Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE keyUnable to init server

[deisi]

I get the following Issue when I try to open e.g. a pdf from dired with !evince

Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keyUnable to init server: Could not connect: Connection refused
Cannot parse arguments: Cannot open display: 

Emacs Version: 26.2

Spacemacs: Git develop 1aa0af260ead9a7dfb8b84ea6246a4773bcf7eaa

environment variable of DISPLAY is set:

env | grep DISPLAY
DISPLAY=:1

If I run emacs with emacs -Q I it works. The issue popped up after updating from a really old spacemacs version and config. Sadly I don't know what version exactly.

I use the same config on another machine and don't have the issue. Both run gnome3 with arch linux. I'm out of Ideas. Anybody has a suggestion?

I haven't used arch linux, but when I searched for the error message, then these arch linux threads that are marked as [Solved] appeared: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=230828 https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=206743

If you haven't read them already, then they might have some useful information.

Okay, I must admit, that I didn't find them sry, but on the other hand, they hop on the DISPLAY thing I wrote about and that I had checked. However, I found out, that something in emacs is overwriting this display variable and sets it wrognly.

So i my normal shell I have:

malte@pcbonn29:~$ env | grep DISPLAY
DISPLAY=:1

But when I open spacemacs and then open a shell with: M-x shell I get

malte@pcbonn29:~$ env | grep DISPLAY
WAYLAND_DISPLAY=wayland-0
DISPLAY=:0

And thus it doesn't work any more. I tried setting the variable within the emacs.desktop file with:

Exec=env DISPLAY=:1 emacs %F

but I still get the same. So something overwrites this when I start emacs with spacemacs. Just to double check, I started emacs from the .desktop file with adding -Q and then the DISPLAY is correctly set.

I now changed the variable during runtime with: setenv from within emacs and then it works again. So I have a workaround, but I still wonder how and why spacemacs/myconfig changes it.

I think DISPLAY=:1 is very uncommon, so can it be that it really is a bug. Maybe spacemacs always sets it to DISPLAY=:0 and ignores the env. Because DISPLAY=:0 is correct for 99.9% of the people they have no problem.

This is what I'm seeing on the latest develop branch with updated packages.

It's not arch linux, but it might be a useful data point.

env | grep DISPLAY shows:

• Ubuntu 18.04.02, both in the terminal and in Spacemacs M-x shell: DISPLAY=:0
• Windows 10 version 1803
  • At the command prompt it returns nothing, because there's no entry starting with: DISPLAY
  • Spacemacs M-x shell shows: DISPLAY=w32

The .spacemacs.env file (it can be opened in Spacemacs with SPC f e e) shows:

• DISPLAY=:0 in Ubuntu
• DISPLAY=w32 in Windows 10

Ah this is extremely useful, thank you so much, so I think I know what happened. When I installed spacemacs I was using DISPLAY=:0. After some time, I changed stuff on my arch linux box, I installed and deinstalled nvidida drivers and stuff. During this process, DISPLAY became :1. I actually don't know why, but okay.

So I guess this is a wont fix, because this problem is a result of the buffering of env variables that spacemacs does. I guess it is for performance reasons. The only way of preventing somebody experiencing the same might be to improve the documentation about this env buffer. I didn't know it and while I was googeling all sorts of spacemacs and DISPLAY things I never came across this.

[thanhvg]

Adding a me too so google search will catch this. My DISPLAY was changed to :1 also but Spacemacs always sets DISPLAY to :0 even on recreation.

This makes restart-emacs package fail to restart GUI Spacemacs (SPC q r or SPC q R...). It can restart spacemacs in terminal though.

Set DISPLAY=:1 in spacemacs.env fixed this problem.

Thanks
