使用subprocess.Popen无法在Web服务中打开pdf文件

我在打开PDF文件时遇到问题。

(我正在使用与Apache2一起工作的mod_wsgi下的Ladon和Python。所以在ubuntu apache服务器系统上切换到windows系统)

我正在尝试运行以下Python脚本:

(其中,str_pdf_file_name = '/var/www/Accounting_Engine/pdfDocuments/File_name.pdf'

def preview_pdf(self,str_pdf_file_name):
    try:
                if sys.version_info[:2] > (2,3):
                    import subprocess
                    from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
                    k = subprocess.Popen(['evince', str_pdf_file_name],stdout=PIPE)
                    print k.communicate()
                else:
                    os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, 'evince', 'evince', str_pdf_file_name)
    except Exception,msg:
        return str(msg)
    return str_pdf_file_name

我在apache2.conf文件中禁用了stdin和stdout限制为

WSGIRestrictStdin Off    
WSGIRestrictStdout Off

现在error.log文件显示(/var/log/apache2/error.log):

Cannot parse arguments: Cannot open display: [Wed Oct 10 11:50:24 2012] [error] ('', None)

我也检查了os.environ。它显示如下:

{'LANG': 'C', 'APACHE_RUN_USER': 'www-data', 'APACHE_PID_FILE': '/var/run/apache2.pid', 'PWD': '/home/user', 'APACHE_RUN_GROUP': 'www-data', 'PATH': '/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin'}

我也尝试过使用以下代码更改PWD:

import pwd
os.environ["PWD"] = pwd.getpwuid(os.getuid()).pw_dir    # Because PWD of 'www-data' was '/var/www'
k = subprocess.Popen(['evince', str_pdf_file_name],env=os.environ,stdout=PIPE)

但他们的输出没有变化。它仍然显示

'Cannot parse arguments: Cannot open display:'

任何建议可能是什么原因以及如何解决这个问题?

evince显然是一个拥有GUI的工具。您尝试从服务器进程内部打开它,通常无法与桌面/用户交互。在Linux上,它可能需要运行X服务器,这可能不是您服务器上的情况。这正是错误消息告诉你的内容。我想你必须重新考虑你的解决方案。

#   Fetch the pdf file from the server,  and keep it in the local matchine

            win32api.ShellExecute(0, "print", str_file_name, None, ".", 0)
        else:                # CAN'T PRINT IF OS IS LINUX, SO OPEN BY A VIEWER FROM WHICH HE CAN PRINT
            if sys.version_info[:2] > (2,3):
                import subprocess
                from subprocess import PIPE
                k = subprocess.Popen(['evince', str_file_name],stdout=PIPE)
                k.communicate()

            else:
                k = os.spawnlp(os.P_NOWAIT, 'evince', 'evince', str_file_name)
    except Exception,msg:
        print str(msg)
        msgDlg = gtk.MessageDialog(None, gtk.DIALOG_MODAL, gtk.MESSAGE_ERROR, gtk.BUTTONS_OK)
        msgDlg.set_markup("<span foreground='blue'>Printer Is Not Connected. And "+str(msg)+".</span>")
        msgDlg.run()
        msgDlg.destroy()      
    pass

这对我有用。 :-)希望对某人有帮助。
