How long did you leave eric7 running? For me it ran for a period
of time before crashing. Mostly, it would crash while it was idle
when I was reading the documentation to learn how to use it, but
not always.<br>

<p>Hi Patrick,</p>
<p>I am sorry to hear, that you gave up. Nevertheless I installed a fresh openSUSE VirtualBox machine and got eric working in a Python virtual environment with one little issue not related to eric-ide. I had to update the 'pip' package of the environment because it was too old. Thereafter PyQt6 was installed without an issue and eric started and showed its initialization sequence.</p>
<p>Note: I installed openSUSE with the KDE Plasma desktop. Maybe that is different to your VM.</p>
<p>Regards,
Detlev

<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">I did install eric7
into a virtual environment as directed. <br>
<br>
I didn't check for error logs but the problem has been so
consistent across multiple versions of OpenSuSE that I didn't
care to investigate further. One thing that could be an issue
is that I'm running Eric7 on VirtualBox virtual machines.
Since I don't have problems with other applications I don't
believe it's a VirtualBox issue but thought I would throw that
out there.<br>
<br>
If I get in the mood to test again I will look at the logs.
But, for now I have uninstalled Eric7.<br>

<p>Hi Patrick,</p>
<p>I just tested eric7 in my openSUSE 15.5 VM and have to report, that it works as expected. Therefore I think, that your issue is somehow related to your installation.</p>
<p>1. Did you install eric into a Python virtual environment as recommended by the eric installation instructions?</p>
<p>2. Please start eric in terminal window and check for error messages. On some systems Qt6 is reporting a missing package (libxcb-cursor0) without that it will stop. The installation instruction of the eric web site contain such a hint.</p>
<p>3. Check the directory ~/.eric7 for the presence of an error log. If such a log exists, please send it to me.</p>
<p>4. Try to start eric in a terminal with "eric7_ide --debug" and send the debug log file to be found in "~/.eric7" to me.</p>
<p>Hope these steps will help to solve your issue and you are able to enjoy eric7.</p>
<p>Regards,
Detlev

<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Just installed
Eric7 onto an OpenSuSE Leap 15.5 machine. Eric7 keeps
crashing. The first time I had to restart the application.
Several times after that I lost my desktop session and had
to log in again.<br>
<br>
Eric6 had the same issue and I've tried installing it on
several different releases of OpenSuSE. Don't know if it's
just an OpenSuSE thing. I haven't tried to install it on
any other OS.<br>
