gowrite2 script only shows splash window

Post by GoInfluenchess »

Hi,

Sometimes (not always) when I use gowrite2 script to open gowrite, it shows the splash screen but nothing more happens and I can't see in the output if something went wrong because started as a background process. .gowrite script always works.

I checked my .gowrite folder and I don't see any log file to be able to know whats happening.

How can I "debug" this issue to know what is conflictive?

How are you starting gowrite?
from command line or thru some other means?

Some systems have had problems parsing %F in desktop definitions, this could be the problem.

Yep, from command line with

Code: Select all

~/Ocio/Baduk/gowrite $ ./gowrite2 
Right now I can't reproduce it again :(

I would expect the problem is somehow in gowrite2 script, it is a hack. It could fail multiple ways.
If you later find any patterns in failures, let me know.
