LiveCode Forums.

After much trial and error and brain and heart ache, I finally got LiveCode 10 installed on CachyOS which runs KDE. The GUI is a no go, you will hit -E error that some rando is keeping the application from updating. So what you need to do instead is download the installer to the machine, make sure ...

LiveCode has implemented a wide variety of licensing schemes in the years I've been a user. Since I believe v2.7. And I cannot recall a single one that has not been the subject of controversy. I've seen people seemingly go out of their way to generate confusion and doubt where things were really not...

See 'quote' and '&' in the dictionary.

See this thread for an explanation and a solution:

The new version runs in my Linux and Android browsers, as well

In all my Linux browsers, both Blink/Chromium based and Gecko/Firefox based, William's dp5 app loads and runs but the dp6 version fails to run after downloading. I'm not expert at using the developer and debug tools in the browser but it looks like the font doesn't download. Could it be that desktop...

Richmond, If you always choose the install only for self option (IIRC this is what you've said you do) all Livecode components are installed in a '~/.runrev' directory. The icon is installed in '~/.local/share/applications' Those are the only locations where the installer puts anything unless you in...

Thank you! Your advice helped me hit pay dirt on this. I'm happy to learn you resolved the issue of the failing installer! That's the most important thing. It's interesting to note that our problems were not the same insomuch as your solution of adding the '-log' flag does not work for me. The inst...

Hi, Richard. It's an Arch spin (EndeavourOS) with Openbox. This has been happening for some months now and even installers which previously had worked now get stuck after selecting the installation location and starting the actual installation process. It shows a dialog complaining about conflicting...

tetsuo, try adding the -ui flag to your command. I can't use the installer the "GUI" way any more but it runs and installs properly using the -ui flag. The installers launch for me but get stuck, so we don't have exactly the same behavior, but even if it doesn't result in a successful installation, ...

Correct, Kkaus. But that could open the question if a mechanism could be used inside LC to switch the default account and then use mailto: from with LC. So, for that time the default is changed, but closing or just leaving the app, it is set back to the original default. At least, it would be a wor...

Is this really something to be afraid of? The user probably has chosen a default account because that's one he prefers to use. It's likely the one he would select if presented a choice in your app. In any event if someone has multiple accounts set up in his email client he can almost certainly choos...

This is of course different from non-licences users asking coding questions which should be encouraged, but I have a recollection they made a point about the actual opensource IDE. Can anyone remember? Questions regarding why Livecode isn't running or behaving as expected and how to resolve these i...

Redfield, which DE did you install with EndeavourOS? I installed XFCE. Was also using XFCE on RebornOS, where Livecode worked. Is it possible the installer download was corrupted? I would download and try again before I started down any deeper rabbit holes. Done so, no change. I have meanwhile inst...

Redfield, which DE did you install with EndeavourOS? I'm running the Openbox community version. I just now downloaded the installer for 9.6.3 from the page that Richmond posted in this thread and it runs. My output of 'ldd <installerPath>' is the same as what you got. I can run version 8 of Livecode...
