      I can run the command:

      python3 /home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/pi/assistant.py

      as long as I first run:

      source /env/bin/activate

      It works appropriately after running those two commands. Running the top command in this post without running the bottom command results in an error.

        @poopyurinal ok, make a two line script to execute both commands, and use that script as the exec script in the service

          Sorry, can you go into a little more detail on that? How would I create that script?

            @poopyurinal edit a new file, add the two lines to it, and save.

            The do

            chmod +x ????
            

            Where ??? is the name of the file you just created

            Then make that file name the name of the exec script.

              Do you mean a shell script? Or a python script?

                  In the ExecStart field of the service, what is the command I need to run before the path? My shell script is in /home/pi/testerscript.sh. What command do I need to run that?

                    @poopyurinal edit the script again and add a new 1st line

                    #!/bin/sh
                    

                    Because it is executable, the 1st line will be checked, and if the script processor is defined, it will be used

                    The default is also /bin/sh

                      I edited the script as you suggested, but it is not starting after reboot. If I run it from the command line, I get:

                      pi@raspberrypi:~ $ /home/pi/testerscript.sh
                      /home/pi/testerscript.sh: 2: /home/pi/testerscript.sh: source: not found
                      Traceback (most recent call last):
                      File “/home/pi/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-GoogleAssistant/pi/assistant.py”, line 25, in
                      import google.oauth2.credentials
                      ImportError: No module named ‘google’

                      The part after the “Traceback” is the same error I got if I tried to run the /path/to/assistant.py without first running:

                      source /env/bin/activate

                      It seems like the shell script is not running the second command within the first. If I run source /env/bin/activate, my command line is preceded by (env). Is there some way to force that within the script?

                        @poopyurinal the shell script cannot find the command ‘source’.

                        so THAT is the 1st problem

                        try changing line 1 to

                        #!/bin/bash
                        

                        to use bash instead of sh
                        I see the same problem here using sh
