maudrid commented 1 week ago

Please confirm the following.

[x] I checked the existing issues for duplicate problems
[x] I have tried resolving the issue using the support portal
[x] I have ensured my Modrinth App installation is up to date

What version of the Modrinth App are you using?

0.8.8_amd64

What operating systems are you seeing the problem on?

Linux

Describe the bug

I have 2 Linux mint machines with the same version of the OS. I downloaded the AppImage of Modrinth from the website. On one of the machines it works flawlessly. On the other one I can launch it, log into the minecraft account. I can click round the settings page and I was even able to install a modpack from the home page and launch it successfully, but if I click on "Browse" button, the app locks up. Without the search function I'm stuck with only being able to install "Popular packs" on the home screen.

I have tried installing all OS updates and rebooting the OS.

Steps to reproduce

Launch the App
Click on "Browse".

Expected behavior

See the list of mod packs.

Additional context

By adding the RUST_LOG=trace env variable I have produced a trace log file. I'm attaching it to this issue. session_20241013_145909.log

I can't reproduce this issue on Gentoo with GNOME. Could you provide more details about your desktop environment, WebKitGTK version, etc.? Does this problem also occur when you try to open logs? What exactly happens during the freeze - is the entire UI unresponsive? Do hover effects stop working? Do you still see the UI, or does it turn gray/white?

maudrid commented 1 week ago

The entire UI become unresponsive. If I minimize the app and restore the window again, it is white. No painting is happening. I can't get to the logs to open because it freezes when I try to open the a mod pack's details. Many times when it freezes, it will show a partially filled green progress bar at the top. If I open the mod pack details, it paints the details on the left o f the screen, but the right of the screen where the list of mods should be showing up is not populated before the freeze.

If you want me to collect info about the linux environment, please let me know what commands you would like me to run for you.

Norbiros commented 1 week ago

Run those commands:

dpkg -l | grep libwebkit2gtk
dpkg -l | grep libgtk
echo $XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP
echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE

It's probably another weird webkit bug... Also, could you maybe try other versions of our app (for example from flatpack)?

@maudrid, does your experience align with the section about the AppImage in https://github.com/modrinth/code/issues/2515#issuecomment-2417901822?

[the `.AppImage`](https://launcher-files.modrinth.com/versions/0.8.9/linux/Modrinth%20App_0.8.9_amd64.AppImage) has a different problem - when I access the undermentioned: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/c0d5fd45-c24a-4634-af15-f46d5c82a0cb ...it indefinitely hangs.

Yes. This looks very similar to what I'm seeing, except that I don't get far enough to be able to click on the logs, this happens before I can get to that part. Here is the information you asked for:

The app auto-updated, but has the same issue still
After freezing, I left it running for some time and then the whole system froze. Not sure it is related.
