Linux Snap desktop app crashes and then won't launch #2577
Comments

I have the same issue with 1.12.4.0 running out of a snap on ubuntu. Seems to have broken after the latest update. I've got 1.12.2.1 running on debian with flatpak and that still works great. A little afraid to upgrade that now though. |
|
This issue is not present on the flatpak afaik. I have not had time to figure out what the issue with the snap is, though. |
|
fwiw I uninstalled the snap and installed it on the same machine via flatpak and it works fine for me too doing that. Seems likely a problem with the snap. |
|
I asked on the Discord and someone suggested trying one of the non-snap installation methods as well. I've been running with the flatpak version on Ubuntu like some of the people above and it seems to be fine so far for me, too. |

This may be the fix: https://snapcraft-alsa.readthedocs.io/en/latest/snapcraft_usage.html#snapcraft-usage |

I'm having this problem too. What I'm noticing is every time I receive a video and open the conversation to view it, it crashes. I have to OS: Ubuntu Desktop 23.10.1 (also tested and happens on 22.04) In case it helps, I found this in journalctl right after it crashed: `Nov 10 16:37:16 jdn3343 gnome-shell[121246]: JS ERROR: 76df6e00-802a-11ee-8d84-bd5f508c5ae8 unable to update icon: TypeError: oldIcon.equals is not a function Nov 10 16:37:16 jdn3343 systemd[2172]: snap.bluebubbles.bluebubbles-90c38f66-d716-402d-81b5-289df3b98f9d.scope: Consumed 1.065s CPU time.` |
Messages with videos attached seemed to be a trigger for me, too, and I have the same setup as you. Using the flatpak version as some here suggested has been stable for me. |
I'm glad the flatpak version works better. It hasn't crashed due to media issues but it does seem to have a major memory leak issue 😂, for me at least. After it filled up swap and 16G memory, computer of course crashed. If anyone has trouble with that, take a look here for systemd flatpak/flatpak#3439 (credits and sincere thanks) In case it saves somebody time... Save and quit. You can check if that worked out with You should see something like `Memory: 97.0M (max: 300.0M available: 202.9M) The app seems to figure itself out without crashing and, more importantly, crippling the computer. |

I looked into the snap issues and was unable to find a fix. There are also issues because of strict confinement for things like the webview for Google login not working. I'll have to investigate if these issues can be resolved by switching to classic confinement. And @jdn3343 I'm fairly certain the memory issues are fixed internally, but could you open a separate github ticket to track that. |

For now I'm going to fix this by removing the in-app video playback functionality if the app detects it is running as a snap. The videos can be opened with the system video viewer. Sign in with Google on the snap client will also be disabled because communication between a webview window and a snap doesn't seem to work in strict confinement. However, after manually entering the url/password, the firebase configuration will still be fetched and everything will work normally. To avoid these inconveniences, please switch to the flatpak version. These drawbacks will be mentioned in the snap store listing beginning with the 1.12.5 release. Relevant commit: 5f1031b |

Fixed Internally
Lately, I've been having a problem where the Linux desktop app will crash. Not sure exactly what triggers it but it is usually after sending or receiving a message (i.e., it doesn't seem to just happen out of nowhere when there is no activity). Then, when I try to relaunch, it will immediately crash again, and the only way I can seem to get it to launch again is by removing the app via snap and reinstalling/reconfiguring the app. Below is the information I get when launching it from a terminal that seems most relevant, leading right up to the crash (there are a bunch of debug messages that precede this that I left out, since they include phone numbers, etc., and hopefully aren't related to the problem). Running on Ubuntu 23.04. The Android app seems to work fine, and I don't see any errors on my Mac (Ventura) desktop with BlueBubbles 1.80.
