Error when running script

[ustoopia]

Hi. I know this repo is a couple of years old. But I still wanted to try if it works, since it would be an ideal solution for me. Unfortunately, I get the following error message when I run the script. I did successfully install the requirements before.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/nginx-rtmp-auth/rtmpauth.py", line 11, in <module>
    hostPort = config.getint('main', 'bind_to_port')
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/configparser.py", line 820, in getint
    return self._get_conv(section, option, int, raw=raw, vars=vars,
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/configparser.py", line 810, in _get_conv
    return self._get(section, conv, option, raw=raw, vars=vars,
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/configparser.py", line 805, in _get
    return conv(self.get(section, option, **kwargs))
ValueError: invalid literal for int() with base 10: '88 # Port to bind to'

I'm using Python 3.10.12 on Ubuntu 22.04

Maybe a config file issue. Check the port number is an integer not a string.

How do I check that?
I haven't touched the config file. It says port 88.

Try removing the comments from the INI file (as done here 94ea678)

Configparser can't parse ini comments, so it was causing it to break.

Right! That indeed did the trick. I somehow feel that I should have known this, if I had even a bit of knowledge on coding. But since I don't, I just want to thank you very much for explaining it to me.
