ROOT - No graphical output shown

[Tea]

Hello,

I’m trying to install ROOT on ubuntu in a virtual machine and I’ve no graphical output.

ubuntu version:
Linux ubuntu 2.6.32-47-generic #109-Ubuntu SMP Tue May 7 02:03:05 UTC 2013 i686 GNU/Linux

ROOT version:
5.32.04

as virtual machine I’m using:
vmware version 5.0.2

what I’ve done so far:

1. download the src
2. create the desination folder
3. cmake
4. make
5. make install
6. running bin/thisroot.sh
7. root -l

until this moment there is no error. But if I try to get the TBrowser it doesn’t work. The same goes for every other graphic output (TCanvas, TH1F, …). I can calculate with the shell but it doesn’t draw windows (see below). There is only a memory adress shown.

root [0] cout << "test: " << 42 / 3.14 << endl;
test: 13.3758
root [1] new TBrowser()
(class TBrowser*)0x93c8e98
root [2]

I don’t know what causes this error but I hope you could have an answer.
And btw (before someone asks) xft libraries are installed

root-config --features
asimage astiff builtin_afterimage cern cintex clarens exceptions explicitlink fftw3 gdml krb5 ldap mathcore mathmore mysql odbc opengl peac pgsql python qt qtgsi reflex roofit minuit2 ruby shadowpw shared soversion ssl table unuran xft xml xrootd thread

tanks in advance

It seems you are missing the “x11” ROOT feature (possibly missing Ubuntu X11 development packages).
See the “Ubuntu 9, 10, 11 and 12” entry in the ROOT - Build Prerequisites web page.

[Tea]

you were right. I installed the package but the problem didn’t change.

root [0] new TBrowser()
(class TBrowser*)0x914c408
root [1]

(but no window)

[Wile_E_Coyote]

You need to rebuild your ROOT from SCRATCH (i.e. from the very beginning, when you unpack the source code).

[Tea]

Now I deleted the whole directory and rebuilded everything from scratch.

which means:

• created the desination folder
• cmake
• make
• make install
• running bin/thisroot.sh
• root -l

but the error is stille there:
root [0] new TBrowser()
(class TBrowser*)0xa318780
root [1]

there is no graphical output.

[Wile_E_Coyote]

Do you see “x11” in the output of “root-config --features”?

[Tea]

trageser@ubuntu:~$ root-config --features
asimage astiff builtin_afterimage builtin_ftgl builtin_glew builtin_lzma cintex exceptions explicitlink fftw3 genvector krb5 ldap mathmore memstat opengl reflex shadowpw shared ssl tmva xft x11

So yes, I see it

[Wile_E_Coyote]

What do you exactly mean by “running bin/thisroot.sh”?

What do you get when you execute:
[bash] export | grep DISPLAY
{csh] setenv | grep DISPLAY

When you execute “root” (without the “-l” option), can you see the graphical “splash image” displayed for the first 5 seconds?

What do you get when you execute:
root-config --etcdir
root-config --prefix
root-config --exec-prefix
root-config --bindir
root-config --libdir

[Wile_E_Coyote]

I assume that you work in the following way:

1. you start your virtual machine in “vmware”
2. it “boots” and you get a graphical Ubuntu “gdm” / “kdm” / “xdm” window
3. you “login” as “someuser”, and your “gnome” / “kde” / “afterimage” session starts
4. you open an “xterm” / “gnome terminal” / “kde terminal” window which runs a “bash” shell
5. inside of this terminal, you run “. /…/bin/thisroot.sh” and then “root”

Can you check the output of (pay attention to all “absolute paths” reported):
which root
type root
which root.exe
type root.exe
ldd root-config --bindir/root
ldd root-config --bindir/root.exe
ldd root-config --libdir/libCore.so
ldd root-config --libdir/libRint.so
ldd root-config --libdir/libCint.so

[Tea]

You assumed correctly.

I’ll post you the whole terminal session:

I see nothing wrong in any output that you’ve shown up to now.

I’m afraid I ran out of ideas …

Just one more thing to try … in the terminal in which your first execute “. /…/bin/thisroot.sh”, try to start an “xterm” / “gnome-terminal”. Does the new terminal window open? And if yes, try to start “root” from inside of this new terminal window (without executing “. /…/bin/thisroot.sh” first, as all required system variables should be “inherited” from the “mother” shell / terminal).

[Tea]

I started in gnome terminal the xterm.
First I launched root -l and there was the same problem with no error messages.

trageser@ubuntu:~$ root -l
root [0] new TBrowser()
(class TBrowser*)0x9d77890
root [1]

(no TBrowser appears)
then I tryed it without the parameter l. There were also no welcome screen but now I see the following:

trageser@ubuntu:~$ root
rootx xpm error: XpmOpenFailed

trageser@ubuntu:~$

so it seems it is installed

[Tea]

So I think I solved it partialy already.

Now I get a ROOT screen if I type root.

But I stil get no other fraphical window like TBrowser.

What I did:
Copy the directory icon/ to my workdir. That is maybe the way to solve this completely …

[Tea]

I’ve tried to copy all directorys from the source directory to destination folder (workdir).
I’m afraid this didn’t do the trick either.
But at least I’ve still the splash screen.

[Wile_E_Coyote]

Well, can it be that the “cmake” method of ROOT installation misbehaved (i.e. it produced a broken “ROOT installation”)?
Can you try to use the standard “configure” method?
(And try the head of the v5-34-00-patches branch or the v5-34-07 version.)
See:
[url]Release 5.32.03 on Ubuntu 12.04

[Tea]

@Wile E. Coyote

Well, can it be that the “cmake” method of ROOT installation misbehaved (i.e. it produced a broken “ROOT installation”)?

I don’t know this but I would find it very strange if this would be true.

@Wile E. Coyote

Can you try to use the standard “configure” method?

I assume you mean with[/quote]
./configure
make
I can try this.

@Wile E. Coyote

(And try the newest v5-34-00-patches branch git source code.)

Then I try this new ROOT version

[Tea]

Ok I tried this too.
What I did
1.) download the new root version
2.) moved my previous root directory (from /opt/root/ to /opt/root_old/)
3.) copied the directory to /opt/root-v5/)
4.) ./configure linux
5.) make -j2

=== ROOT BUILD SUCCESSFUL. ===
=== Run ‘source bin/thisroot.[c]sh’ before starting ROOT ===

6.) setting variables
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# echo $ROOTSYS

root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# export ROOTSYS=$PWD
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# echo $ROOTSYS
/opt/root-v5-34
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# echo $PATH
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# export PATH=$PATH:$ROOTSYS/bin

root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ROOTSYS/lib
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/opt/root-v5-34/lib

7.) thisroot
root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# . $ROOTSYS/bin/thisroot.sh

8.) root
Now I have a asplashscreen too

9.) trying new TBrowser()

root@ubuntu:/opt/root-v5-34# root

Do NOT set “ROOTSYS”, “PATH”, “LD_LIBRARY_PATH” yourself.
The “. /Full/Path/To/Your/ROOT/bin/thisroot.sh” call is expected to set all required system variables.

I can see “Version 5.99/01 6 May 2013” in your output.
