I have a PyDev project that I would like to run in eclipse. However this program uses redis that apparently needs root access.

This is the error I get when running the app as user:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/krakend", line 12, in <module>
    from kraken.application import run_daemon
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/kraken/application.py", line 7, in <module>
    import messages
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/kraken/messages.py", line 6, in <module>
    from redis_storage import storage
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/kraken/redis_storage.py", line 172, in <module>
    storage = Storage()
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/kraken/redis_storage.py", line 9, in __init__
    self.connect()
  File "/home/vagrant/kraken/kraken/redis_storage.py", line 18, in connect
    raise ConnectionError("arkOS Redis: %s" % e)
arkos.utilities.errors.ConnectionError: Failed to connect to arkOS Redis: Error 13 connecting to unix socket: /tmp/arkos-redis.sock. Permission denied. service


So I was wondering if I could run this PyDev application as root in eclipse?

PyDev is a set of third-party plug-ins for Eclipse, but that aren't
supported by Eclipse. Like all third-party plug-ins, PyDev is supported
in non-Eclipse forums like stackoverflow.com. See pydev.org.

It's problematic running PyDev/Eclipse in root. You have to iron out the
windowing thing. So, in effect, it's not really an Eclipse or PyDev
problem per se, but one to sort out on your development host. You might
look at...

http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/46868/how-to-operate-as-root-in-gui

....to get started.

Best of luck.
