wslg: Can't open display: :0 + X11 server is not running #558

Open tan-yong-sheng opened 3 years ago

tan-yong-sheng commented 3 years ago

Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22000.282]
Your Distribution version: Ubuntu 20.04
Your WSLg version: 1.0.26

Steps to reproduce

Problem 1: Can't open display: :0

  1. Update WSL2 (through wsl --update in windows terminal) and before that make sure "Virtual Machine Platform", "Windows Hypervisor Platform" and "Windows Subsystem for Linux" are turned on in Windows Features.
  2. Install Intel GPU driver for WSL (Note: CsProcessors: {Intel(R) Celeron(R) N4000 CPU @ 1.10GHz}, Integrated GPU: {Intel(R) UHD Graphics 600} and no dedicated gpu)
  3. Run sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade in wsl terminal
  4. Install x11-apps
  5. Run xcalc or xeyes in windows terminal through wsl xeyes. (Note: when I run xeyes on wsl terminal, it just hangs for a long time and not show up any app)

Result: Error: Can't open display: :0

Problem 2: X11-server is not running

  1. Run ls /tmp/.X11-unix

Result: show no results, and thus suspect X11-server not running.

Expected behavior

GUI running without need of other third-party X11-servers such as Vcxsrv.

Actual behavior

Error: Can't open display: :0. Still needs Vcxsrv to open linux gui apps.

spronovo commented 3 years ago

Hello @tys203831. It looks like your DISPLAY environment variable is incorrectly set... it should be set to :0 and not 172.26.48.1:0.0, probably a remnant of Vcxsrv uninstall. You'll want to track down where in your startup script this is being overwritten.

tan-yong-sheng commented 3 years ago

@spronovo I have tried reinstalling wslg and also uninstall vcxsrv server of my machine. However, it still have same error "Error: Can't open display: :0".

Below is my .bashrc file: bashrc.txt (Note: I change the file extension name in order to be able upload to github)

I have a similar issue. It began when I updated the graphics driver on my system as encouraged by https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/wslg-architecture/#hardware-accelerated-opengl.

Details as requested on https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/wiki/Diagnosing-%22cannot-open-display%22-type-issues-with-WSLg#still-having-a-problem, starting a fresh launch of the container:

The socket is gone. I see the same "xserver crashing too fast" warning in @tys203831's report above. I see they also have a lower-end CPU -- mine is a Intel(R) Pentium(R) Silver N5000 CPU @ 1.10GHz.

Ignoring X for a moment, let's turn to Wayland. Some Wayland applications launch OK, such as weston-flower. But any application that attempts to use GL fails:

wjt@Simulant:/mnt/c/Users/wjt$ weston-subsurfaces
Illegal instruction

Inspecting with GDB, it's crashing inside the Intel graphics driver:

Program received signal SIGILL, Illegal instruction.
0x00007fffea4cf2d8 in ?? () from /usr/lib/wsl/drivers/iigd_dch.inf_amd64_bb614eb89871cffc/libigd12umd64.so

layout asm shows the offending instruction as vmovaps. Some web searches and pages like this suggests this is part of AVX. But this CPU does not support AVX:

If I force software rendering with LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true weston-subsurfaces then the problem does not occur. I have run out of time today but I will try applying this environment variable to the system-distro by following https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/wiki/WSLg-Configuration-Options-for-Debugging to see if that works around Xwayland crashing.

I am unsure whether /usr/lib/wsl/drivers/iigd_dch.inf_amd64_bb614eb89871cffc/libigd12umd64.so is provided by Intel, or whether it is a shim library provided by WSL. If the former, there may not be much WSLg can do here.

Yes, this works around the problem.

I am reliably informed that it is indeed provided by Intel, and is their Windows DirectX driver recompiled for Linux. I wonder if it does some CPU detection on Windows that is not supported on Linux? Perhaps I should be reporting this to Intel, but I don't know where. The WSLg team may have better contacts for this kind of thing.

Not sure if it helps anyone, but I had similar issue where wayland application (e.g. gedit) works but X11 application (e.g. xclock/xcalc/firefox/gimp) does not work.

It turns out that if you used your Linux distro before with VcXserv, even after uninstall it, it left something in your Linux distro's /tmp/.X11-unix folder. The trick is to simply remove this folder, and create a symbolic link to /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix, and everything work now for me.

sudo ln -s /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix /tmp/.X11-unix

My $Display wasn't set properly after setting up a fresh WSL Ubuntu container and installing some apps / updates.

Is WSLg packaged seperately from WSL or something? I can't find evidence of WSLg even existing following https://github.com/microsoft/wslg/wiki/Diagnosing-%22cannot-open-display%22-type-issues-with-WSLg#still-having-a-problem on windows 11, 22000.493

I ran into the exact same issue with X11 apps. This resolved it for me. Thanks @yanghao!

none of this helped. I had this working before until ubuntu reinstall. I get no windowed app displaying. I had chrome launch but wont maximize. Neither will Qemu. I see circular references with no socket in here. This is a fresh install on Windows 11

Repro Steps

  1. Create a task in Task Scheduler with the following properties: image image image

Expected Behavior

GUI apps (in my case emacs) should be able to open

Actual Behavior

GUI apps cannot open. In my case (emacs), following error returned:

whompyjaw commented 2 years ago

In case any body couldn't find the solution from any of the above (because none did for me)... I had a ~/.wslconfig file with some options set that was disabling forwarding (it was needed for W10), so mayyybe check if you added any extra config files. :)

Edit: Re-reading the title, I wanted to clarify, my solution did not fix the "Can't open display" error in the title. This fixed the error where calling an X app "started" but it went to a hang state and nothing happened.

