Howdy,

So I might be doing things you havent planned for - but I want to check.

I'm setting up talisman to work in docker.

When I compile, I have all the binaries going into /talisman/bin.

I have all the "configuration" files go into /talisman/data, eg: /talisman/data/gfiles, /talisman/data/menus, etc.

talisman.ini is in /talisman, which is the current directory when I start servo (ie: I start servo as "bin/servo").

servo starts with an error, but accepts a telnet connection.

"2024/04/18 00:55:36: EventManager: Error loading event manager config"

I see from strace that it then launches "talisman", but since that isnt in the current directory it failes. (PATH does have /talisman/bin). So I soft link /talisman/bin/talisman to /talisman/talisman.

My talisman ini files has

gfiles path = data/gfiles
data path = data/data
...

(I even tried with /talisman/data/gfiles), but upon connection (after ANSI detected) talisman core dumps. If I softlink /talisman/data/gfiles to /talisman/gfiles (the current directory of the talisman process), it seems to work. IE: It doesnt seem to honour the "path" settings?

No biggie, I can softlink my way around this - but thought I'd share in case it shouldnt be this way...

"2024/04/18 00:55:36: EventManager: Error loading event manager config"

That error is safe to ignore, talisman doesn't come with event manager config by default.

(I even tried with /talisman/data/gfiles), but upon connection (after ANSI detected) talisman core dumps. If I softlink /talisman/data/gfiles to /talisman/gfiles (the current directory of the talisman process), it seems to work. IE: It doesnt seem to honour the "path" settings?

Hmm, I'll have a look, maybe I have something hard coded by mistake.

Thanks,
Andrew

Can you try modifying your talisman.ini file to

GFile Path = data/gfiles

(Note capitalization in GFile)

I'm wondering if it's case sensitive and i've never noticed because I always have stuff in the default paths

gfiles path = data/gfiles

Actually, this is wrong, it should be "gfile path" (i don't think it is case sensitive) but I've also got it wrong in the talisman.ini that it comes with.

Howdy,

gfiles path = data/gfiles

Yup, gfile path works (i've left it lower case).

Thanks...
