Automated tutorial creation on Windows (running eD in test mode) fails (never finishes) #90

Closed rozyczko closed 2 years ago

installed easyDiffraction_Windows_x86-32_v0.8.0-beta.1.exe to default location
ran poetry run python tools\Scripts\RunApp.py --testmode from a build distribution (branch updater)
the test run succeeded

Will have a look at the github runner

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/64813927/how-do-i-start-a-windows-gui-app-with-a-github-self-hosted-action-runner seems vaguely relevant.

Due to Windows session isolation, your user account can only see applications in its logon session, but not applications in other users' sessions (the GitHub action agent runs in just another session if you installed it as a service)

On the other hand, running RunApp.py happens in the same process/instance as the build.

This used to work before, stopped at some point recently. Additionally, easyReflectometry tutorial generation works well on GH runners

potentially: comment out the windows icon?

AndrewSazonov commented 3 years ago

Commenting out the windows icon in main.py doesn't help.

rozyczko commented 3 years ago

Fixed by ensuring enough time for the operations and that the calculators are packaged...

fixed and merged
