Startup failure on Windows 10 + Mesa OpenGL

Open grue-bleen opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Describe the Bug

We have been trying to get webots running in a windows virtual machine environment, with Mesa OpenGL Desktop for software rendering. In this configuration, webots 2021b fails to launch. We're not getting any kind of error message or crash dump when this happens, just a silent exit.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Setup Windows 10 VM environment
  2. Install Mesa OpenGL MSVC Desktop drivers (https://github.com/pal1000/mesa-dist-win)
  3. Install Webots 2021b
  4. Launch Webots

Expected behavior Functional application launch and operation.

System

  • Operating System: Windows 10 Enterprise
  • Graphics Card: None - Mesa Desktop OpenGL

Fyi, the latest nightly build runs on a Windows 10 runner during CI using mesa3D 24.2.1 with MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.3 and LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true.
