I ran into the exact same problem on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE 5. Downloaded the latest rpm from the releases page. Unable to login with my user. Was able to login as root and tried to clear my .cache
and .config
folders in my users home dir but that didn't help.
phew thought I was the only one this had happened to (nothing came up in a google search) hence the starting of this issue report. I have another laptop that had exactly the same issue I'm going to see if i can replicate it over christmas and do some tty investigation.
Hi, i am running Kubuntu 23.10 and had the same error, as well as hangs whenever launching an Appimage, as well as random hangs after installation, possibly related to #618, but with higher intensity, sometimes freezing the entire desktop multiple minutes. @Misoder i had luck clearing both .cache and .config, but sometimes it didn't work then either. Clearing (both+).local fixed all of these cases. Since this is quite old i am guessing this is to late to help, and you can't test this fix?
Can you confirm that this is an issue with appimagelauncherd? I can't reproduce the issue at the moment.
I upgraded from latest version of Kubuntu 23.10 to just released Kubuntu 24.04 and faced with same issue. I use sddm and X11
I use ~/Appications
folder for apps

I have 10 apps in ~/Application folder but I didn't change apps before upgrade from Kubuntu 23.10 to 24.04
plasmashell_x11 uses 100% of cpu and hangs
Rename Applications_old

Allications
to Applications_old
~/.local/share
I plan to compare .local/share
folder before and after renamting folder to Applications
for changes
I have encountered similar to what @krom experienced on a clean installation of Kubuntu 24.04, albeit with the home directory of my user copied over from the install of my previous computer, which was running Kubuntu 22.04.
Immediately after dragging and dropping a new appimage into the folder that I have monitored for auto-installation (~/appimage), the system starts to hang. I dropped into another TTY and ran htop and found that one of the CPU cores was fully pegged at 100% for the process /usr/bin/kded5
, and mem usage creeping up. Then after a reboot I encountered what @krom experienced - startplasma_x11 pegs a core at 100%, and mem usage creeps up.
The solution I found was similar, but a bit more targeted. I took the following steps, some of which I took as suggestion from this forum post which referenced this post.
~/appimage
~/.local/share/mime/packages
~/.local/share/mime/mime.cache
After that all is well, and I rebuilt my mime cache using the update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime
command referenced in the second post.
I attempted to install both the current stable release, and the latest continuous build from the releases page, same behavior with both when attempting to drag and drop an appimage into ~/appimage
.
I also noticed these things during my replication of the issue:
appimagekit_
(sorry I don't have the full filenames) in the ~/.local/share/mime/packages
folder And during the second attempt, they were the only files in the packages folder.cat ~/.local/share/mime/mime.cache
, somewhere during it's output to my screen the character set rendered to the terminal would go all wonky, and wouldn't be fixed until reboot. Not sure if that's related but including it as interesting.Operating System: Kubuntu 24.04

I compared the catalogs and came to a similar conclusion with @dptsolutions
Looks like is needed to check how to applauncher creates files in ~/.local/share/applications
I also added files to ~/appimage
one at a time and checked, at first everything was fine, then it broke on a certain file
Wanted to confirm that this still happens.

I did also observe that when the error popup came and I pressed Developer information, It showed me a list of required packages that weren't installed. All the required packages had something with Qt5. I could experiment and go back to get the full list instead of going off memory...
Edit: I misremembered what happened when I restarted my computer for the first time.
This is not a fix, but i am now running Gearlever on my Desktop to manage my appimages, and it works great, i think i prefer it's gui over appimagelaunchers in some situations. On my Laptop i am still running appimagelauncher without problems. (Even though at some points i had the same appimages installed on both)
