I am trying to run Metabase on my localhost. Everything seems to build successfully when I run the generated metabase.jar file. But when I access the localhost:3000 all I get is a blank screen. I need some help.
Hi @makwasi
That’s difficult to tell, since you’re not providing a lot of information - no information from logs or console.
What happens if you run one of the official builds instead of your own, can you then access it (meaning, is it a problem in your browser)?
Please post the output of the following, and also include any errors from logs or browser console:
# OS and version
sed -nE 's/^PRETTY_NAME="([^"]+)"$/\1/p' /etc/os-release
# Git branch and commit
echo `git status | head -1 && git log -1 --format="commit %H"`
# Java version and architecture
java -version
# Java variable configuration
echo $JAVA_HOME
# Java path configuration
echo $PATH | grep --color=never -oe "/usr/lib/jvm/[^:]*"
# Lein version
lein --version
# NodeJS version
nodejs --version
# Yarn version
yarn --version
Thanks for the quick response. When I run the official builds they run very well am using Chrome browser.

# Git branch and commit

@makwasi Try building the tag v0.37.0.2 without any modifications - if that works, then you know the problem is one of your own changes.

Update I managed to solve the issue. It was one concerning inline scripts in chrome so I installed a CSP extension to bypass the problem. I hope this is the right thing to do.
Thanks, @flamber for your support.
Hi makwasi, I am having the same issue after following the instructions here : Building Metabase
the front end is white blank, but I can see it running.
Could you tell me which extension you used to resolve the issue? I am using the latest release, cloned directly today without any modifications
