Error while typing text #766

Closed hectorBouvier closed 2 years ago

hectorBouvier commented 2 years ago

Using Matterhorn, each time I type a letter in a message, I get :

An unexpected error has occurred! The exception encountered was:
  fd:19: hGetLine: invalid argument (invalid byte sequence)
Please report this error at https://github.com/matterhorn-chat/matterhorn/issues

This happen on a snap installation of matterhorn, Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS, connecting to a Mattermost 6.5.0 server.

This doesn't prevent from sending/receiving messages, it's just annoying that a pile of error messages pollutes the channels

Hi @hectorBouvier, thanks for reporting this. Which version of matterhorn is this happening on? If it's happening on the latest release, did it also happen on the prior release?

hectorBouvier commented 2 years ago

Hi @jtdaugherty, The version I'm using is the 50200.15.0 (develop@1257178). This is my first installation of Matterhorn, so I don't know how other versions behave.

EDIT According to the change log, an option might be available to "fix" that by stopping typing notification in version 50200.16.0. Yet, it is still a bug, and version 16 is not available with snap.

EDIT once more I did try by manually installing v16, no bugs anymore

@hectorBouvier it's good to hear that 50200.16.0 resolved the issue for you. This makes me wonder whether the bug is specific to the Snap version of Matterhorn (which is not officially supported). I don't know how Snap packages work, but I'd be curious to know whether you run into this again once 50200.16.0 becomes available via Snap.

@jtdaugherty I did manually installed the version 15, no bugs. So snap related I guess
