Errno 13 Permission denied in django-wkhtmltopdf

I use django-wkhtmltopdf to generate PDF documents. I described a clear path to the django-wkhtmltopdf.

WKHTMLTOPDF_CMD = '/home/vagrant/envs/vagrant/lib/python2.7/site-packages/wkhtmltopdf'

I get the error:

[Errno 13] Permission denied

Permissions in the path to the django-wkhtmltopdf:

drwxrwxr-x 3 vagrant vagrant Feb 17, 4096 7:32 wkhtmltopdf
Solution

  • You need to install wkhtmltopdf itself, and specify the path to the binary (either in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin).
