This line 'compton --config ' .. filesystem.get_configuration_dir() .. '/configuration/compton.conf', in my ~/.config/awesome/configuration/appls.lua.txt is not able to run compton at the startup

apps.lua.txt

Hi @Shivsharma779

Does ~/.config/awesome/configuration/compton.conf exist for you?

Try running the following in the terminal:

compton --config ~/.config/awesome/configuration/compton.conf

Is there any output from that command? errors etc?

I'm running this on a freshly git cloned copy of this repo, so my compton.conf is same as what is in this repo, and it's working fine for me.

compton is either not installed, not in your $PATH or you changed something in your config to make it not launch or your compton.conf does not exist.

Closing this as the issue is for the awesome4.3-stable build
