Failed creating new xdo instance #1

Hi @nathanharper, everything ok?

I was trying to run your app and after installing everything needed, when typing the command:

./run_http.sh super_mario.smc

I come across the following errors:

Error: Can't open display: (null)

However, when opening the browser, a snes control appears and says that the status is online, but the zsnes emulator does not open together. Could you help me solve it? Your app is active in: http://35.247.254.102/

Thank you!

Hi, DQ318! Thanks for checking out the project.

I haven't tried to run this in a while, but from your error I'd assume that the problem is that you're trying to run this on OSX, and I apparently wrote these bash scripts targeting linux.

You should be able to get around this by patching the run_http.sh script to use open rather than xdg-open. When I have free time, I'll patch it to check the environment.

Let me know if you run into any other platform issues!

DQ318 commented 5 years ago

@nathanharper hi man!

Actually, I'm running the application on a UBUNTU 18.04 - 64bit, hosted on Google Cloud Plattaform. I had to allow access to 32 bits packages in the ubuntu, because the ZSNES package is only available for 32 bits, does it have any association?

nathanharper commented 5 years ago

@DQ318 that's odd, I thought that was a default install on ubuntu. do you see anything when you run which xdg-open? You might need to (re)install xdg-utils. I don't think the 32 bit package thing is a problem, but that's interesting to note.

@nathanharper

When I type: which xdg-open returns: /usr/bin/xdg-open

And running the command to start the app, the errors have changed a bit after reinstalling the XDG-UTILS package:

Use ZSNES -? for command line definitions.

If you check out that error, xdg-open is looking for a command line tool to launch a browser, but it can't find anything. I can't recall exactly how i set this up, but I imagine you'd get whatever browser you want's CLI executable by installing it via apt-get, so you may want to apt-get install chromium or something and see if that does the trick.

@nathanharper

Really ... Lack of attention from me, sorry man =D But even installing chromium and firefox, apparently the error persists.

Hmmm, it looks like the zsnes CLI command itself segfaulted. I'm not sure why it would do that, but it could be a problem with the ROM. What are you trying to open? I would suggest trying to run a couple ROMs from the command line (zsnes path/to/rom) to see if it's a faulty install or just your ROM.

nathanharper commented 5 years ago

I just did a little google research and it seems like this might be a result of the 32/64 bit confusion :/

I'm on my work macbook at the moment, but I'll do some troubleshooting when I get some time.
