CWP Pro Terminal Fails to load with a blank (black) Screen

I have a fix for this but oddly enough the CWP forums refuse to let me post it on here with a 403 forbidden error. If you want this fixed reply to this forum topic and I will help you get it done. It's not hard, but it just looks like CWP does NOT want you/me/anyone posting code here for fixing issues with their platform. To those out there that are gonna say it....yes I tried using the CODE enclosures.....they don't work.

In general the problem has to do with GCC and G++ being too old (4.5 I believe) and needs to be updated to 7. But that isn't enough, you also have to rip out the old remnants of the failed install the botched up.

I honestly don't understand why this has been an issue for so long as it's not hard to fix. It did take me a whole week to track down though.

If you are having issues with this reply to this forum topic and I will help you with it. CWP is not on a fast track to fix this.

Ah Ha!...so below is a link to my github repo to show the replacement "install_terminal" script that actually works. Use it at your own risk!

If anyone has recently used my script then please run this command to fix a system error which WILL stop netdata from properly installing.

!!!BE SURE TO REMOVE THE SPACES IN THE FILE PATH AT THE END!!!

Code: [Select]

sed -ri 's#(.*)(\$)(gccversion)(.*)#\17\4#' / etc / profile
This will fix the / etc / profile where

Code: [Select]

source /opt/rh/devtoolset-$gccversion/enable was inserted at the end of the file instead of

Code: [Select]

source /opt/rh/devtoolset-7/enable

Thank you so much.

I finally got it to work after three years!

Thank you.
