I got garbled characters in the command output.
Common reasons:
The command entered is not UTF-8 encoded.
The command outputs non-UTF8 characters. For example, if the command is
tail -n4 /usr/bin/ls, the output of the command is in garbled characters.What’s the default installation path of the TAT agent?
The default installation path is
/usr/local/qcloud/tat_agent/.How can I check the status of TAT agent?
Two approaches are provided:
Log in to the instance, and execute
cd /usr/local/qcloud/tat_agent/log/. You can check the running logs of the agent.Log in to the instance, and execute
ps -ef | grep tat_agent to check the process status. If the process does not exist, execute /usr/local/qcloud/tat_agent/tat_agent to start the process or reinstall the TAT agent.How can I install the TAT agent?
I tried to execute a command in the console, but got the error message saying that the TAT agent was not installed.
It means that the TAT agent is not correctly installed in the instance. Please re-install the agent as instructed in Installing TAT Agent.
I can run the script in my local machine. But when I run it in TAT, it says “command not found”.
It may be caused by the configuration of PATH environment variables. Please use an absolute path to execute the command, or make sure that the command path is in the PATH environment variable. For example, you can replace
python3 test.py with /usr/local/bin/python3 test.py.How can I uninstall the TAT agent?
