All latest snapshots hang up by calling context menu
-
Hello, it started several days ago - when I press right button in a text field, it just hangs up.
I thought something was broken in the last snapshot, so I tried all till 1.14.1042.3 - the same issue, I guess it must be something with my Linux.
what information can/should I gather to track it down? (I've tried strace, but it dump TONS of 'very useful' information).
I am on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS
currently on Vivaldi 1.14.1042.3 snapshot (which also hangs up).The issue is not reproducible for the last stable.
Thank you in advance.

I can not confirm such issue on my Ubuntu 16 LTS.
Any Chrome extensions running when this happens?
Try with a temporary test profile.
Open Terminal as user
start vivaldi withvivaldi --user-data-dir=/tmp/V-TEST/
Is the issue gone then?
-
@gwen-dragon thank you for the prompt reply. I forgot to mention - yes, I disabled all extensions. I've rechecked once again - the same issue.
however with a pure profile it works. withvivaldi-snapshot --user-data-dir=/tmp/V-TEST/
is there any log I can check? or maybe I can run it with some debug to collect it?
Thanks!

As it works with a clean install, then issue you are having lies on your profile.

Then you have a broken profile and should rework it with a Profile Reset.
You can restore these files:- Notes
- Login Data
- Bookmarks

Well, I already backed up everything from the profile directory, but wanted to avoid it)
if there are no magic log file to sort it out - let's do it(Ok. I know what it is.
It is 90MB Notes file. Which I really need.

Sorry for you. There is no log file.
You may start your Vivaldi from shell and have a look on error messaged why it hangs.

@gwen-dragon It was the first thing I've tried, nothing there.
It gets stuck on parsing Notes file I assume

Then you may move the Notes* files out of config folder and retry start. So yiu can check if it is the Notes.
-
@gwen-dragon yes, I confirm it is because of this file.
perhaps context menu which has some points about Notes is parsing the file upon its activation.

That's correct.
I moved the main file from my profile. When Notes are back to the folder, the shell displays the errors messages below[6595:6595:0130/110033.550345:ERROR:notes_model_associator.cpp(715)] Notes datatype error was encountered: Cannot associate sync node svGhBZZFjocDpHNjsd/dRmg==/59261e2e-448f-4592-9ad2-602e253deda3 with invalid url and title [6595:6595:0130/110033.550391:ERROR:notes_model_associator.cpp(715)] Notes datatype error was encountered: Cannot associate sync node svGhBZZFjocDpHNjsd/dRmg==/5c84090a-4caf-46c6-bc2f-ab2da84af072 with invalid url and title

@razor79 please backup old Stable's Notes file first.config/vivaldi/Default/Notes* .
Do the Notes from Snapshot open in with Stable if copied to .config/vivaldi/Default/ ?
-
@gwen-dragon stable hung up as well.
I wonder how it could became so big. I store nothing except for pieces of text.
-
@razor79 Sometimes Notes add screenshots to the text. Look at the bottom of any Notes.
-
@lamarca you may read my posts incorrectly. the issue is file size, not its absence or presence.
will check if it started doing it by itself .
-
@razor79 It is important if a Notes file crashes!
Are your Notes containing something you could not share with Devs to check internally why Snapshot crashes?

For Notes you can set to store screenshot of website notes, that may make the file large. See vivaldi → Settings → panel
-
@gwen-dragon no, sorry, i can share this.
Is this setting ON by default? ( I am currently lost with profile settings %) If yes- it can be the reason.I do not see images in the file (well, maybe just one).
btw, it could be related to sync option I've enabled not so long ago.
-
@razor79 Yes, adding screenshot is on by default.
Please report the bug tio Vivaldi.
Answer to report mail you get back and attach the Notes file.
We will check it internally (be shure, we never give your Notes to the public).Vivaldi should not crash because of large Notes file. That is a serious issue to be investigated and fixed.
-
next question - how to remove that big Notes file from the server , because I've got a not-working Vilaldi at home (it downloaded the file) because I am using Sync ? )
