SuperDirt ERROR: Class not defined

Hello!

Installation of SuperDirt appears to have completed successfully. Not sure where to start with troubleshooting this one. Any thoughts?

sc3> SuperDirt.start

I see you started SuperDirt

Did you re-compile your class library?

In supercollider, goto language > recompile class library

Albert · 25 April 2021 04:34

Thats right, I attempted to start it.

I just tried re-compiling the class library per your suggestion. See below for output. It looks like there are a ton of errors upon booting the IDE before I get a chance to re-compile.

This is my first time booting scide as I'm working from terminal CLI. My setup is a Pi3 where I have installed SC and I am logging into the Pi over a serial terminal session on a vintage machine (Compaq Portable III). But i've managed to enable the GUI and hook up a monitor for the purpose of troubleshooting.

hey welcome back

to get an idea how much help I can provide, what os are you running on the pi3, and how did you install Supercollider on this os (ie from packages/build from source/other)?

Albert · 28 April 2021 01:39

Hi Cleary!

I'm on Raspbian Version 10. I don't recall which method I used to install SuperCollider as I am picking this project back up from over a year ago.

I think it best I start fresh and wipe this drive with a fresh OS install. Any recommendations on which method to use for installing SuperCollider?

cleary · 28 April 2021 03:33

Keep it simple, stick with the package manager

sudo apt install supercollider sc3-plugins sc3-plugins-language \
    sc3-plugins-server jackd2 cabal-install haskell-platform

Once you've done that, I've documented my process in ansible tasks here - I haven't tested explicitly on a raspberry pi yet, but they work across all debian based distros I've tried (ubuntu 18.04 - 21.10, debian 8/9, mints etc)

If you don't want to get your hands dirty with the nitty gritty, you could just try running the tidal only playbook from here:

Albert · 28 April 2021 18:00

Excellent. Thank you for this!
