WIndows 11: PyRoll-run gets stuck in an endless loop due to problems with kaleido package #195

Closed GRPlan closed 6 months ago

GRPlan commented 7 months ago

Summary

After the update to Windows 11 PyRoll run got stuck in an endless loop.

Problem is caused by the kaleido package.

See https://github.com/plotly/Kaleido/issues/126 Plotly fig.to_image is stucking on windows 11. #126

Downgrading the kaleidoversion to kaleido==0.1.0post1 via pip worked for me.

@axtimhaus didn't we already fix that problem before Meform? I don't have a Windows laptop at hand so I'm unable to reproduce that problem?

@RichardPfr ready for you first issue?

axtimhaus commented 7 months ago

No we did not fix this.

RichardPfr commented 7 months ago

On my Windows 11 machine I do get the same issue when using the newest kaleido version and downgrading it to kaleido==0.1.0.post1 does also fix it for me.

As this is a Problem specifically with either Windows 11 or the newest kaleido version I don't think there is much we can do besides requiring the use of the older kaleido version on all Windows 11 machines.

The comments in the kaleido issue given by @GRPlan hint at the same issue and as there have been no updates to kaleido in almost three years this is unlikely to be fixed.

Is there maybe an option on our side to check if this kaleido version is installed to only then use plotly and otherwise fall back on using matplotlib?

Your on the right track so create a branch from that issue and think of way to resolve this problem.
