[Debian 10 - KDE] Thunderbird 115.3.1 - Systray is One Time Running

[Feindfluglp]

On Thunderbird 115.3.1 is Systray one time running and than its buggy.

Start Thunbird its running and after hide and show its buggy. can´t after this not more hide in the taskbar.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Debian 10
• Architecture: 64 Bit
• Desktop type / Window Manager: KDE
• Thunderbird version and arch: 115.3.1 64 Bit
• Run echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE ..: X11
• Add-on version: 0.9.5
• App version: 0.9.5
• Install type: github repository build
• Used Qt library: default system repository

[Feindfluglp]

OK. Every now and then it happens more often, but then it goes crazy again and can no longer be hidden.

[Ximi1970]

Did some experimenting without even systray-x installed... Looks like Debian 10 broke Thunderbird somehow. If you minimize Thunderbird and then logout KDE (with auto save session on) you will not be able to maximize TB again when you login again. Only way to get it working again is to close TB using the taskbar by right clicking and selecting "close". Start it again from the menu and it is working again. Also tried it with the prebuild packages from the Thunderbird ftp site. Tried the 102.15.1 and the newest 115.3.2. Some strange behavior when minimized, logout and login again. Debian 11 and 12 are working just fine..... Maybe time to upgrade?

[Feindfluglp]

Interesting. But I won't upgrade my Debian for now. I'm satisfied and so far I don't have any other problems with the system. Is it possible for you to find out where the problem is? because it works, but only for a short time and then it goes crazy

[Ximi1970]

Please have a look at #159 This seems to work with Debian 10

[Ximi1970]

Firefox will also crash when saved minimized.....

[Feindfluglp]

ok. i test the workaround in the next day, thank you for your nice work :)

[Feindfluglp]

I tested it and the error still persists. The first time he hides it and then continues to screw around

[Feindfluglp]

just a note. If I go to the addon settings in Thunderbird, deactivate systray and activate it again I can hide it again. sometimes it only works once or several times before it goes crazy again.

[Ximi1970]

Can you post any (error) output from:

Tools -> Developer Tools -> "Click Ok on the hidden incomming connection dialog" -> Tab "Console"

Please remove the items that are private.

[Feindfluglp]

sry, i have installed a old thunderbird (102.11.0) and its running. can you tell me where the logs are? then I would send them to you.

[Ximi1970]

For TB 102 it is:

"Menu -> Tools -> Developer Tools -> Debug addons -> Find Systray-x in the window -> Click "Inspect" -> Select "Console" tab. Mark and copy the output to the clipboard, kate or any other editor.

and:

"Menu -> Tools -> Developer Tools -> Error Console Mark and copy the output to the clipboard, kate or any other editor.

[Feindfluglp]

is whit the thunderbird 115.3.1 the same in the report :)

[Ximi1970]

Thanks! But I cannot see any major error. The titlebar error is a remnant of the original "FireTray" addon. Still need to remove it.

Have you ever used any of the KDE "special" window / windows manager options you can find by right clicking on the titlebar icon on the leftside? (Right click -> More actions -> Configure special Windows / Application settings ?

[Feindfluglp]

I don't know exactly where you mean. Sounds to me like I never set anything there. but can't find what you mean.

[Ximi1970]

With the options found in these menus you can also manipulate the thunderbird windows. But this will interfere with the workings of systray-x.

[Ximi1970]

And hopefully you are not using any flatpak or snap package for TB....

[Ximi1970]

Please try to run the 'ldd' command in the directory where the SysTray-X binary resides and post the output.

more ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/SysTray_X.json

[Feindfluglp]

i use the native paket from debian, not flatpak and its only install native.

[Feindfluglp]

I've never been in the window/application settings. I don't even know the window

[Feindfluglp]

hmm, did you find the problem? found a solution?

[Ximi1970]

No, because I cannot even replicate your problem. And I cannot see any problems in the outputs. Maybe there is an library / app / plugin / setting you are using that causes the problem.

You could try the repository package but you really need to clean up the local build results first. So remove the addon from the TB "Add-ons and Themes", remove the file in: ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/SysTray_X.json. And restart TB afterwards and double check the addon is removed.

[Feindfluglp]

so i have install the new systray 0.9.6 and this is in console:

[Feindfluglp]

and now I can do whatever I want, it's no longer hidden. Before, it sometimes worked and sometimes it didn't.

[Ximi1970]

If you restart TB do you have still have these errors? Now it looks like there are two instances of SysTray-X running. The system one (working) and a local one for user 'debian' not working and causing the errors. But a not allowed error??

If there are still errors, please could you run:

ls -la /home/debian/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts

ls -la /home/debian/.thunderbird

ls -la /home/debian/.thunderbird/*.default/extensions

and post the outputs?

[Feindfluglp]

so, i have all new installed and this is the output: ls -la /home/debian/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts:

Looks like the companion app is not started for some reason. That generates the postMessage error. What happens if you run:

SysTray-X

do you get any response or does it just return without any message as it should?

Did you enable any extra security options for your system (like apparmor) or have you extra security tools running that would prevent an app launching another app? Are you using other Thunderbird plugins or add-ons?

Debugging a system remotely by slow chat is not easy....

SysTray-X

• No response

I didn't make any other settings, no other security software, nothing. So nothing that would prevent systray-x from starting. If I do the whole thing with Thunderbird 102, it works. I think it depends on the Thunderbird version.

I don't use any other Thunderbird addons, just systray-x.

I am just amazed by your problems. What ever I do in my default Debian 10 KDE virtual machine, it works just perfectly fine, no strange things.

You could try is this: Create a new user on your system, login as that user and start Thunderbird. Setup a new test mail account and look if SysTray-X works better with the new user.

You could also try to reset the SysTray-X preference storage in the addon preferences but I really cannot imaging how a bad storage could cause this strange behavior.

So, I have now deleted everything again or uninstalled it with purge. once restarted everything reinstalled and now it runs with the new thunderbird and systray-x 0.9.6 and hides again and can get it again. There are no more errors in the developer console.

I would like to thank you very much for your help :)
