That did the trick.
Thank you so much.

Your error says it can't import libpython3.7m.so <http://libpython3.7m.so/> the Python language system library. That suggests that you ran your test.py script in a strange way. A few ways to run your Python script are
$ chimerax test.py
Don't start a graphical user interface.
$ chimerax --nogui.py
Start ChimeraX and after it starts use a ChimeraX command to open the script
$ chimerax ChimeraX command "open test.py"

Good morning,
I am currently trying to create a python script that hides atoms and shows ribbons in a .pdb file.
However, I am getting an error while trying to initialize a session. I've been trying to debug the problem to the best of my ability, but I am unable to figure out the issue.
My code: ``` import chimerax.core.session as cxsession session = cxsession.Session('name') ```
My error: ``` File "./test.py", line 15, in <module> session = cxsession.Session('name') File "/opt/UCSF/ChimeraX/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/core/session.py", line 437, in __init__ self.app_name = app_name File "/opt/UCSF/ChimeraX/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/core/session.py", line 508, in __setattr__ if not name.startswith('_') and self.snapshot_methods(value, base_type=StateManager) is not None: File "/opt/UCSF/ChimeraX/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/core/session.py", line 535, in snapshot_methods from .serialize import PRIMITIVE_TYPES File "/opt/UCSF/ChimeraX/lib/python3.7/site-packages/chimerax/core/serialize.py", line 42, in <module> from ._serialize import msgpack_serialize_stream, msgpack_deserialize_stream, PRIMITIVE_TYPES ImportError: libpython3.7m.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ```
I look forward to your assistance.
Best, Alexander
