@kanasethu Thank you for reporting problems to us. If you use Kiwix Desktop 2.0 (still in beta) from https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.kiwix.desktop. I think this should work.
from overview.
I close the ticket as this is already understodd that old kiwix-xulrunner is not able to deal with new ZIM files.
from overview.
@kelson42 I followed the instructions to and downloaded the beta version but ran into Qt errors. We do not need a full-blown desktop viewer. All we plan to do is run the kiwix server bin/kiwix-serve --port=8080 --verbose de.zim
. Could you give us a skinny build or the command line options to run just the server?
from overview.
@kanasethu Your command line should work. If you have any problem with kiwix-serve
. Please check if the problem is not already reported here https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-tools/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3Akiwix-serve and otherwise make a bug report.

@kelson42
The link you sent me was for org.kiwix.desktop
? Can this be run as a server (kiwix-serve
)?
If so, could you please send details on how to run this executable as a server?
Else if org.kiwix.desktop
cannot be run as a server, could you please send me a link to a kiwix-serve
executable which has the fix?
Here is the error I run into:
> flatpak run org.kiwix.desktop
qt.qpa.xcb: could not connect to display
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
Available platform plugins are: eglfs, minimal, minimalegl, offscreen, vnc, wayland-egl, wayland, wayland-xcomposite-egl, wayland-xcomposite-glx, xcb.

@kelson42 The link I have sent to you is about kiwix-tools, not kiwix-desktop.

@kelson42 How do I get the latest 2.0 build of kiwix-serve
for linux?
from overview.
@kanasethu Kiwix-serve does not have the same version numbering like kiwix-desktop. But you can find all binaries at https://download.kiwix.org/release/kiwix-tools/

I close the ticket as this is already understodd that old kiwix-xulrunner is not able to deal with new ZIM files.
@kelson42 could you please tell since when kiwix-xulrunner can't run new ZIM files?
It turned out that I can read wiktionary with the xulrunner, but can't read wikipedia.
