Blank Space inside Matterfront window #84

Open asadpiz opened 8 years ago

asadpiz commented 8 years ago

Hi I am trying to find a simple front-end windows desktop app for mattermost and while I follow the steps mentioned in MatterFront (README.md). When I launch the app (npm run start) I just get a Window titled "Matterfront" and there is nothing inside the window (just blank space).

I am doing nothing fancy, I have a VM with a test team [/testteam] and in my config.json file I just add the following text:


{
  "teams": [{
    "url": "http://<url>:8065/testteam"
  }]
}

My system is Windows 7 x64

log

_Command Prompt: _mf

PS: I can use the compiled version of this app at: https://github.com/yuya-oc/electron-mattermost But I need the system tray icon notification feature which isn't available

Is you mattermost on an internal network, or are you behind a proxy?

asadpiz commented 8 years ago

Yes the mattermost server is in an internal network and the entire system is behind a proxy BUT:

  1. I have also tried running mattermost on a local VM and the app (when executed from host) gives the same problem.
  2. The precompiled app (electron-mattermost) works fine with our main mattermost server (which is in a DMZ).

Please refer to the command-line args section of the setup instructions. Please use the no-proxy-server option.
