External Engine Not Working on Arch Linux (Stuck on Loading)

[agenttux]

Hi, I'm trying to run this but it gets stuck. The command I'm using is:

remote-uci stockfish

When I click the link in the terminal, I see this:

After I authorize and try to open one of my games, it gets stuck like this and never evaluates:

Any suggestions for fixes? This is my log:

Also using arch, installed using docker compose. also using chromium. I get the same result. of note, the last log is uciok, and starting/stopping analysis on lichess doesn't seem to do anything. seems like the browser isn't able to talk to the engine at all. Either that or the log only shows the startup and doesn't say anything about ongoing games.

fyi, this also occurs when I compile from source and try to run the compiled executable

I'm getting this issue on Windows 10 running Docker with WSL2 backend. Launched with docker-compose in WSL2/Ubuntu 20.

Probably solved in alpha 2.
