need help with xvfb-run (xauth not found)

imadsani · 05-12-2016, 07:17 AM

Hello,

I have a server setup with apache 2.4 and php-fpm 5.4. My application executes xvfb-run via php to get the screenshot of a website using CutyCapt. The problem is with php-fpm if I run the command I get an error like the following:

Code:

xvfb-run: error: xauth command not found

any ideas?

In your script try define the path for "xvfb-run" and "CutyCapt". Check also if your an "apache" user.

Good luck.

m.m.

I was able to fix this by commenting the lines where xvfb-run was checking for xauth. Turns out this issue is only on php-fpm. I now have another issue, I keep getting the following warnings which is breaking my application:

Code:

libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to open swrast (search paths /usr/lib64/dri)
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to open swrast (search paths /usr/lib64/dri)

This is CentOS 7 btw

edit: fixed this as well, had to install mesa-dri-drivers

PHP-FPM cleans all environment variables, thus PATH needs to be populated for xvfb-run to find xauth:

You need to put:

Quote:

env[PATH] = '/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin'

In the www conf file of PHP-FPM.
