Clight not updating gui?

[cliffhanger54]

Hi

I know you're not responsible for Clight-gui but I have installed this on two systems now and all options are greyed out. Clight is running ok on both systems, but I have nothing in the gui. Is Clight reponsible in anyway?

Thanks

Cliff

Hi! The only thing coming up in my mind is that perhaps Clight is not creating the user dbus interface? You can double check with busctl --user introspect org.clight.clight /org/clight/clight

Thanks!

Thanks for that I'm getting:

Failed to introspect object /org/clight/clight of service org.clight.clight: Process org.clight.clight exited with status 1

Looks like answer?

I think so :) Can you share your Clight log in verbose mode?

[cliffhanger54]

Thanks. It's not outputing a log file. I've looked in compilation there are no options there.

[FedeDP]

You can find the verbose option in Clight conf file (by default /etc/default/clight.conf). Clight log is instead in $HOME/.local/share/clight/clight.log :)

So I can take it that the config file shows nothing unusual

My service file in docx form: org.clight.clight.docx

Sorry for long time without answer!

clight.log

yeah got it

This shows interface is actually up!

I see that you are starting Clight from an user systemd service, right? Perhaps Clight is starting before your dbus user session is up? To quickly test that the issue comes from that, you can try to stop the Clight unit and manually start it. If then clight-gui gets updated, for me the issue lies in the systemd service :)

ThanksI have a feeling this may have something to do with the Wayland windowing system. Some packages just don't run properly yet.

Mmh @cliffhanger54 i do not understand your latest message; perhaps something went wrong while sending it?

Hi! Any news on this topic? Were you able to solve this? :)

[cliffhanger54]

Sorry the gui never worked. I can only assume that Wayland is the problem. CliffSent from my Huawei Mobile-------- Original Message --------Subject: Re: [FedeDP/Clight] Clight not updating gui?

So sad to hear that :disappointed: It seems like something is preventing Clight to create the dbus interface; i think there might be some misconfiguration somewhere in your startup flow but it's hard to tell what it is. I will close this one because it seems not inherently linked to Clight (neither Clight-gui) but more of a system issue. Feel free to reopen if you have new information!
