cant get past online demo and hexya updatedb for local demo is failing for me

[githubfanster]

i'm trying to get hexya-demo going in a windows 10 desktop environment but i've failed 4 times already.

i'm basically following what was discussed in https://github.com/hexya-erp/hexya/issues/112, except that i noticed that hexya-demo was updated dec 22, 2019 (the issue was posted november), and according to the go.mod file, it seems i have to use github.com/hexya-erp/hexya v0.0.43

of the 4 times i've tried, my first try reported errors similar to those reported in https://github.com/hexya-erp/hexya/issues/112. but i was using hexya v0.0.41 then.

after i switched to hexya v0.0.43, hexya updatedb -o -c ./hexya.toml always fails silently. (nothing printed in console)

before i start again, i make sure i start in a CLEAN environment (uninstall golang, delete various folders) but to no avail.

i notice that even the online demo is not working (i cant get past the login process).

any suggestion on what to do next?

should i just wait until perhaps a future update?

thanks!

Thanks for your interest in Hexya. It is indeed difficult for me to keep all module versions compatible as there are a lot of changes in the API.

Basically, keeping all modules with the same version number should work most of the time. Another option is to pull master branch (or dev branch if you are bolder) on all modules and add "replace" directive in the go.mod to use the local copy of each module.

Testing the web module only has more chance to work, because that is where most work is done today. Module dependency tree is github.com/hexya-addons/web => github.com/hexya-addons/base => github.com/hexya-erp/hexya

Finally,

• I work on Linux, so there may be specific issues with Windows (I have found out that hexya generate needs to be run as admin).
• I'm not sure the -c flag actually works. I had issues at some time. Just run the hexya updatedb -o in the directory where hexya.toml is.
• Compiling Hexya takes a lot of RAM (~ 8GB) because of all the generated code and hexya updatedb does a compilation.

I've reset the demo password too.

It seems you're facing challenges with setting up hexya-demo on Windows 10. Since the online demo is also having login issues, there might be a broader concern. Consider checking the project's GitHub repository for recent updates, issues, or community discussions. You can also try reaching out to the Hexya community for support or wait for potential updates that might address these issues. Patience is key! Good luck, and I hope your Hexya experience improves Slide Share Downloader.

Have you tried checking the log files for any specific errors during the updatedb process or check the grinch outfit. Sometimes they give clues on what might be going wrong.

Have you tried checking the documentation or reaching out to the squishmallow halloween or the support team? They might be able to assist with the demo issues.

I had a similar issue with updating the local demo. Have you tried checking your internet connection or Futbol Libre TV restarting Hexya.
