sh: 0: Can't open /etc/init.d/xvfb and curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found

Travis is trying to be very funny lately.

First using a build matrix for Python 3.3 is:

1. With python: 3.3
   • curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found
   • https://travis-ci.org/evandrocoan/debugtools/jobs/567462750

Then, I tried using Python 3.4, and now it says it cannot open xvfb

1. With python: 3.4
   • sh: 0: Can't open /etc/init.d/xvfb
   • https://travis-ci.org/evandrocoan/debugtools/jobs/567464482

Any ideas how I could fix this?

[randy3k]

are there still issues?

[evandrocoan]

Yes. I restarted both builds above. The python 3.3 link above still 404 not found:

1. https://travis-ci.org/evandrocoan/debugtools/jobs/567462750

And the python 3.4 still saying sh: 0: Can't open /etc/init.d/xvfb.

1. https://travis-ci.org/evandrocoan/debugtools/jobs/567464482

This is my part of the xvfb on my .travis

1. https://github.com/evandrocoan/debugtools/blob/a54da83a35f406179f105bf350294cf693b41edd/.travis.yml#L79-L82

       # enable gui, see https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/gui-and-headless-browsers
       - if [ -z "$TOXENV" ] && [ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "linux"  ]; then
               export DISPLAY=:99.0;
               sh -e /etc/init.d/xvfb start;
         fi

I'm seeing the same thing:

$ if [ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "linux" ]; then export DISPLAY=:99.0; sh -e /etc/init.d/xvfb start; fi

sh: 0: Can't open /etc/init.d/xvfb

The command "if [ "$TRAVIS_OS_NAME" == "linux" ]; then export DISPLAY=:99.0; sh -e /etc/init.d/xvfb start; fi" failed and exited with 127 during .

It looks like Travis switched my default image from Trusty to Xenial a few days ago, which requires a new way for using xvfb (see docs). I just added this to my yaml file:

services:
  - xvfb

And removed manually starting xvfb. It looks like Travis takes care of setting DISPLAY, too.

I've the same errors. For python 3.3 I don't think we can do much, since it's not supported by Travis anymore: https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/python/#specifying-python-versions

Here is how I modified my config to make it work again:
gwenzek/SublimeSetWindowTitle@665bf6e

[randy3k]

anyone mind pushing a working .travis?

[gwenzek]

https://github.com/gwenzek/SublimeSetWindowTitle/blob/665bf6efa6b4a9414f3aff4bcb44b18ecfe33ee4/.travis.yml is working
