PC info

Describe the bug The application doesn't start: nothing happens when I click on it.

Additional context The currently installed version of Candle 1.1.7 works perfectly. I have other applications in AppImage format that also work perfectly.

mar0x commented 1 year ago

Hello, Please try to make downloaded appimage executable with chmod a+x Candle-1.1.9-x86_64.AppImage and start it from terminal session: ./Candle-1.1.9-x86_64.AppImage.

Then share output messages.

Hello marOx, I had already made the file executable, as always with AppImages, but I hadn't thought of launching it from the terminal. Here's the error message: qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem. What do you recommend to fix this problem?

Best regards.

I admit that image was incomplete. I've re-build and re-upload the Candle-1.1.9-x86_64.AppImage. Please download and try start it again.

Here's the return for this new version:

Well, I'll try to rebuild the image on ubuntu-18.04 to avoid use of recent versions API and let you know.

gitnaute commented 1 year ago

OK! Thank you very much for taking the trouble to try and solve this problem. So, if I understand correctly, an application in .AppImage format doesn't necessarily work on all systems and must therefore be adapted to the target system. I thought the whole point of this format was its portability.

Friendly.

mar0x commented 1 year ago

AppImage is a method to distribute and run binaries in custom environment. They have a requirements (or recommendations) to build images in old distributions for better compatibility. AppImage itself does not provide compatibility "magically" :)

Here is Candle-1.1.9-qt-5.9.5-x86_64.AppImage built on ubuntu-18.04.6. I hope it will be compatible with your runtime environment.

Candle-1.1.9-Linux-x86_64.AppImage should also work.

Wonderful: it works perfectly. Thank you so much for your work.

I'm well aware that none of this happens by magic. Some time ago, I went to look at the documentation on docs.appimage.org because I was thinking of creating AppImages for Candle and FlatCam. I quickly realized that I didn't have the right level of expertise. So once again, thank you very much.
