Ask your question!

When I try to run Wezterm, it wont start, but it wont either output any errors. These are the contents of the log files that I have at $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/wezterm:

Same using niri. Quite annoying. It worked for a couple of days too, then just not, with this INFO message.

This coupled with the lua configuration makes wezterm a poor contender for my choice of terminal right now. It's fast and stuff, but, if it won't even start... 🤷‍♂️

It seems it's starting in another process but maybe that other process is borked..

Can you try to pkill wezterm and try to open it again? (any more logs?)

Seems to be opening every time for me these days, but I've since moved back to Kitty since it has more features and works more to my liking. But from what I cal tell with my short test, this doesn't seem to be an issue (for me!) anymore.
