Running the AppImage with QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1

When loading the latest available AppImage version of Kdenlive from here

https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/Kdenlive-17.12.0d-x86_64.AppImage.mirrorlist

It does not start with the following message:



This application failed to start because it could not find or load the Qt platform plugin "xcb"
in "".

Available platform plugins are: minimal, offscreen, vnc, xcb.

Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.

Comment 1 Jean-Baptiste Mardelle 2018-04-11 18:36:19 UTC
Hmm, could you try with the 18.04 RC AppImage to check if the problem is still there? I just uploaded it here:
https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/unstable/kdenlive-18.04-rc.AppImage.mirrorlist

Thanks for your feedback.
Comment 2 Dirk 2018-04-11 20:51:28 UTC
The 18.04 RC AppImage starts properly and without those error messages and from a first look it seems to work as expected. After listing all available formats and codecs ...

trying to load "/tmp/.mount_8xlcFL/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/kf5/kio/file.so" from "/tmp/.mount_8xlcFL/usr/lib/qt5/plugins/kf5/kio/file.so"
QCursor: Cannot create bitmap cursor; invalid bitmap(s)
QCursor: Cannot create bitmap cursor; invalid bitmap(s)

... is the only messages that are shown on startup.

The system is unchanged since my initial report.
Comment 3 emohr 2018-11-17 11:34:45 UTC
Please try with the actual Kdenlive AppImage version 18.08.3
Run the Appimage from the terminal (press CTRL + ALT + T). Move to the AppImage folder and run the .AppImage: ./Kdenlive*.AppImage
Should be fixed with Kdenlive version 16.12
Comment 4 Vincent PINON 2019-01-04 13:57:15 UTC
Do I understand wrong that last reply is that AppImage now works on your system?
Can we close this bug?

I can confirm the startup on my system with latest stable AppImage (18.12.0e as of posting this text). Here’s the startup log.

See my last comment before janitor service.
Comment 8 Mark Jones 2019-01-20 18:45:27 UTC
I just tried the latest appimage as the Lubuntu repo version is old. It seems to run, but gives these in the terminal:

$ ./kdenlive-18.12.1b-x86_64.appimage 
QApplication: invalid style override passed, ignoring it.
Empty filename passed to function
[a bunch of "loading", "format"s, and "codecs" listed...]

Comment 9 emohr 2019-01-20 19:57:15 UTC
Do you run the Appimage from the terminal and run the AppImage: ./Kdenlive*.AppImage ?
Comment 10 farid 2021-03-10 19:36:46 UTC
Is this happening in the latest appimage?
