Hi Jon, Did you known about this http://book.seaside.st/book/advanced/deployment ? Anyway, you should use both -vm-display-null as well as -vm-sound-null It is also best to invoke the executable itself not its wrapper (but I think you did that). Futher, it is important that you close all open windows in your image. Good luck, Sven On 30 Nov 2010, at 15:58, Jon Hancock wrote:
I've found a few tidbits on how to start pharo headless. I'm using the most recent Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app which works fine for dev on OS X. When I try to move this to linux, I get troubles.
To keep things simple, I've copied the pharo.sh script as pharo-headless.sh.
Here is the script: --- BEGIN --- #!/bin/sh
# path ROOT=`dirname $0` BASE="$ROOT/Contents/Linux"
# execute exec "$BASE/squeakvm" \ -plugins "$BASE" -mmap 100m -encoding latin1 \ -vm-display-X11 -vm-sound-null -headless \ "$ROOT/Contents/Resources/pharo.image"
--- END ---
On ubuntu 10.04 32-bit I get this: jhancock@pi1:~/Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app$ ./pharo-headless.sh libSM.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory could not find module vm-display-X11 Aborted
On ubuntu 8.04 64-bit I get this: knr@us1:~/Pharo-1.1-OneClick.app$ ./pharo-headless.sh exec: 15: ./Contents/Linux/squeakvm: not found
I really need to get it running on the ubuntu 8.04 64-bit system. Once I get past this problem, what is the best method to kill/shutdown pharo from outside the dev environ? I don't require to save the image, just safely kill it so it doesn't hold on to resources like socket listener, etc...
thanks, Jon
