Unable to display tables

[Popolechien]

When opening https://library.kiwix.org/viewer#survivorlibrary.com_en_all via Kiwix for desktop (2.4.1 on Windows 11, but same result on Win10), tables do not appear and neither does their content.

See for instance here Accounting on Windows server:

https://library.kiwix.org/viewer#survivorlibrary.com_en_all/www.survivorlibrary.com/index.php/Accounting

and on Windows:

@benoit74 Not sure this is a zimit issue (I am yet to try on other platforms), so I'm pinging you just in case.

[benoit74]

It's probably not a zimit issue since it works on some readers.

[Popolechien]

Can't seem to be able to open it with Kiwix macOS or Kiwix-JS Chrome extension.

[benoit74]

Did you gave it a bit of time to load ? The ZIM is pretty big, so it might take some time for the libzim to return the content which has to be displayed.

[Popolechien]

That's what I figured. macOS straight up gives me an error message

Kiwix-JS just stays blank - it's been 10 minutes already.

[benoit74]

Apple problem looks like a download error. I cannot say for Kiwix-JS.

For those who wants to test same page on a much smaller ZIM, here it is:

tests_eng_survivorlibrary-accounting-page_2025-03.zip

(just replace .zip extension by .zim)

[Popolechien]

Well the file has been downloaded via torrent, so I would assume data checks out.

[benoit74]

Indeed

I'm having the same issue with https://library.kiwix.org/viewer#freecodecamp_en_all_2025-03 on linux mint 22.1 using kiwix desktop 2.3.1

I downloaded the "Survivor Library" (232 GB) two times thinking it was corrupted or something... But no, it look like a bug in Kiwix. I cannot show the tables that are supossed to show the books of the library. So the 232 GB library is rendered useless. Cannot survive anything if it does no work. Any idea what to do or if that bug will be repaired? I am on Windows 11 24H2, Kiwix v2.4.1 using Survivor Library 2025-03-17 232.36 GB Videos, Pictures.

OK, so I'm not able - at all - to reproduce the problem with Kiwix for iOS and version 2.4.1 for Linux of Kiwix-Desktop. So the only theory left is that this is a Windows specific problem!

@benoit74 Woudl be great if you could confirm everything is OK with your macOS.
