@ajgonzales said in MM won't launch at startup, but will launch manually:

[35781:0511/163537.061675:ERROR:ozone_platform_x11.cc(244)] Missing X server or $DISPLAY

is 24.04 using wayland instead of x11??
do

ps -ef | grep -i way

is a terminal window

sdetweil

@ajgonzales I am downloading 24.04 now to test in vm…

@sdetweil
was logged in as a user, not root. got the same errors after running the fixuppm2 script and rebooting. here are the results from the other command. looks like it does use wayland:

@ajgonzales ok thanks.

sdetweil

@ajgonzales yep, I can recreate this… so far no hack fix has helped…

I now have my system where it won’t finish booting… pm2 is uninstalled…

so something is different between UBUNTU and RASPI OS
cause we don’t see this problem on raspi

ajgonzales

In case anyone else has this issue, I was able to able to get it to run via pm2 by running this command first:

xhost +si:localuser:[username]

Next steps are to figure out how to automatically run that command at startup prior to MM.

sdetweil

@ajgonzales add that to the launch script

you can find that by doing
pm2 status
then use the name or number of the row of the app

pm2 info x
where x is the name or number

can you give more info on the system?

lsb_release -a
uname -a

@sdetweil
I did try adding the command to the first line of the mm.sh script in the installers folder but that didn’t work. Here’s the sequence I run after rebooting, after which I have no issues.

pm2 stop 0
xhost +si:localuser:[username]
pm2 start 0

Here’s the output from those other two commands:

lsb_release -a

@ajgonzales yeh 24.04

pm2 has an issue on 24.04 during boot up. I opened an issue a couple weeks ago.

I think you are also running the new Wayland display manager…

to verify

ps -ef | grep wayfire

so x11 commands won’t work
