Tizen Developers

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the prompt reply.  Unfortunately, I've tried both resolutions as well without any success.

Hi,

Strange. I have not faced any problems on my Ubuntu 14.04. You can also try to switch GPU off from the Emulator manager.

Hi Alex, I'm afraid that doesn't do anything either.  Is there any log files I can check to get more of an idea about what's happening?

Hi,

You can check the following:

\tizen-sdk-data\emulator\vms\ emulator-manager.log

and IDE log:

workspace\.metadata\.log

Hi Alex,

Thanks for that!

Looking at the emulator log, I get the following when I press the play button:

Any ideas or suggestions?

Hi,

I hope you have already installed packages required by Prerequisites for the Tizen SDK:

https://developer.tizen.org/downloads/sdk/installing-sdk/prerequisites-tizen-sdk

sudo apt-get install libudev-dev libwebkitgtk-1.0-0 libpython2.7 make findutils rpm2cpio cpio

sudo apt-get install libsdl1.2debian

Also, you can try to install Tizen Standalone Emulator as described here:

https://wiki.tizen.org/wiki/Tizen_Standalone_Emulator

Hi Alex,

I do have all the dependencies, but some progress at last, although not the complete solution.

I copied the command in the log and ran it as root.  The emulator starts when I do this.  However, it doesn't seem to work as a normal user.

Do you have any idea what permissions I need or what I should clean to ensure I can run it as a normal user?

Hi,

I have only 2 ideas:

1. Please make sure that you didn’t run the install manager as root when you installed the SDK. You should run it as a normal user.

2. Are you able to run the Emulator from the Emulator manager now?

Hi,

1. I installed as a normal user.  I've got a feeling there is some crud in my HOME folder, but I have no idea what files to delete as I don't want to break the rest of my environment.  I'll try backing up a few things and see if it makes any difference.  I've deleted the tizen-sdk* folders and reinstalled, with no success.

2. Unfortunately not, I have to use sudo on the command line to run the emulator.

Thanks for your continued suggestions :)

OK, done some more digging and it seems that I have to delete ~/.config/dbus and then everything starts working again.  This seems to get corrupted every now and then and I have to keep deleting this directory for the emulator to start working again!

A bit annoying and I hope it can be fixed, but hey, that's how I got it working.

I can now launch it from the emulator-manager as well, just need to delete the aforementioned folder every so often!

Apologies, I meant I had to delete the ~/.config/dconf folder for this to work.

Hi,

Actually, I have not faced such issue, but I think you can try the following to fix the issue:

A.

1. Close the IDE, Emulator etc

2. Remove ~/.config/dconf folder

3. Remove workspace/.metadata folder

4. Start the IDE again

If A doesn’t work then try B:

B.

1. Close the IDE, Emulator etc

2. Uninstall the SDK

3. Remove ~/.config/dconf folder

4. Remove workspace/.metadata folder

5. Remove ~/tizen-sdk and ~/tizen-sdk-data folders.

6. Reinstall the SDK

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the advice.  All I had to do in the end was reset dconf using:

dconf reset -f /

This reset more than I wanted, but now the emulator works everytime.  I am using gnome by the way which is unorthodox but I'm guessing it's not that different from Unity.

Many Thanks,
Adeel

Hi,

Good news!

There should be no any problems with gnome. I use the SDK on laptop with Linux Mint Mate (which is almost gnome) without any problems.

Hi,
Usually it is enough use common prerequisites: https://developer.tizen.org/downloads/sdk/installing-sdk/prerequisites-tizen-sdk
Also, maybe , check that linux, sdk, java are with the same bit version (32 or 64 bit).
I have Tizen SDK which was installed on VM (ubuntu 13.04 image 32bit without KVM support) - emulator works ok (but very slowly).
Try to look logs as it is proposed by Alexander above.
Alexey.

Hi Alexey, Thanks for your reply, but it seemed that there is some corruption in the ~/.config/dconf folder which I need to keep deleting for the emulator to work.

Thanks for your reply Pradeep but I'm afraid still no luck.  I am lost as to what's going wrong now, I've tried several different things.
