Run cider with the --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland args

[adryd325]

Can reproduce.

Run cider with the --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland args

This doesn't appear don't do anything on Xorg; even if I change --ozone-platform=wayland to --ozone-platform=x11

I get this when using the yarn start script

[593225:0402/231317.155844:ERROR:ozone_platform_x11.cc(248)] Missing X server or $DISPLAY
[593225:0402/231317.155875:ERROR:env.cc(226)] The platform failed to initialize.  Exiting.
The futex facility returned an unexpected error code.
Aborted (core dumped)

[Lampomaniac]

Reproduced on with the Flatpak version on Fedora 35.

Edit: Both Wayland and X11 sockets were available.

If i delete the config directory cider run again until i reboot the pc

I found the the bug in my case is the "XAUTHORITY" Variable in the cider-config.json. Dont know why but the variable need to change every-time i reboot.

If i delete the variable, cider start and change the Arg in the variable
Example:

Reboot 1
"XAUTHORITY": "/run/user/1000/xauth_nglCWB"

Reboot 2
"XAUTHORITY": "/run/user/1000/xauth_EORCXj"

In Wayland and X11 is the same, always need to change.

[VasyaSovari]

Verified.
Deleting cider-config.json allows cider-git to launch without issues.
The launch options suggested do nothing at all

The flatpak version seems to work fine thankfully, but it would be nice to have the git version with all the latest patches. Can someone fix this bug?

This obviously still needs resolution but just to comment I maintain the Flatpak/Flathub release and it automatically builds off the latest builds from git the only delay to release is a Flathub mandated delay, When a new version gets built it doesn't get published until a scheduled activity runs putting all unpublished apps in the queue live it's usually every 3 hours. You can watch the status here

The flatpak version does not work for me.

To not clog up this issue page with potentially unrelated info if you join the Discord I can help you troubleshoot the Flatpak if you want to get that working. Just ping me in the support channel @ seby#0101

hi, could just delete the "XAUTHORITY" line plz and tell me if cider work, not delete the al cider-config.json file. tell me if you have the same bug as i.

i think its a electron bug, but dont know.

Edit 1 :

Well i see cider store the "XAUTHORITY" inside the cider-config.json when its a token-cache value and change every reboot/login.

"(...)that the error is that the application is unable to contact your X11 display because it does not have permission to do so because it's running as a different user. Applications need a "magic cookie" (secret token) in order to talk to the X11 server so that other processes on the system running under other users cannot intrude on your display, create windows, and snoop your keystrokes."

Follow-up
[EDIT: important corrections]
First I tried commenting XAUTH out. That did nothing.
I then (without rebooting) deleted the line. That prompted a new Apple Music login window.
I deleted the line again and rebooted. No dice.

The only thing that has consistently worked is deleting the file.

However, I'm suspecting this is a change on Apple's side as my Followed Artists feed has also vanished again

you need delete the XAUTH line everytime you reboot, before open cider. The XUATH token change everytime you reboot the pc.

If this dont work for you; Can you upload the cider-config.json before and after delete plz?.

[VasyaSovari]

Deleting the XAUTH line after login and before launch does, indeed, work

you need delete the XAUTH line everytime you reboot, before open cider. The XUATH token change everytime you reboot the pc.

[mefsaal]

[VasyaSovari]

Awesome.
Today Cider launched with no tinkering required.

[VasyaSovari]

...
And it's back to not launching unless I delete XAUTH.
That was fun for a good 12 hours

Delete all cider folder config and try again. For my side, the xauth bug not happen anymore.
