Wrong version of the Launcher? Or is something else wrong? #12

Closed bhaugen closed 2 years ago

bhaugen commented 2 years ago

I've tried 0.7.0 and 0.6.0. Both say installation failed.

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04.6, if that matters, but I successfully ran We once before on this computer.

Did you try to install it from the file system via the devhub (app library)? If it's the latter it could just be a gossiping issue and it may work if you let the launcher run for a while in the background (see this issue https://github.com/holochain/launcher/issues/64). If you tried to install it from the file system, then I would ask which version of We you tried to install? The latest one you may download here: https://github.com/lightningrodlabs/we/releases/tag/v0.0.6

@matthme thanks for the quick response.

I tried to install it by selecting it from apps listed by the launcher.

Start the launcher, +INSTALL NEW APP App Library We 0.0.6 INSTALL Downloading... App download failed. Try again later.

Re https://github.com/holochain/launcher/issues/64 "App download failed", I've had the launcher up and running for at least an hour. I'll wait more and then try again, unless you mean something else by "run in background"...

Okay...yes that's what I meant by running it in the background. Although to make sure you may also restart it once in case the holochain process would have silently got stuck in the background, which has happened to me in the past. Otherwise there is unfortunately not much we can do regarding the failing download because it's a problem in holochain itself at the moment, neither We nor the launcher. But you can also just download the latest release as a .webhapp file and choose "install from file system".

I'll try again tomorrow and give it enough time. A couple of questions until then.

But you can also just download the latest release as a .webhapp file and choose "install from file system".

I don't see a .webhapp download at https://github.com/lightningrodlabs/we Looks like nix/npm etc. Did I miss something?

But assuming I want to us the version that is offered by the launcher, which launcher version should I use? (And I will be very patient...)

I put the link directly to the release with the .webhapp file in my first comment above. Otherwise you can always find releases of a github repository (if available) via the main page of a repository by looking for „Releases“ on the right side and then clicking on „tags“ and from there select (usually) the latest one. Regarding the version of the Launcher, both 0.6.0 and 0.7.0 will work. Once you install it, you should choose Holochain version 0.0.162 in the install dialog in the Launcher for this release.

I must have been a little slow that day, but I did not understand what to do then. I did understand today and got it done.

So I have We up and running! Yay! And thank you very much for your help!
