Problem with running webui-standalone.py
I have downloaded and unpacked "recoll-webui-master.zip" and I try to start the standalone version by running the command ./webui-standalone.py on a bash command line, but I receive the following output:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "./webui-standalone.py", line 4, in
I have just seen that a similar issue was posted long ago. The solution seems to have been to remove and reinstall python. I have python version 2.7.12 installed on my system. I would rather not remove it because I am afraid that this may lead to unwanted side effects. Is there another way to fix this?
sudo apt-get install python-recoll
Done ;)
Thank you. This solved my problem. At least, I no longer receive this error message. After sending the command, I get
:3:common/rclinit.cpp:308::Configuration directory: /home/eichner/.recoll Bottle server starting up (using WSGIRefServer())... Listening on http://localhost:8080/ Hit Ctrl-C to quit.
I expected that a user-interface would open next, but nothing happened for quite a long time. Do I need to channel the output into firefox somehow although this is the standalone version? Or is this a problem caused by a firewall?
This is a web-based user interface so you need to open it in a browser (the name "standalone" refers to using a built-in http server rather than nginx or apache).
Go to http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.
Also, Recoll itself needs to be configured before you can use the webui.
Thank you. This worked.
