broo stuck on initializing

I tried running this on ubuntu 22 LTS but broo is stuck on initializing.

So something is already running on port 64738. Check if you did not open multiple instances of mumble-server.

You can kill processes with:

$ broo -q  # If broo is running
$ sudo pkill -9 -f mumble  # Kills mumble and mumble-server

Alternate way is to just restart your machine (not the Linux style but ok).

Ping. Will close issue after 7 days if no reply.

@ErfanBahramali In your case, it seems like the client isn't joining. Did you setup correctly, maybe it is prompting for certificate?

You can use p option and generate certificate, and then try again.

@ErfanBahramali On mobile it is failing because you're specifying localhost IP. Localhost for mobile is the mobile itself. You need to give the computer's IP (which Broo shows at the end, but since it is being stuck, it did not reach that point).

The script is stuck because the script expects a message in the log (hence you see tail in the task manager), which happens when the mumble client on PC connects to the mumble server. See line 70.

Can you tell your Mumble version? Also, can you try the setup again and this time installing from source?

Here is my mumble_client.out for reference.

[siddhpant]

Oh of course, the murmur log says it is 1.5. So it should ideally work. The script was made earlier, and I'm on 1.6 right now and it still works.

Run mumble-server -ini ~/.config/broo/murmur.ini in one terminal.

In another terminal, run mumble "mumble://127.0.0.1" --verbose.

What do you observe?

---

Also, if you didn't install from an APT repo, reinstalling from source won't hurt. Maybe picked up a bug?

[ErfanBahramali]

[siddhpant]

Damn.

Try the following commands one by one (in place of the mumble command as mentioned earlier). Do you get similar output? (That ServerHandler line is the key)

$ mumble "mumble://127.0.0.1" -platform offscreen

$ mumble "mumble://127.0.0.1" --verbose -platform offscreen

[ErfanBahramali]

[siddhpant]

Damn wth, this is weird!

Does updating to mumble from master branch solve it? The setup script can install from upstream repo for you. Please try that.

[siddhpant]

I was thinking about this. It'd be pretty weird for it to be a mumble bug. I used to use 1.5 too. Is this happening because of QT's offscreen platform unable to make the connection?

$ ldd /usr/local/bin/mumble | grep Qt
    libQt5Network.so.5 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Network.so.5 (0x00007f4b3cc55000)

Anyways, do try installing mumble from master.

[siddhpant]

NB: The author of the PR referenced above has the same problem (mumble not connecting offscreen).

[siddhpant]

Back to this.

The multiple warning messages This plugin does not support propagateSizeHints() at the end when using -platform offscreen might indicate something. I have only one.

[siddhpant]

If anyone is comfortable with programming and faces this issue, please comment here if you can help. CC: @ernesto-glz

If this last ditch effort fails (highly likely tbh), I'll go ahead and add testing during setup in order to disable offscreen for those who don't support.

This is a very weird bug in QT (which does not happen for me and many others), the offscreen may not be connecting to network in this case. While we are not QT devs, superficially examining it won't hurt, and this can serve as a record for other people which can potentially fix it.

---

In Mumble source code src/mumble/MainWindow.cpp, there is void MainWindow::customEvent(QEvent *evt) { and void MainWindow::openUrl(const QUrl &url) {. Does your application reach there?

(Sprinkle print statements in the function, like qWarning("Inside customEvent() 1");, compile with make -j`nproc` in the build directory, and check with ./mumble "mumble://127.0.0.1" -platform offscreen)

@siddhpant I have a new PC and this has never happened since I installed a new Fedora 38 on it. Anyway, I did the tests and those 2 events are being triggered and executed correctly but since I can't reproduce the problem this I don't think will be of much help.

[siddhpant]

@ernesto-glz cool, thanks!

[siddhpant]

Added a timeout test during setup. The command will timeout if it is stuck, so we configure it to show the GUI and not use the offscreen mode. This does cause the GUI to show up, but cannot be helped, as I cannot test the issue as I cannot reproduce it.
