Troubleshooting

Flatpak

If flatpak run net.zoite.Zoitechat only prints Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display, collect extra diagnostics with:

flatpak run --devel --command=sh net.zoite.Zoitechat

Then inside that shell:

echo "DISPLAY=$DISPLAY WAYLAND_DISPLAY=$WAYLAND_DISPLAY XDG_SESSION_TYPE=$XDG_SESSION_TYPE"
xdpyinfo >/tmp/xdpyinfo.log 2>&1 || true
env G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all zoitechat 2>&1 | tee /tmp/zoitechat-debug.log

To inspect sandbox permissions from the host:

flatpak info --show-permissions net.zoite.Zoitechat
flatpak override --user --show net.zoite.Zoitechat

If needed, try running with direct access to your active display stack:

# X11 sessions
flatpak override --user --socket=x11 net.zoite.Zoitechat

# Wayland sessions
flatpak override --user --socket=wayland net.zoite.Zoitechat

You can reset overrides after testing:

flatpak override --user --reset net.zoite.Zoitechat

Theme palette migration and legacy keys

New builds store theme colors as semantic token keys in colors.conf (for example theme.mode.light.token.mirc_0). When loading old configs that only contain legacy keys (color_* and dark_color_*), ZoiteChat migrates them automatically if theme.palette.semantic_migrated is not present.

By default saves write both semantic token keys and legacy keys for compatibility. To phase out legacy writes, set:

export ZOITECHAT_THEME_WRITE_LEGACY_KEYS=0

With that setting, saves write semantic token keys only while legacy-key loading remains available for older config files that have not yet been marked as migrated.
