Can no longer create a new workspace - STM32CubeIDE 1.12.1

[Marcelo Jimenez]

Hi. Since the last update I can no longer create a new workspace.

Any help is appreciated.

OpenSUSE Linux Thumbleweed here.

Best regards,

Marcelo.

Command line info

Looks like run-away strlen call in WebKitGDBus. Change to strnlen.

[Marcelo Jimenez]

Hi Pavel, thanks for your reply.

I don't think I have access to the STM32CUBEIDE code, what I have posted is the result of a command line call.

Where are you suggesting me to do this change?

Regards,

Marcelo.

Hello @Marcelo Jimenez​ 

First let me thank you for posting.

I am not able to reproduce the described behavior. Maybe our setups are not the same.

Could you provide the Linux version you are working with?

Also I will also need the entire log file and the exact steps which get you to such situation.

KR,

Semer.

Hi @Semer CHERNI​ ,

Thank you for your answer. I have posted the log file before. Are you refering to a different log file? If so, please specify and I will provide it.

I have also posted the results of running the program from the command line.

All the information about the linux system I am using is in the bottom of the log file I provided before, but I can reproduce any detail you need here if you need. It is an openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230430.

The exact steps are these:

1. Start the STM32CubeIDE. I have started it from the command line so that I could see if there were error messagens. The line I used was "/home/mroberto/st/stm32cubeide_1.12.1/stm32cubeide"
2. When prompted to open a workspace, choose a non-existant workspace to create a new one. I have done this many times before, but it has stopped working.
3. The IDE starts creating the workspace, but crashes in the middle. The .metadata folder is not fully populated.

Regards,

Marcelo.

I only want to add that I am experiencing the exact same error on Fedora 38 with fresh install of STM32CubeiDE 1.12.1 RPM.

[Semer CHERNI]

Hello @Marcelo Jimenez​ 

I am sorry to inform you that both openSUSE Tumbleweed and Fedora 38 are not fully support at the moment.

This is due to the fact that Linux came in multiple flavors which could not be all covered.

Maybe in the future those Linux version would be added to the list of supported OS which are mentioned in the Release note of the tool.

Kind regards,

Semer.

Hi @Semer CHERNI​ ,

Thank you for your answer.​

But I must disagree. _I_ am sorry. From my point of view, ST did not even try to address the problem. You see, you have a bug report with logs and backtraces. You have a clear error message with function names (strlen). A simple look at the source code and a programmer could easily fix the problem. You see, you use Java, but ST's answer is that the distribution is not supported. Not only that, you (ST) use _your_ version of Java, not the distribution version. So, if there is someone sorry here, it is me. I am sorry to hear such a bad excuse for not dealing with the problem. And I am sorry to hear that I should not post the problems I find here, because some time ago I happened to choose the wrong Linux distribution to use.

I will try to find a workaround and if I find it, I'll post it here.

In the meantime, while we hope that at some point in the future, ST will fix the problem, even if by chance.

Best regards,

Marcelo.
