Uno Platform on WSL: Errors in unchanged template

I'm attempting to build the Uno project template with Linux support, using WSL (Ubuntu 20.04), following the official guide.

Unfortunately, I always get an error running the Skia GTK project template: DllNotFoundException: Gtk: libgtk-3-0.dll, libgtk-3.so.0, libgtk-3.0.dylib, gtk-3.dll

I tried adding libgtk-3-0.dll's folder to the Windows PATH, but this didn't help. Then I tried installing libgtk-3 in WSL, but it just changed the error to Can't open display :0.

What am I doing wrong?

Solution

  • The Skia.Gtk backend expects a running X Window server to connect to.

    The guide suggests installing vcXsrv, an X11 server for Windows You'll need to start the server in "Multiple windows" mode, starting with "no client" mode.
