running spynner script on linux without x11

Question

I wrote script which collect some userful for me data from my accounts. I run it on windows and everything works ok. But I am not able to run it on linux (without gui).

I installed pyqt4, spynner and all necessary dependencies. The problem is:

object does not have attribute findfirstelement.

As I understand, qwebframe object not able to work with browser. I installed firefox and chromiumbafter that but it is not work. Had I install browser first? I run script inxvfb, as i haven't x11

xvfb-run python ...py

Answer 1

The findFirstElement function and the QWebElement classes were introduced in Qt-4.6.

However, PyQt versions don't always match the Qt ones, and so PyQt-4.6.2 only has support for Qt-4.5. The first version that supports Qt-4.6 is PyQt-4.7, which also adds support for the QWebElement classes.

So it looks like you just need to upgrade PyQt to 4.7 or greater.
