Couldn't connect to the Wayland compositor #37

Closed LGDHuaOPER closed 1 year ago

LGDHuaOPER commented 1 year ago

I exec that cmd:

WAYLAND_DEBUG=1 wl-copy whatever-you-were-doing

But got error:

Error: Couldn't connect to the Wayland compositor
Caused by:
    Could not find a listening wayland compositor.

I have install sudo apt-get install libwayland-dev and set export XDG_RUNTIME_DIR="$HOME/.wl-clipboard/temp". Why this?

My OS is:

PS C:\Users\HuaFEEng> wsl --list -v
NAME                   STATE           VERSION
* Ubuntu-20.04           Running         2   

huafeeng@Hua-Lenovo-DT:~$ uname -a

Thanks!

Hey, as @bugaevc mentioned in https://github.com/bugaevc/wl-clipboard/issues/179, you need to be running a Wayland compositor for wl-clipboard to work :)
