Puppy Linux Error code: R-0x7F on Start Now

J

Hey guys, 
i3 2015, 4GB ram Asus 15’ laptop, Puppy Linux on 64GB USB + Internal Hard Drive.
About three - four weeks ago I started getting the ‘Error code: R-0x7F’ when hitting ‘Start Now’.
I figure a missing dependency, but the libs are there, just not being read right(?). Running the appimage from terminal with --no-sandbox and here’s the readout.
root# /mnt/home/Shadow.AppImage --no-sandbox /tmp/.mount_ShadowHAsgtO/shadow: /lib/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /tmp/.mount_ShadowHAsgtO/shadow) /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp/.mount_ShadowHAsgtO/shadow: /lib/libdbus-1.so.3: no version information available (required by /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp/.mount_ShadowHAsgtO/shadow) Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf", line 86: unknown element "blank" Checking for update Update for version 5.0.638 is not available (latest version: 5.0.638, downgrade is disallowed). This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). The promise rejected with the reason: Error: Unknown or unsupported transport 'disabled' for address 'disabled:'

As one could figure, being able to run from the ‘lowest’ resources is definitely what I’m after.

Well, i don’t know about a solution but i ran into the exact same error on my system.

I’m using Fedora 32.

I tried however on an ubuntu machine (a second PC i have) there it’s working (at least the desktop is, i haven’t tried gaming yet).

I was under the impression that using an AppImage would make the launcher platform independent (or at least distro independent), i guess not.

Hi,

 

I had the same problem.

For me it was enough to install the package “libva-glx2”.

As it is here under Ubuntu
I hope I could help you and others.

 

Sorry for my bad english.

Hi,
I had the same problem and after installing ‘libva-glx2’ now I can login but I have the screen black or red and the icons are flashing every often. I try to change the Resolution but still happening, is been a week already since that update before was working great.

I hope Shadow Team fix that. I love the account and I am sure they will find the solution soon.

Regards,

Based on what I’m seeing here (I installed libva-glx2) if you get this error ….you just have to give up and cancel the service as there is no solution?

Hey guys, thanks for reaching out to us!  Out of curiosity, can you guys try using this command line: "sudo apt install gconf2 libgles2-mesa libubsan0 libuv1 libva-glx2" 

 

We’ve heard that this has worked for some of our community members and want to see if it works for you guys too!

I tried “sudo apt install gconf2 libgles2-mesa libubsan0 libuv1 libva-glx2” and the command completed. I restarted and got the same error. I wish it just came as a deb or something as this appimage is utterly …...well it just doesn’t work at all for me.

Woohoo Linux is broken. I used linux because I like linux and if I need Windows I could use shadow. I guess I'll have to back to crappy windows. Yay. It's like going back to an old gf cause you're desperate. 😖

I wrote this on an empty stomach.

I have been getting the same R-0x7F error for about a week now. I installed the packages suggested by @BrittaneyFromShadow and that fixed it for me:

Hello,

I  can confirm the solution of Brittaney worked for me.

Thank you.

for everyone on random distros encountering error 0x7f: this exit code (127) means “command not found”. to find out which tool is missing, determine the pid of the shadow process and then run this command (as root):

exec strace -s 9999 -f -e trace=execve -p [pid of process]

this will trace all subprocesses launched. make the error happen and you will see the exit code 127 and before that info about what it tried to launch, in my case “nmcli” from NetworkManager, which i had not installed

I used this to find my parent shadow pid.

ps axfwwwwwl | rg shadow | awk '{print $3}' | sort -n | head -1

sudo strace -s 9999 -f -e trace=execve -p $(ps axfwwwwwl | rg shadow | awk '{print $3}' | sort -n | head -1)

Very confusing figuring out what it’s looking for though.

Hello,

In some cases, thanks to debug command, Shadow (Beta) in my case will require netstat.

So, from ubuntu : sudo apt install net-tools

Now, I see Shadow trying to have a look at my virtual network interfaces…

Need to continue my debug session.
