1 month ago If I'm understanding this correctly, the stack trace is not where the error is. The logic only gets to that point if there is a previous failure. I could update it to avoid that specific error, but that doesn't solve whatever previous error tripped it up. Obviously, error handling failed us here.
Can you give me any more info about the environment? it would be helpful to reproduce

It's a desktop PC equipped with an Intel Core i7-13700K processor, 64 GB of RAM, a 1 TB SSD, and two 4 TB HDDs. I was performing a fresh installation on the SSD when the issue occurred. I can only reproduce this issue on this specific machine.

1 month ago So it looks like the VTE terminal exited after the post_run commands finished. The terminal in question runs asynchronously here. It's hard to debug without a reproducable environment.
To confirm, this is a completely unmodified install? Could you share the recipe located at /usr/share/org.vanillaos.FirstSetup/recipe.json?

}Could you try running the script located at /etc/org.vanillaos.FirstSetup.commands? That is the script being passed to the child process that's not exiting cleanly. If you aren't able to run that, could you at least share the contents?

1 month ago Once this build is done, you can try a fix by doing a custom install and using ghcr.io/jardon/desktop:dev as the URL.
It won't fix the issue with the script, but it may fix the error handling.
Edit: if you were to install from there, you would need to update your abroot.json afterwards as there is no guarantee what I put in my dev branch going forward :)

4 weeks ago Since we don't have a way to reproduce this, I'm going to close this issue for the time being. If you end up doing a reinstall or if someone else runs into the same issue, we can repoen this and move forward.
After a fresh install, the First Setup fails to complete, resulting in an indefinite installation process.
The following error messages were found in
journalctl:
