index.html not rendering or showing what gama_client.js is supposed to show about gama.clients

[hqnghi88]

Hi i will see your js. The windows machine must have admin right access or it will alway return randomly error….

[xiaofanliang]

I think @neo is right. I switched my GAMA back to 1.8 version and the server can start fine without the JAVA issue (but then the rendering issues loop back to what I had at the very beginning, which is no error messages whatsoever but cannot load simulation).

I followed @neo's suggestion and go to my sh file and change this line (it is essentially revert the commit mentioned above)
if ! "$( dirname $( realpath "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" ) )"
back to the previous commit
if ! "$( dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}" )"

and then start the server with GAMA 1.9 version, and the index.html is running smoothly like below

and syntax.html is reporting statistics

and SimpleGUI_new.html is functional except for a few toy examples. It also requires tweaking the absolute and model path. Right now the way the path is programmed requires users to download GAMA github version (https://github.com/gama-platform/gama). I did that, but there are still some examples that cannot be run. For example, Simple Traffic Model.gaml reported the following errors.

In conclusion, this gama.client can only run on 1.9 version, and need a few tweaks in gama-headless.sh for Mac users (may not need it for Linux) to start the server. Some library examples cannot be run in the SimpleGUI_new.html.

Hi,
I am not really a pro user mac but im currently can launch the bash headless.sh on m1. So may be you can open an issue on gama repository if you think the scripts must be changed.
The syntax.html is not pre-defined statistics but it s a real simulation on an example server.
Regarding simpleGUI , it is as you tested, some specific model cannot launch for the moment.

[hqnghi88]

Please try again with my new commit (of course with the latest alpha version of GAMA).

[xiaofanliang]

Hi! @hqnghi88 thanks for updating. I re-downloaded the alpha version of the GAMA, clone the new repo, and repeat my steps above, but the same issues persist. There are no error messages on the browser or the terminal.

This is the view when I opened index.html on my browser. Am I supposed to see the simulation running from gama_client.js? Are my steps above the right way to load the examples?

[hqnghi88]

Your steps are right, what is in console tab (you are showing network, please see in console)?

[xiaofanliang]

You can see the console tab output on the bottom right of the image. It did not report any error message. Not sure if this has any impact, but I open the index.html by double-clicking the file in the local folder, with a path like file:///~/gama.client/index.html rather than ws://localhost:6868/. In fact, ws://localhost:6868/ will not load on the browser (it says sites cannot be reached).

[hqnghi88]

Yes it is supposed to open index.html , ws is a websocket and browser address cant process that kind. Nothing in the terminam where gamaserver launched?

[hqnghi88]

You should pull gama.client repo, i changed the code in that repo, not the gama repo (just be sure you are using the latest alpha)

[xiaofanliang]

Yes, I pulled the gama.client repo, not the GAMA repo, and installed the alpha version: GAMA_1.9.0_MacOS_M1_02.09.23_4b82ffc7.dmg. There is no error message on the terminal where gamaserver is launched. It just says: 0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 entered the room!

[hqnghi88]

Send me your gamaclient.js

[xiaofanliang]

Do you need to have JAVA or Eclipse installed or configured in a specific way? I just restarted my computer fresh and rerun the process on my Mac M1 and my friend's window system (both installed with Alpha version. I installed GAMA_1.9.0_MacOS_M1_02.09.23_4b82ffc7.dmg and he installed GAMA_1.9.0_Windows_with_JDK_02.09.23_4b82ffc7.exe). I configured path to the model through the application, and he configured the path to the model through git version of GAMA. both of us ran into JAVA-related issues in the server.

My error starts even before GAMA can listen on the port:

His error starts after the listening:

I attached my gamaclient.js in case you still want to take a look:

Thanks for digging into this rabbit hole. I tried reinstalled GAMA and start all the process fresh again and now the JAVA errors persist. They did not show up before.

[hqnghi88]

I checked your js and it's perfect, do you have any changes in GAMA.js so that it is not updated? Even if the path it should show a message as:

Regarding the 2 error message, it is relate with the path and access right, please try with the highest priviledges on each OS (sudo or administrator)

I think the Could not find or load main class org... error could be because you didn't run the bash script from the headless directory?

[xiaofanliang]

@hqnghi88 I saw that that error message (Invalid LngLat object) shows up at one point in my trial at the window computer. It never shows in Mac. I will try to set the privileges and see if that works.

[xiaofanliang]

I think the Could not find or load main class org... error could be because you didn't run the bash script from the headless directory?

It shows the same error even if I start in the headless directory.

It seems like realpath was introduced in this commit gama-platform/gama@240559e in gama-headless.sh but it's actually only available in linux but not in mac?
