After successful install of glue-wwt, the plugin does not appear anywhere in Glue

[SCO-SCI]

Problem:

After a successful instal of glue-wwt into conda environment, the plugin does not appear as a viewer option nor does it appear in the plugin manager window.

To Reproduce:

1. In conda environment where Glue is installed, type: 'conda install -c glueviz glue-wwt'

2. Respond 'y' to 'Proceed?' question.

3. Upon successful install, type 'glue'

Expected Behavior:

According to documentation, wwt should appear as a viewer option. Possibly wwt would also appear in the 'plugin manager' window. However, it does not appear in either.

UPDATE 7/21/2024:

I have been trying some possible fixes to this problem, including the use of Python 3.9 instead of 3.8 and installing a different version of Glue. On Python 3.9 and Glue 1.2.2, Glue works fine. Even the 'double-listing' of viewers, shown in the earlier screen print, is fixed. But when I try to install the wwt plugin I get some errors.

This is my current environment:

Operating System: Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2
Anaconda Version: 24.5.0
Python Version: 3.9.19
Glue Version: 1.2.2

I used the following command to install wwt:

conda install -c glueviz glue-wwt

That command caused the following error messages:

I did some digging with my favorite AI buddy and obtained this possible explanation for the problem:

1. What Caused These Errors?
   The errors were caused by conflicts and incompatibilities between the versions of packages required by the glue-wwt plugin and the existing packages in your conda environment. Specifically, the package notebook-7.0.8 requires a non-existent package package_has_been_revoked, which creates a dependency resolution problem.

2. What Software Component Issued These Error Messages?
   The error messages were issued by the conda package manager while trying to resolve dependencies and install the glue-wwt plugin. The LibMambaUnsatisfiableError indicates that the dependency solver (libmamba) could not find a compatible set of packages to satisfy the environment specifications.

I am open to suggestions..

Hi Ed,

Could you try running glue in verbose mode (glue -v) and report the terminal output here?

Looking at the version info that you've posted, I suspect there's a version compatibility issue, as glue-wwt 0.5 and pywwt 0.14.0 are a bit old, but seeing the verbose output should help pinpoint the issue.

[SCO-SCI]

Certainly. The full log is attached.

I received a different behavior this time for some reason. The messages shown in my previous update did not occur. Instead, the error message I received was:

INFO:glue:Loading plugin wwt failed (Exception: The QtWebEngineWidgets module was not found. It must be installed separately as PyQtWebEngine.)

The wwt plugin does show in the 'plugin manager' dialog and it is checked. However, it is not presented as a viewer option when opening a file in glue.

INFO:glue:Loading plugin wwt failed (Exception: The QtWebEngineWidgets module was not found. It must be installed separately as PyQtWebEngine.)

I'm not sure why the web engine widgets package didn't get pulled in, but you'll need to install either PyQtWebEngine (if you're using Qt5) or PyQt6-WebEngine (for Qt6), and that will hopefully fix the problem.

Thank you. That worked great.
