Re: desktop file not appearing

2017-01-23 Thread Michael Hall
Hi Fabio, Most likely the problem is in your .desktop file's Exec= line. This should point to the executable name in /snap/bin/ which, looking at your snapcraft.yaml, would be fcole90-hexgl-webapp.hexgl-webapp If you change it to: Exec=fcole90-hexgl-webapp.hexgl-webapp It should work. Michael

Assuming the daemon's snap package is called feedreader-daemon and it has an app of the same name, you can call it using either of these: /snap/bin/feedreader-daemon or snap run feedreader-daemon That will work regardless of what revision feedreader and feedreader-daemon are. -- Michael Hall
