    What is that debugpy ?

    You seem to not have any environment variables set which is a bit surprising.

    @SGaist
    I don't know what debugpy refers to. However, when I ran the program, I used the run-without-debug option in vscode.

    I saw on the Qt website that Ubuntu 18.04 was supported, so I tested our program with this version and got the same error message: Could not connect to any X display. I also checked and found that x11 was being used.

    Regarding environment variables, I do not recall having to set any when using MacOS Mojave where the program ran fine and I have seen no dialogs for this while setting up the Ubuntu 20.10 system. Any advice on how to explore this would be appreciated, since I do not have prior experience with this.

    I have also checked permissions for the various files using the GUI options.

    Once again, many thanks.

      X11 is Linux only there's nothing here to compare with macOS.

      How did you test that on 18.04 ?

      One thing that I find really strange is that env seem to return empty which is something that is highly unexpected.

      How are you starting your terminal ?
      Which one do you use ?

        @SGaist

        I tested for x11 using: echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE at the $prompt of the terminal. The terminal I used is the default terminal that installed with the operating systems (18.04 and 20.10), presumably gnome-terminal? Should I switch to another?

        What is it that you see that indicates that "env seems to return empty"?

        Could it be a matter of permissions, given that that a gui (albeit distorted ) did appear on the screen when I opened from root?

        Thanks.

          I thought you called the env command and did not saw anything printed.

          So it was not the case, can you call it and show what you get ?

            here is the result for 18.04. If this is not informative, I can send the result for 20.10, but it will take me a few minuttes to change hard drives.

              Everything looks Ok...

              Next test: can you install and test your code with your distribution provided PyQt5 ?

                The env results I sent before were for ubuntu 18.04. In retrospect, this may have complicated things unnecessarily, since our goal is is to work on ubuntu 20.10. So below is the env output for 20.10. Note that the username for 20.10 is jonathan. For the older version, it is william.

                I am not entirely clear on what you mean for the next test. The program was previously transferred from Mojave to 20.10 via flash drive and run from vscode without debugging. After testing the code on Mojave to double check that it was working, I ran the code on 20.10 and got the following:

                  The idea is to use what is provided by Ubuntu rather than conda.

                  But before doing that, can you start your application with the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable set to 1 ?

                  That will give you more information with what is happening with plugins.

                    Based on what I found on web, I opened QtCreator: Tools-options-Environment-system-change. I added QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS=1, hit apply and ok. When I reopened the editor, the variable was there and set to 1. Re running the program as before yielded the same output in the vscode terminal. Should I look somewhere else ?

                      @lcleve
                      With that variable set you're supposed to get a whole bunch of output on stdout/stderr. I don't know about "vscode terminal". If you know how to run your Python script from a terminal you can set the variable there before running it and you should see the output.

                          Can you show the distortion you get ?

                          I still suggest that you try to run your application with the Ubuntu provided PyQt5 to ensure it's something related to your conda installation and not your system.

                            @SGaist I did that earlier today. Specifically, I used "conda create" to create an env with no specific packages specified. I then opened anaconda-navigator and added a single package, Pandas. Using the terminal on the activated env, I used "pip install pyqt5". At the command prompt of the activated env, I entered python app-path. The interface opened with distortions as follows:

                            1. The text on buttons extends beyond the bounds of the buttons.
                            2. It is impossible to click on the title bar and drag the window.
                            3. No buttons or menu items work except for a "Start Here" button that pops up a message dialog.
                            4. Previously, I had thought that the window was larger than 1920x1080, but the size is correct.
                            5. If I kill the terminal, then the window can be moved by clicking and dragging the title bar. It can then be closed with the window close button.

                            Sorry not to enclose a picture of the screen, but I am using an apple keyboard, which ,according to my knowledge, does not have a print screen button.

                            In response to an above post, I installed Qt6. Do you think it might be worthwhile installing pyqt6 and creating an environment as described above?

                            Thanks very much for your patience.

                              Did more work to completely eliminate conda and vs code as you suggested.
                              Used python to create a virtual env.
                              pip installed pyqt5.
                              Tested it with simple hello world app and it worked.
                              pip installed pandas.
                              at the env prompt entered python myapp path.
                              Initially it worked but with window problems described earlier.
                              Re edited fonts with new Qt6 designer and font problems disappeared. My recollection is that I did this earlier. Don't know why it didn't work before.
                              Changed min win size to 0x0. Now the window close button became visible (was off screen before) and the window could be closed.

                              Evidently, there is some problem with conda. I was reluctant to abandon conda since in the past it was the only way we could get pandas installed with some other packages. Fortunately pandas and pyqt5 are coinstallable with the standard approach.

                              Many thanks to all for suggestions and patience with a newcomer.
