Running Ribbon without internet access

Hello,

I am trying to get Ribbon to work on Ubuntu 18.04.0 with sandboxed user account and no access to the internet.

The Ribbon webpage loads up fine, however nothing really happens when loading a pair of bam + bai files. Looking at the Firefox developer console we can see the Uncaught TypeError: _CLI is null error popping up upon selecting the two files. Firefox version is 101.0.1 64bit.

The two files are located in a shared folder the user has R access to it.

I would really appreciate your help to figure this out and hopefully get it resolved. See the screenshot of the error below this message.

Regards

Hey @robertaboukhalil ,

I downloaded the offline-mode branch directly and its now working. Thanks a lot for your help 😃

Hmm, it looks like you’re on the offline branch but with the code from main. Running git status should just show On branch offline-mode without any of the lines that say modified or deleted.

Can you try git stash then git pull origin offline-mode and see if that makes git status look different.

Alternatively, you can download the offline mode branch code as a zip file and try again in a new folder: https://github.com/MariaNattestad/Ribbon/archive/refs/heads/offline-mode.zip
