v4.46.0 AppImage no UI

[nbun]

Running the AppImage (Arch, KDE Wayland) using remote debugging gives the following errors in the console.

screencast.js:1 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'url')
    at b._requestNavigationHistory (screencast.js:1:18111)
screencast.js:1 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'url')
    at b._requestNavigationHistory (screencast.js:1:18111)

The error doesn't appear with v4.45.0. In the relevant function, the error seems to occur because e = {currentIndex = -1, entries: Array(0)}, which is not covered by the return condition.

async _requestNavigationHistory() {
        const e = this._resourceTreeModel ? await this._resourceTreeModel.navigationHistory() : null;
        if (!e)
            return;
        this._historyIndex = e.currentIndex,
        this._historyEntries = e.entries,
        this._navigationBack.disabled = 0 === this._historyIndex,
        this._navigationForward.disabled = this._historyIndex === this._historyEntries.length - 1;
        let t = this._historyEntries[this._historyIndex].url;
        const i = t.match(P);
        i && (t = i[1]),
        E.InspectorFrontendHostInstance.inspectedURLChanged(t),
        this._navigationUrl.value = decodeURI(t)
    }

[benma]

Thanks. What is the symptom in the app itself, is there a problem loading it? (With and without remote debugging enabled)

Does the error appear on startup or when you navigate somewhere?

[nbun]

Yes, upon starting the app I get a window with no content besides the white background. Debugging makes no difference in behavior.

[benma]

What if you launch without remote debugging? screencast.js sounds like a devtool? :thinking:

[nbun]

It's the same, I only used the debugging mode to search for a possible cause. The app logs the following stdout.

The last entry might be the actual culprit?

[benma]

No, that last entry is not the culprit.

This might be:

qt.qpa.plugin: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "wayland" in ""

There seems to be an issue with wayland :thinking: I'll get back to you.

[nbun]

v4.45.0 works for me while having the same warning.

The other stuff beginning with qt.webenginecontext: is not shown, for some reason.

[benma]

Good to know, thanks. The other stuff is new due to the upgrade of Qt from 5.15 to 6.2

[benma]

@nbun

could you try extracting the appimage using --appimage-extract? Then launch ./BitBox in the extracted folder.

Also pls let me know the output of ldd ./BitBox

[nbun]

The window is still empty, ldd gives the following output.

Hmm, nothing unusual there.

Could you try this build? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1zHb5Cp2Ph6SQHokN8_IZJvlsJw3yvZFw/view?usp=sharing

It's the same but compiled with

view->page()->setDevToolsPage(nullptr); 

in main.cpp. Maybe it works to disable the devtools. The other approach we could try is to update the Qt version.

By the way, we tested the app on X11 and Wayland on Fedora and Ubuntu and Debian and it worked fine everywhere, so your issue is quite puzzling.

[nbun]

The custom build or switching to X11 didn't help, unfortunately. However, when I run the app as root, it works.

The window also opens in a different size compared to running without root. I had assumed that such settings are stored in ~/.config/bitbox (which I've deleted before), but apparently something else is going on. Setting XDG_RUNTIME_DIR to be empty didn't make a difference running as non-root either.

[benma]

How about trying as a different user other than root?

You could also try moving ./config/bitbox to ./config/bitbox.backup, and see if a fresh data dir fixes it. If so, something got corrupted in there.

[nbun]

HOME=... ./BitBox... fixes the issue if I use a directory other than my home directory. Weirdly, the issue persists deleting .config/bitbox in my home directory. So some other configuration file must be relevant to this issue.

[benma]

Very interesting. I was almost certain after your previous post that it's something in the datadir, but apparently not :sweat_smile:

What if you tried renaming these?

• ~/.cache/Shift Crypto/
• ~/.local/share/Shift Crypto
