9 years ago Sozi runs on top of a web browser engine called NW.js (formerly node-webkit). The SUID sandbox error is displayed when running the NW.js executable. When you rebuild Sozi from source using the provided instructions, only the JavaScript application is rebuilt. The building process still pulls the official binaries of NW.js.
Do you know how I can solve or bypass this issue?
I have the same message every time I run Sozi. As far as I can tell, it does not prevent the application from running correctly.
The other messages could be the reason why it does not run. I'll get back to you to have more details.

Hi,
I've tried for the first time the Sozi15 64bits for linux, but I've got the following error as soon as I runned it
"[8303:0722/224739:ERROR:browser_main_loop.cc(170)] Running without the SUID sandbox! See https://code.google.com/p/chromium/wiki/LinuxSUIDSandboxDevelopment for more information on developing with the sandbox on."
I haven't installed the dependencies before running (It would probably be a good idea to link the git readme to the website download page such that anyone knows the required dependencies. =).
Still, I was not able to use the new Sozi. I had the same SUID sandbox issue. Hence, I decided to build Sozi from source. I used the README install guide which is pretty good. Still, I had to do the following 1) sudo apt-get install nodejs npm (missed the npm package) 2) Using bower, you may get the following error "usr/bin/env: node: No such file or directory" This hapends because other linux distros install node js into /usr/bin/node, and you have to do in order to fix this is to create a symlink: (see, http://www.smartinfoblog.com/how-to-install-bower-on-ubuntu/) ln -s /usr/bin/nodejs /usr/bin/node
3) bower is not allowed to run as sudo, but it has permission issues. To avoid then, use sudo bower --allow-root install
The new Sozi has been build succesfully, but when trying to run Sozi in 64bits for linux, I've got the same error message about the SUID sandbox.
Do you know how I can solve or bypass this issue? I'm not quite sure how important is the SUIDSandbox issue, but I've also got the following error which I think is indeed a big deal :/
