Cannot add projects/task on Linux

[Marcin Drzymała]

Running GNU/Linux x86_64

Either i am missing something, or there is something wrong that prevents me from adding a new Project, adding contents... Generally speaking, I can't do anything beside adding/ modifying users and their skills.

The console (actually terminal) is full of: "Can't create transparent stage, because your screen doesn't support alpha channel. You need to enable XComposite extension."

[Andy Till]

I think this is because the xcomposite extension is not installed. I have to admit that I am only just getting to grips with Linux but what I think is happening is, translucency on nodes in the pop-up menu cause this exception. This happens because the disabled CSS reduces opacity.

A simple fix would be to change the CSS for disabled menu items although I don't have an environment set up to test this at the moment.

This JavaFX dependency is documented in the JavaFX 2.1 release notes[1] and probably other places. I have commented on the pre-existing bug for this[2].

There is also a proposed workaround on stackoverflow. Again I have not tested it, worth giving a try though:

[Marcin Drzymała]

Will definetely check that out.

I don't think it is because of the transparency... I don't recall that there would be black frames around pop-ups like in the jira bug-report. And i saw the pop-up fine, with the round(transparent) corners, so i believe i ran in sw-mode.

The thing is the menus in the pop-up were disabled.

[Marcin Drzymała]

I made some testing and it turned out that I CAN add projects, etc. but only when double clicking the *.jar When I run from terminal with java -jar then i cannot do anything. It;s getting even worse:

1.Running by double click with database as "esti": On the first run everything goes super smooth. The esti folder is created In the "/Home/user/". But on the second run i cannot connect.

2.Running from terminal with database as "esti": esti is created on the desktop, but I cannot add projects etc.

In the terminal nothing new, same 'ol XComposite. But it seems that this is not affecting the program at all, because i see everything fine. No further errors in the terminal.

[Marcin Drzymała]

With v0.2.1 I see a stack-trace in the console, seems like i am missing "libxslt.so.1" It happens when creating a WebView. I made a small test app and it also threw the same exception. Either it's something with my JavaFX or on my Archlinux. So I must apologize and close this issue.

That's great, thanks.
