terminalizer

terminalizer copied to clipboard

When doing the command:

terminalizer render example.yml

I receive this error:

Error: 
  Error: [31871:1208/233517.072099:ERROR:buffer_manager.cc(488)] [.DisplayCompositor]GL ERROR :GL_INVALID_OPERATION : glBufferData: <- error from previous GL command


Hint:
  Use the --help option to get help about the usage

Here is my OS info:

Linux 4.19.85-1-MANJARO x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm also running an AMD card with mesa 19.2.6-0.1

@cjayross resolve this?

I don't quite understand what I'm looking at here. Though, it seems it might actually be a result of my compositor? I have no idea.

I have the same problem. Does someone know how to fix this?

I've found a quick temporary solution.

1. You need find the folder where terminalizer have been installed. In my case it was - /home/barbossa/.nvm/versions/node/v10.13.0/lib/node_modules
2. Open terminalizer/render/index.js and before this line app.on('ready', createWindow); you need add new line: app.disableHardwareAcceleration();

After this edits, your file will be look like this:

// Hide the Dock for macOS
if (os.platform() == 'darwin') {
  app.dock.hide();
}

app.disableHardwareAcceleration(); // <-- new code line

// When the app is ready
app.on('ready', createWindow);

This option disabled GPU areacceleration, more info here https://electronjs.org/docs/api/app#appdisablehardwareacceleration.

But I think we should find more elegant solution

Thanks, this solved the error not happening. Now however render just hangs and does not do anything.

Seems like a lot of issues trying just trying to get this to work.

The tool requires a GUI os

@faressoft What do you mean a GUI OS? That's not a thing. I was having this issue using Manjaro which uses Xorg.

should be an option to desable hardware acceleration, don't you think? =)

Thanks @barbossa for this workaround. Works for me on Linux Ubuntu :+1:

The underlying issue is described here #102

And fixed on PR #97

Every time when I was switching my node environment using nvm had to do this again and again. I wrote a 1 liner and paste it on my terminal whenever I get this error. Just thought of putting it here as this is where google search puts us when we encounter this issue.

RENDER_FILE="$(which terminalizer | sed 's|/[^/]*$||')/../lib/node_modules/terminalizer/render/index.js"; grep -c disableHardwareAcceleration $RENDER_FILE || sed -i '32i app.disableHardwareAcceleration(); // <-- new code line' $RENDER_FILE

@Barbossa's fix worked on this issue for me, but now it's saying The display compositor is frequently crashing. Goodbye..

The issue appears to have been resolved and released in the new version v0.10.0 by #97. If you believe that there is still something missing or unresolved, please feel free to reopen it.
