the gui doesn't launch

[Pascale42]

Hello,

I have some trouble with opening the params.py files: the template gui does not launch (for old and new files)
I reinstalled python 3.7 using Anaconda 2019.10 for my windows 64-bit system, and installed a fresh phy2 env.
Unfortunately, the command "phy template-gui params.py --debug" doesn't display a thing.
Any idea on what is wrong?

Best !

Any error message in the terminal?

[Pascale42]

nope, just... nothing

[rossant]

could you post a screenshot of your screen after you launched "phy template-gui params.py --debug" ?

Here it is:

I've tried to run it with a couple of different files that were generated (and analyzed) a year ago
This is the same outcome for each of them, even for recent files where Kilosort was run few days ago

OK, can you try this? By running the GUI from a Python script instead of the terminal you might see error messages

Hello everyone,
I'm having the same issue and I tried the instructions on the link.
But the issue persists -- I believe it fails at this import:

from phy.apps.template import template_gui

Looking at the output of print(dir(phy)) apps doesn't seem to be accessible :

['Bunch', 'IPlugin', 'StringIO', '__author__', '__builtins__', '__cached__', '__doc__', '__email__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__', '__version__', '__version_git__', '_git_version', 'atexit', 'connect', 'discover_plugins', 'emit', 'get_plugin', 'load_master_config', 'logger', 'logging', 'on_exit', 'op', 'sys', 'test', 'unconnect', 'utils']

Thank you so much in advance!
