Hello everyone myself Manish I am new here and want to join the community, So i was setting up my environment in the WSL ubuntu (since i did’t found any docs about setting Collabora in my native windows 11), and I was facing some issues , after i build using $make and ran make run , these were my logs :- https://paste.debian.net/hidden/6e3c21fc , I noticed that the links for the edit mode and the readonly mode don’t work its shows this in the webpage :- Error: 404 - file not found!
There seems to be a problem locating /browser/26.04.0.1/debug.html
Please contact your system administrator. , (the admin, monitoring… pages seem to work fine) , would appreciate a little help regarding my setup, thanks in advance
hi @Manish05
So sorry to hear about the build not working. Below are few reasons that might be the issue here…
Most likely the browser frontend was not built correctly, so /browser/26.04.0.1/debug.html is missing/broken.
Inside the online/ directory try:
make clean
./autogen.sh
make -j$(nproc)
make run
Also make sure node and npm are installed in WSL:
node --version
npm --version
You can also check if the file actually exists:
ls browser/26.04.0.1/debug.html
Since admin/monitoring pages work, the server is probably fine and only the browser assets are missing.
I would also recommend using a native Linux distro if you are planning to contribute long-term to open source projects. Linux is generally much better suited for development workflows, debugging, building large projects, and contributing upstream compared to Windows/WSL setups.
