Sv: rkward-devel Digest, Vol 86, Issue 12

[Anders Fridberger]

Hello
When I try restarting the backend, I get a warning dialog box saying "One or more operations are pending. How do you want to proceed?". So I told the program I want to force a restart of the backend, but then the GUI dies and I'm back at the command line.
Logs attached

Thanks.



It remains a bit of a mystery, but maybe we are slowly closing in.



The regular startup proceedure involves:



1) frontend creates a QLocalServer (i.e. domain socket)

2) frontend invokes the backend executable

3) backend generates a verification token and sends it via stdout

4) backend connects to the socket, and sends the same token again via

that connection (to prove it's the called process that is connecting)

5) frontend reads the verification token from stdin <- THIS NEVER

HAPPENS

6) frontend receives the incoming connection, compares the tokens

received, and closes the server <- never reached, because frontend is

stuck at step 5



Some experiments to try:



- Run with --debug-level 5, once more. To make sure, we have a complete

  picture.

- Click "Cancel" in the startup dialog, and wait a bit longer. Does an

  error message pop up?

- Now select "Restart backend" from the hamburger menu in the bottom

  right corner. Does the backend start up on this second attempt?



Regards

Thomas
