When I try to pylint a file by doing pylint fname.py
, I get the following error:
pylint.utils.UnknownMessage: No such message id E1608
. However, 'E1608' is certainly a valid message id; it says so on their website. What are some possible solutions?
The relevant section of my config file is:
[MESSAGES CONTROL]
disable=E1608

If you want to disable a message ID instead of a messages, you can do
disable-msg=E1608

It looks like you need
disable=old-octal-literal
The disable
flag takes a message, not a message ID, according to the docs. See here for the relevant documentation.
Alternatively, you can put # pylint: disable=old-octal-literal
at the top of the file in question if the config file is still giving you problems.
