Re: Eric7 crashes unexpectedly

2024-02-14 Thread Detlev Offenbach

Hi Patrick,

I just tested eric7 in my openSUSE 15.5 VM and have to report, that it 
works as expected. Therefore I think, that your issue is somehow related 
to your installation.


1. Did you install eric into a Python virtual environment as recommended 
by the eric installation instructions?


2. Please start eric in terminal window and check for error messages. On 
some systems Qt6 is reporting a missing package (libxcb-cursor0) without 
that it will stop. The installation instruction of the eric web site 
contain such a hint.


3. Check the directory ~/.eric7 for the presence of an error log. If 
such a log exists, please send it to me.


4. Try to start eric in a terminal with "eric7_ide --debug" and send the 
debug log file to be found in "~/.eric7" to me.


Hope these steps will help to solve your issue and you are able to enjoy 
eric7.


Regards, Detlev

Eric6 had the same issue and I've tried installing it on several 
different releases of OpenSuSE. Don't know if it's just an OpenSuSE 
thing. I haven't tried to install it on any other OS.

Re: Eric7 crashes unexpectedly

2024-02-14 Thread Patrick Headley

I did install eric7 into a virtual environment as directed.

I didn't check for error logs but the problem has been so consistent 
across multiple versions of OpenSuSE that I didn't care to investigate 
further. One thing that could be an issue is that I'm running Eric7 on 
VirtualBox virtual machines. Since I don't have problems with other 
applications I don't believe it's a VirtualBox issue but thought I would 
throw that out there.


If I get in the mood to test again I will look at the logs. But, for now 
I have uninstalled Eric7.

Hi Patrick,

I am sorry to hear, that you gave up. Nevertheless I installed a fresh 
openSUSE VirtualBox machine and got eric working in a Python virtual 
environment with one little issue not related to eric-ide. I had to 
update the 'pip' package of the environment because it was too old. 
Thereafter PyQt6 was installed without an issue and eric started and 
showed its initialization sequence.


Note: I installed openSUSE with the KDE Plasma desktop. Maybe that is 
different to your VM.

Re: Eric7 crashes unexpectedly

2024-02-15 Thread Patrick Headley

I use Gnome. I did update pip as the first step to installing eric7.

How long did you leave eric7 running? For me it ran for a period of time 
before crashing. Mostly, it would crash while it was idle when I was 
reading the documentation to learn how to use it, but not always.

Re: Eric7 crashes unexpectedly

2024-02-16 Thread Detlev Offenbach

Hi Patrick,

I created an openSUSE 15.5 virtual machine with the Gnome desktop and 
installed eric in a Python virtual environment. During this process I 
made these observations, which might be related to your issue.


1. openSUSE Leap 15.5 installs an outdated Python version by default
   (3.6.x).
2. Due to the fact, that Python 3.6 and 3.7 are no longer supported by
   eric-ide, the pip installation command for eric-ide installs an
   outdated version (22.3 dated March 2022, i.e. about two years old).
3. Due to the same fact, an outdated version of PyQt6 and Qt6 got
   installed.

Once I noticed that, I installed Python 3.11 using yast and recreated 
the Python virtual environment using that version. Installing eric-ide 
now installed the latest eric-ide version (24.2.1) together with PyQt6 
6.6.1 and Qt6 6.6.1. The only remaining issue with this is, that Qt 
requires q newer SSL library than is installed by default. That can be 
solved by installing 'libopenssl_3' using yast.


I hope these findings and correction steps will help you solve your issue.
