'Conky/Dzen2 Clickable Areas

I'm trying for the first time to use dzen on my setup, then on the Arch Wiki I came up with the section about clickable areas, to pipe the command into conky and then when I click the text on conky the dzen2 script would show up.

But the command on conky simply doesn't work. I tried writing every way but it doesn't. The wiki says the following:

Save this script and make it executable and then use the ^ca() attribute in your conkyrc (or the script that you pipe to dzen2) to trigger it.

^ca(1,)Sysinfo^ca()

But it does nothing. When I replace the path to my script it just shows this command in form of a conky text. If I execute my script on terminal it runs correctly, but this command on conky does nothing at all.

I had the same problem. In my case it was caused by installing it from some fork (actually, it's first page that is searched by google under dzen2).

Installing from robm github made it work.
