First Time User; No GUI; Diagnostic Build "FileNotFoundError" #185

Closed alphasig271 closed 3 years ago

Hi,

I am lost in how to bring EDScout to run, meaning to show the GUI.

I've Google Chrome installed and PyCharm Community 2020.1.2.

When installing EDScout using the "Setup-EdScout-1.8.2.0.exe" and run the installed exe, nothing happened.

When installing the Diagnostic Build I get following error:

Exception in thread Thread-2: Traceback (most recent call last): File "threading.py", line 926, in _bootstrap_inner File "threading.py", line 870, in run File "flaskwebgui.py", line 206, in open_browser File "subprocess.py", line 800, in init File "subprocess.py", line 1207, in _execute_child FileNotFoundError: [WinError 2] The system cannot find the file specified

The Logfile: 2021-04-18T21:01:51.342Z - EDScoutWebUI-EDScout - INFO - ED Scout v1.8.2 Starting 2021-04-18T21:01:51.857Z - EDScoutWebUI-EDScout - INFO - Looking for HUD overrides in C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Graphics\GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml 2021-04-18T21:01:51.858Z - EDScoutWebUI-EDScout - INFO - Successfully remapped styles to match Elite HUD

When I'm creating a route in Galaxy Map, there are then route data entries in the log file and they seem "normal" to me.

What I'm doing wrong?

Thx in advance!

Regards, Andreas

You don't need PyCharm installed to run EDScout.

Looks to me like EDscout is failing to find your Chrome browser. Someone had a problem like this before and IIRC they solved it by uninstalling then reinstalling chrome.

Hi,

Thx for your reply.

I didn't install PyCharm for EDScout. It's installed because my son need for learning Python and I just wanted to mention it.

Yes, uninstalling and reinstalling chrome solved this issue.

Thx again!

No worries. Should be no problem running pycharm on the same system. I do the same 😊
