It seems that our backend system may be causing issues with viewing screenshots. In any case, I did not see the fatal error that you are experiencing.

Initially, I thought you were using version 9.0 based on the message "OS version: 9" mentioned in your fatal error. However, that does not appear to be the case.

Since you are not using our supported OS, you will need to downgrade the OS to Red Hat version 9.1 or lower. Installing on an unsupported OS can result in numerous issues, as we have not performed any validation on unsupported OS versions. Therefore, it is essential for you to choose a supported OS to avoid any potential issues in the future.

    Hi Kenny Tan,

    Downgrading the OS to Red Hat version 9.1 or lower, would require an exception, because our images are always upgraded to latest available (security related).

    I'd appreciate if you can prvovide some inputs related to "mprotect failed in ExecutableAllocator::makeExecutable: Permission denied " , at least pointing out if it's related to Qt or similar packages,

    otherwise we'll have to wait for 2024.x / 2025.x that can keep up with Enterprise Linux Life Cycle.

    Regards,

    Ale Cefo