And does env | grep -i display show DISPLAY=:0 [ and WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 ] by default after you removed your overriding of it in your ~/.bashrc customizations? That's what mine shows and i'm still having this issue.

I have a fresh install of win11 22h2, presumably the guaranteed to work starting point case, and for setup of wslg[ui] apps support i used the currently recommended wsl --install [ --distribution Ubuntu ] process.

I then rebooted and opened wslg using the Ubuntu on Windows shortcut and the windows terminal Ubuntu entry. Doing a uname -r outputs 5.15.57.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2 and head -n 2 /etc/os-release produces NAME="Ubuntu" \n VERSION="20.04.4 LTS (Focal Fossa)"

From there i did a sudo apt install x11-apps && xcacl or xeyes which produces the error output Error: Can't open display: :0. Tried sudo apt install gimp && gimp which produces the error output Cannot open display: .

Based on some other search hits i also tried running xfwm4 which produces the error output (xfwm4:693): Gtk-WARNING **: 18:44:27.098: cannot open display: :0 . Based on suggestions above, mentioned in other search hits as well, i tried running ls -alF /tmp/.X11-unix && sudo rm -r /tmp/.X11-unix which produces rm: cannot remove '/tmp/.X11-unix': Device or resource busy so that leaves me unable to try the next step that is supposed to follow that ln -s /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix /tmp/.X11-unix.

My ~/.bashrc is not making any modifications to default display environment variable settings such that env | grep -i display shows them as being WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0 and DISPLAY=:0 . I have no ~/.wslconfig file present as someone noted above. This is a fresh win11 22h2 install that has never had any 3rd party windows xserver or wsl Ubuntu xclient components installed .

I thought at this point in the game that a clean install wslg on a fresh repave of win11 21h2 and/or the very soon to be released win11 22h2 would support launching of gui apps with no special investigations and fixes required.

Am i overlooking some secret sauce or have i somehow installed a standard issue desktop app or made an OS configuration setting that creates a problem?

@myusrn

(if docker desktop is running, close that first)

sudo umount /tmp/.X11-unix
sudo rm -rf /tmp/.X11-unix
sudo ln -s /mnt/wslg/.X11-unix /tmp/.X11-unix

then open windows command prompt and restart WSL I did wsl --shutdown then restarted wsl by re-opening my wsl client

sacefe commented 2 years ago

in my case I saw the issue: Can't open display: :0
after the Security upgrade for Microsoft Windows (KB5017328) I remove it and worked OK Any possible solution in case I apply the windows upgrade again?

SamanthaAdrichem commented 2 years ago

After 2 days of working fine, the /tmp/.X11-unix folder is once again no longer a symlink, instead it's once again a freshly created folder. (docker also uses it, maybe it's race conditions?)

Probably has something to do with linux cleaning tmp files on restart as the internet says

In short, don't store something you want on next boot in /tmp. Store it elsewhere. Like /var/tmp. Or your $HOME.

saulens22 commented 2 years ago

In my case /tmp/.X11-unix was a folder too. I'm also using Docker Desktop.

I was able to fix it by adding guiApplications=false in .wslconfig, then wsl --shutdown, removing the line and wsl --shutdown again.

Share all the steps I follow for working after update with systemd and tempfiles.d

cynicalsubject commented 2 years ago

In my case, I am running 2 separate WSL2 distros. One of them worked fine, and the other was showing the errors mentioned here. It seems the display address for the 2nd WSL distro is actually ":1", not ":0". To know for sure, I used ls /tmp/.X11-unix:

ubuntu-wsl2 :: ~ » ls /tmp/.X11-unix
X1

X1 refers to ":1", so I simply set the DISPLAY variable to that.

export DISPLAY=:1

And it works fine now!

I am having this (or very similar) issue. WSLg used to work. I can't say if it stopped today or a week ago as I didn't use it for a while, and I did have an update of both Windows and drivers in meantime. I also had a bluescreen from wsl --shutdown couple of times. But I have RTX 3060 + 5800H laptop... so neither is Intel nor low end.

Thing is that if I start WSL and look for socket immediately, it's there. Sometimes xeyes even starts the app. But even with xeyes running I can't start eg. xcalc anymore, and xeyes would keep running until closed manually. But won't start after that either.

I don't have much in this WSL, so I will try to remove it completely and install from scratch, as all other suggestions failed.

I think I have found the issue with my setup. Well, part of it. I've reinstalled the distro, tried several restarts and stuff, and x11-apps worked until I installed one more app : apt-get install network-manager-gnome This pulled 450MB of dependencies, and until I finished session, everything worked, but after WSL restarted I started getting the display error again. Removing this package did not help fixing the bug, so I'm pretty sure it's one of (many) dependencies. Which one? I couldn't say.

I've opted to just not use this app, it was just for fun/test anyway, and if it breaks WSLg then it's on my blacklist.

Now, since this same dependancy could'vebeen pulled by any of apps people used in this thread, perhaps it's doable to cross-reference all the apps and dependencies to hunt it down. But I'll leave that to someone more interested in WSLg.

Edit: To clarify, I did reinstall again, and kept playing with Ubuntu and WSLg, all fine.. then this app, WSL shutdown, WSL start and - error.

Worked fine with no issues for me on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS, installed the package, closed terminal, opened again and GUI apps still work. Even tried running wsl --shutdown to see if that would cause it and after linux booted back up GUI apps still work

I had the same issue and fixed it by installing Intel Driver and Support Assistant. It installed an updated graphics driver and all is now working.
