GUI won't show on GNOME 3

[aphotic]

Installed the app, it laoded up fine and I used it for a few days without issue. However I rebooted my machine last night and now the gui won't display. The application will run & without error. (loading from terminal with -d yeilds no errors while running just "haguichi" from command line yeilds no error output either.)

I just cannot get the application to display, I have checked both my desktops & GNOME Activities menu.

Only change I made before reboot was moving /var/log to tmpfs in my fstab.

Here's some debug output with personal information removed:

I have verified that the missing items are installed with apt-get install --reinstall after doing dpkg -S to determine what packages were missing files.

Tried running haguichi as root to see if it's a permissions issue and got this -

Update: Program is running in tray I am merely unable to bring up a window.

[Stephen Brandt (ztefn)]

If Haguichi is set to start in tray (via "Edit" -> "Preferences" -> "Start Haguichi minimized in the notification area") while you don't have any tray, you should normally still be able to bring it up by activating the launcher again (or executing "haguichi" in an other terminal window/tab). The new Haguichi instance will ask the running instance to show it's window and then exits (by using "haguichi -d" in the terminal you will see the message "There is already an active session, will try to show it and close this session").

It could possibly be that your Gnome Shell thinks to be smart and always blocks launching new instances, then it might only work from terminal. On my own machine though, running Ubuntu GNOME (gnome-shell 3.10.4) and don't have this problem. But I wouldn't be surprised if they started doing something like that in 3.12 or 3.14.

[aphotic (darkmishu)]

I've tried launching it while open, clicking on the systray icon, executing the app from terminal. I have tried everything I can think of to bypass Gnome possibly acting goofy about window management. I saw the message you mention when I ran haguichi -d from the terminal but still no window was presented to me.

I will try changing the start minimized option back to default and see if that has any results.

[Stephen Brandt (ztefn)]

You can disable start in tray via command line by executing:
gconftool-2 --set /apps/haguichi/behavior/start_in_tray --type bool false

If you have any other desktop environment install besides GNOME it might be very useful to check and see if the problem occurs there too.

[aphotic (darkmishu)]

Tried your command and it went through successfully. I then tried loading haguichi from a terminal and got this error:

The assembly mscorlib.dll was not found or could not be loaded.
It should have been installed in the `/usr/lib/mono/2.0/mscorlib.dll' directory.

I will test a different WM when I get home tonight, likely KDE unless you have another suggestion.

The GLib messages are no problem, they can be seen anywhere. It's a known problem in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1264368

If an assembly cannot be found I'm surprised that you have been able to start Haguichi at all. Sounds like some libraries on your system are messed up.

Had any luck on KDE?

[aphotic (darkmishu)]

It loads in KDE but initially the window is too small to display anything. (It shows up as just the border and window controls drawn by the WM.) I am able to resize it though and then the program functions normally. Hiding & restoring it the window maintains its size. It only does this glitch when the program first loads.

[aphotic (darkmishu)]

As for the missing library I did a purge and reinstall of haguichi and all its dependencies to get past that.

[Stephen Brandt (ztefn)]

Okay, so once you resize it to normal proportions and exit Haguichi normally (by using "Client" -> "Quit" form the menubar) then what is the size when you relaunch Haguichi again? Is the size you just set restored or is it back to near zero pixels again?
