Phantomjs: Exit code 127

[gustavohenke]

Hello,

I'm seeing the exit code 127 while running Phantom in GitLab CI environment. My project uses Karma to build (and most specifically, karma-phantomjs-launcher).

This is the log I have:

18 09 2015 17:51:35.447:INFO [launcher]: Starting browser PhantomJS
18 09 2015 17:51:35.447:DEBUG [temp-dir]: Creating temp dir at /tmp/karma-76412877

18 09 2015 17:51:35.498:DEBUG [launcher]: Process PhantomJS exited with code 127
18 09 2015 17:51:35.498:ERROR [launcher]: Cannot start PhantomJS

Server OS: Ubuntu 14.04.3

I just would like to know what this exit code means in Phantom, and how can I fix it.
Thank you in advance.

So, after reproducing the same environment in a docker container, I found that I was missing libfontconfig and libfreetype6.
After installing them via apt-get, Phantom is now running.

I had the same problem with Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit. Had to install the 32bit libraries:

sudo apt-get install libfontconfig:i386 libfreetype6:i386

Reference:

• error while loading shared libraries; cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Worked for me as well.

sudo apt-get install libfreetype6
sudo apt-get install libfontconfig

Thanks. Worked for me also. I was missing libfontconfig.
