As requested by @TheAssassin over at https://github.com/TheAssassin/AppImageLauncher/issues/249, posting this here as well:

Getting a ton of ERROR: not an AppImage, skipping. However, the AppImages can be launched just fine.

Headers seem to be ok, at least some of the AppImages have the 0x414902 magic bytes for type-2 images:

Please provide some AppImages for analysis. I need to try to reproduce this.

Cannot reproduce the issue with an up-to-date release. You haven't provided any information about the distros you tried nor the version. Please add more details.

TheAssassin commented 4 years ago

Will have to be closed soon due to lack of information.

TheAssassin commented 4 years ago

Can't you at least provide the version you tested?

Thanks!

I'm having a similar issue I think? The appimage (Kotatogram Desktop, build downloaded here) runs perfectly, but AppImageLauncher insists that it's not an AppImage. image

I'm running latest PPA version of AppImageLauncher (202010290529-stable-0f91801~ubuntu20.04.1) on Kubuntu 20.04. Not sure if I should have posted this here or at the AppImageLauncher repo or both.

The thing lacks the magic bytes and is, per the specification, not to be considered an AppImage. It should not carry that extension. Also, it's shipped in a tarball for some reason, which is discouraged.
