WPE Kiosk booting to black screen #22

Closed jcrapsey closed 3 years ago

jcrapsey commented 3 years ago

I followed the tutorial for the WPE Kiosk and my Raspberry PI 4 is booting to a black screen. After a bit of debugging I noticed that cog was failing to start with the following error.

cog: error while loading shared libraries: libicudata.so.67: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It looks like icu was updated to 68 recently.

did you use bash <(curl -s https://archibold.io/kiosk/pi/wpe) ?

in any case, I am abroad and I don't have my Pi with me, so if you find the culprit, PR welcome.

jcrapsey commented 3 years ago

Yes I did, It looks like I may have to recompile either cog or wpe with the new version of libicu (those were the closest solutions to this problem while searching). I'll update if I make any progress.

WebReflection commented 3 years ago

the script compiles already cog and wpe, if I remember correctly, but yeah ... if you find any solution, it'd be great.

I was waiting for wpewebkit 2.32 to go out, as it takes forever to build it on the Pi, but I see 2.30.4 has been published, and maybe that fixed this issue you are having: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wpewebkit

still, until I'm back home, I can't do much, sorry.

I was able to compile wpewebkit 2.30.4 on my raspberry pi and it works! Looks like wpewebkit-bin needs to be updated to this version to support libicu 68

tomorrow I'll fly back home and by Monday evening I should be able to have it built and updated, thanks for confirming 👋

2.30.4 is up ... I hope running too
