conky issues since switching to helium #solve#

Hi i have change my hard disk and change for helium
i keep all my config files but one of my conky does not work.

here is the error message

┌─╼ wagmic ╺─╸ bunsenwag [~]

First i see the name of the interface swich from wlan0 to wlp6s0 but when i change that the error stay

if somebody have 5 min and can take a look it'll be kind

thanks by advance

Re: conky issues since switching to helium #solve#

Conky 1.10 is using a new syntax and I assume that lua script is called trying to convert your old syntax (and fails). I know that wasn't really helpful, but i'd start with clean (empty conky config) and convert it manually (basically line by line). (At least for /me that cryptic error is not doing anything.)

Mini example

conky.config = {
    alignment = 'bottom_right',
    background = true,
    border_width = 0,
    cpu_avg_samples = 2,
    default_color = 'black',
    draw_borders = false,
    draw_graph_borders = false,
    draw_outline = false,
    draw_shades = false,
    use_xft = true,
    gap_x = 8,
    gap_y = 6,
    minimum_height = 5,
    minimum_width = 25,
    net_avg_samples = 2,
    no_buffers = false,
    out_to_console = false,
    out_to_stderr = false,
    extra_newline = false,
    own_window = true,
    own_window_class = 'Conky',
    own_window_type = 'desktop',
    own_window_argb_visual = true,
    own_window_hints = undecorated,below,sticky,skip_taskbar,skip_pager,
    own_window_transparent = true,
    stippled_borders = 0,
    update_interval = 5.0,
    uppercase = false,
    use_spacer = 'none',
    show_graph_scale = false,
    show_graph_range = false,
    default_bar_width = 80,
    default_bar_height = 8,
}

conky.text = [[
${color #131313}
CPU ${cpubar} MEM ${membar} HOME ${fs_bar /home} 
]]

And a slightly fatter example.

Re: conky issues since switching to helium #solve#

Try my conversion to the syntax1.10 of your configuration file.
With your commands below TEXT, it won't work on my machine. That's why I cut out the two orders and put them upstairs.

I don't have now time to look into it more closely now.

conky.config = {

	background = false,
	update_interval = 1,
	double_buffer = true,
	no_buffers = true,

	own_window = true,
	own_window_transparent = true,
	own_window_type = 'normal',
	own_window_hints = 'undecorated,below,skip_taskbar,skip_pager',  --stick
	own_window_colour = '000000',

	minimum_width = 250, minimum_height = 100,

-- Alignment #
	alignment = 'top_middle',
	gap_x = 20,
	gap_y = 50,

	border_inner_margin = 15,
	border_outer_margin = 0,

-- Graphics settings #
	draw_shades = false,
	draw_outline = false,
	draw_borders = false,
	draw_graph_borders = false,

	use_xft = true,
	xftalpha = 0,
	font = 'Open Sans Light:size=7',

	override_utf8_locale = true,

	imlib_cache_size = 0,

-- Color scheme #
	default_color = '#D3E6E6',

-- if_up_strictness link:  up | link | address
	if_up_strictness = address,

--#${goto 35}Mac:${goto 150}${exec ifconfig -a | grep HWaddr | grep wlan0 | cut -c 39-55}

};

Re: conky issues since switching to helium #solve#

@ unklar thanks a lot
i have worked hard yesterday to come to the same config file, i just clean the code and follow the instruction you gave me
