I'm not really using this package anymore, as I migrated to use https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged directly, but I don't want to change the upstream AppImage to shadow-repackaged as this may disrupt other users of this repo. I will continue to update the PKGBUILD until someone else wants to take over.

Finally got my issue resolved. None of the packages that got pinned after I unsubscribed helped. (although they motivated me to resubscribed and try again) I reached out to shadow support and said that they officially support Ubuntu but I couldn't get that working in a VM. (which was true) The person who responded directed me to a repo that helped a lot. https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged

In my case my issue was you can't run plex and shadow at the same time and once I stopped the plex service it worked like a charm. (Note: the Stable version over there didn't work for me but the Beta and Alpha work fine as well the package in this repo. @tionis I highly recommend pinning the link to that gitlab as it has a bunch of possible issues listed with workarounds for a lot of the popular branches. (Arch among others)

Some notes:

Some dependencies may be required and were reported by other users. They are not in PKGBUILD because I personally haven't had any issue running Shadow without these packages. I need more users' reports to confirm they are really required before putting them into PKGBUILD. So please try the following dependencies if you encounter errors, and please report here if these dependencies do resolve your errors.

  1. libldap24 from AUR
  2. net-tools
  3. xdg-utils
  4. flatpak

@pychuang thanks!

@tionis Awesome! I am now disowning the package. You can claim it. Thanks!

tionis commented on 2022-09-01 22:31 (UTC)

I would like to take over maintenance of this package, I am currently using a fixed version of this package on my own machine and would like to provide it to others as well

pychuang commented on 2022-04-16 02:34 (UTC)

I canceled the Shadow subscription because it's now somehow expensive. That says, I won't maintain this package. If anyone wants to take over this package, please let me know.

@Yakuma Thanks. I modified the shadow.sh. Please let me know if it's working for you. I couldn't try it because I couldn't reproduce that login error.

@pychuang @kskudlik flatpak is not needed. It just defines the XDG_DATA_DIRS env to /usr/share and some other dirs.

XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share shadow.sh works but you should just remove the export XDG_DATA_DIRS= line for it to work as /opt/shadow-tech/usr/share does not exist.

@peshane, it works! After installing "libldap24" from AUR, shadow runs without any problems. Thank you very much!

peshane commented on 2021-12-06 17:27 (UTC)

@whyrhd, I was also stuck with this error, first I try to install net-tools package because strace shown sh exit 127 on "netstat" call. But that was not enough, in the end, the solution looks like to install "libldap24" from AUR.

Hi everyone, I was running shadow on my Arch for quite some time with the original AppImage provided by shadow. Recently, whenever I start the AppImage and press "Start", after some time I get the error code R-0x7F - Unknown Error. I feel like there are some dependencies missing but I cannot figure out which. Anyone having some advice? Thanks!

PS.: Some further information: I'm running Gnome and X11 (not Wayland). Besides the prepacked AppImage, I've now installed this shadow-tech package from AUR and get the same error. As mentioned before, shadow worked fine for some time but at some point it just stopped working. Presumably because of some update although I don't know if the problem is caused by a new shadow version or some other system update. I'm using a GeForce GT1030 and I'm using Arnouds patch (https://gitlab.com/aar642/libva-vdpau-driver). I would be really happy for any advice! Thanks!
