Trouble running Anarki on Windows 10 Home
2 points by jsgrahamus 1633 days ago | 8 comments
I downloaded Anarki last night, removed the reference to rlwrap, and tried to run it twice. Both times it hung and when I interrupted it with Ctrl-C, I got the following:

  Steve@DESKTOP-0SFLH1S MINGW64 /d/Steve - 
  D/Documents - D/git/anarki (master)
  $ ./arc.sh
  initializing arc.. (may take a minute)
  user break
    context...:
     D:\Steve - D\Documents - 
  D\git\anarki\ac.rkt:1456:4
Any help would be appreciated.

TIA, Steve

Copied directory to another drive:

  Steve@DESKTOP-0SFLH1S MINGW64 /d/anarki (master)
  $ racket -v
  Welcome to Racket v8.0 [cs].

  Steve@DESKTOP-0SFLH1S MINGW64 /d/anarki (master)
  $ ./arc.sh -n
  initializing arc.. (may take a minute)

Looks consistent under Windows cmd:

    D:\anarki>arc.cmd
    initializing arc.. (may take a minute)

Cannot get it formatted to separate lines

It does work on my Mac with Racket v8.0. I'm at commit 009a8d9388 in the Anarki repo (May 9)

I'm not sure what's going on! Did it used to work for you on Windows 10? How long is the possible window of breakage?

Thanks for checking in. The dates of the files in the directories is 2018. I downloaded recent version and gave it a spin: It took about a minute to start up and then I ran (app-start "news") and it started the news app.

Thanks again.

Steve

Odd that downloading it again caused it to work.

If you're on Windows, try starting it with arc.cmd.

Then to run Anarki (app-start "news") at the prompt.

I downloaded a new version, and it started just fine. Thanks.
