Reciprocal lattice viewer does not launch #74

Closed ndevenish closed 4 years ago

ndevenish commented 5 years ago

On all tutorial machines for the BCA summer school, running the tutorials with dui - none of the reciprocal lattice viewers launch.

dui loaded through module load ccp4-workshop Pressing the 'reciprocal lattice viewer' button outputs:

 running Popen>>> dials.reciprocal_lattice_viewer dials_files/2_reflections.pickle dials_files/2_datablock.json ,  True <<<

I seem to recall this being something to do with timeout/timing and/or process tree stuff - there was a problem with the way processes were launched. I remember this being a problem at the 2018 DLS workshop and I think we fixed it, though I can't find the commit that did so.
