Post subject: | ALT + W no longer working on upgrading to 8.3 |
I was happily running 8.2 and then recently did the upgrade via pacman to 8.3. Everything went swimmingly however I only just today tried to use ALT + W to open Chrome and I get the message the Chrome is not installed. Confirming with Pacman that it is in fact installed, I tried a reinstallation however this has made no difference. Can someone help me correct this slight aberration? Cheers |

Open a term and try to run google-chrome to see what the error is. I have seen a couple of instances where an upgraded machine may be missing a value in /etc/machine-id. I am not sure what is deleting it yet but you can regen it with Code: sudo systemd-machine-id-setup

Recently did a R8.3 ISO update and my /etc/machine-id was also a zero byte file. Had to run Code: sudo systemd-machine-id-setup To populate the file as well. |

Hmmm. My /etc/machine-id file also has 0 bytes but my ALT + W works fine. |

I did try the software from the command line on the way out the door to work and it did mention about the machine-id. I have since run the command to generate the file but this has only had partial success. When I run google-chrome from the command line it works fine, however when I use ALT + W it starts Chome but after a few seconds it closes and the message pops up again that Chrome is not installed. When you reopen Chrome it knows it crashed as it asks you to restore previous session. What next? |

Alt + W runs this: Code: /usr/bin/google-chrome --no-first-run Run that from the command line and see what errors.

Clean install of 8.3 Note: My /etc/machine-id file has 0 bytes, I ran this command in root directory and then tried it in /etc same results. Code: [root@mythtv ect]# sudo systemd-machine-id-setup sudo: systemd-machine-id-setup: comand not found [root@mythtv ect]# Code: [root@mythtv]# /usr/bin/google-chrome --no-first-run

I had the systemd command spelled wrong. machine ID is now 33 bytes New run of google-chrome the error code # changed from 085011 to 133312 Code: [root@mythtv]# /usr/bin/google-chrome --no-first-run

I tried the command as directed and it ran fine, there was some output and it was: Code: [24102:24102:0702/080243:ERROR:url_pattern_set.cc(240)] Invalid url pattern: chrome://print/* Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file [WARNING:flash/platform/pepper/pep_module.cpp(63)] SANDBOXED I exited chrome and tried the ALT + W again and it worked fine as well. So I am unsure of what happened but it appears to working at the moment. |

Tried again the other day and the original issue reappeared. When I get the opportunity I will attempt to get the details out of a terminal so that we have something to work with. Watch this space. |
