241.107.35', verbose=True)

PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted
Solution

  • You can run PyCharm as an admin and then all scripts will run with admin rights.
