Installation on cocalc.com

[billpage]

I have compiled, installed and frequently use a standalone version of FriCAS (not the package embedded in SageMath) in a project on https://cocalc.com so I just tried to install jfricas there in the normal way using pip3 install jfricas. The install seemed to run normally without errors and the FriCAS kernel does appear in the list of kernels when I create a new Jupyter worksheet, however when I try to execute a FriCAS command Jupyter hangs waiting to display the result.

The default Jupyter interface on CoCalc is a bit different than the one in standalone Jupyter notebook so I also tried running Jupyter in what CoCalc calls "native mode" but with essentially the same result except that I also get a pop-up message saying that the FriCAS kernel has crashed. Restarting the FriCAS kernel does not help.

Do you have any ideas what might be going wrong here and/or suggestions on how to start debugging this? Should I attach logs or screenshots? Are there particular tests or a debug mode I could use to help isolate the problem? Should I try doing something different to install jfricas on CoCalc? Perhaps there is a manual step my step installation procedure?

I am also willing to provide shared access to a dedicated test project on CoCalc to debug this since that is likely to be a bit faster than an unfunded project. Ultimately it would be good to convince the CoCalc developers to include FriCAS and jfricas at the system level so that it is easily available to everyone.

Does this problem persist if you follow the instruction from http://hemmecke.org/fricas/dist/1.3.7/ ?
