Plexamp 3.0 not starting on Arch linux

Plexamp 3.0 doesn’t start on my Arch system. All packages updated. Electron is v8.2.2.
I’m not sure what is shipped with the AppImage or what else information might be helpful.

this is the terminal output
./Plexamp-3.0.0.AppImage

Seems possibly related to this issue reported on redhat, where glibc broke quite a lot of software (chrome, firefox, openssh, etc). I will ask someone more familiar with build tools if something needs to be changed for linux here.

I’ve also seen Arch users mentioning downgrading to Electron 8.0.0 for other AppImages.

I’m trying to sort out my own issues with AppImage and Debian over here. I’m starting to think AppImage is trash.

EDIT: I stand corrected, it’s not AppImage that’s trash, it’s Electron. And only because it doesn’t play nicely with new versions of Debian without making some questionable changes.

PlexAmp will start for me, but the sign in button does nothing. This is still one step better than the previous version, which didn’t launch at all. :smiley:

Won’t start for Solus either:

Nada.

Thanks for all the reports! The team is investigating changes to make to the build process for linux.

I’m able to run it under Manjaro Archlinux. If there’s anything I can provide let me know (like versions, output, etc).

im under manjaro and i can’t run it, did you have done anything special ?

edit: launch with this paremeter: --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox and it s work for me

No luck for me either with Manjaro i3, giving me the same output as others.

I did not but I’m glad that flag works for you.

I’m using the latest version of glibc, I’ve read it’s required for WebRTC in Electron. Maybe that’s a fix?

Worked for me in Arch, thanks

This seems to work for me as well!

Nice one, this worked for me also, thank you.

It works on Arch Linux with KDE but not on Manjaro with i3-wm.

I have it working on my Manjaro i3.

I followed the guide here: Run Plexamp v3.0.0 on Debian 10 which works great and does away with annoying Library folder being created in our home directories.

Once that was done, I added the following to my i3 config:

bindsym $mod+F5 exec /home/USERNAME/.local/Plexamp/Plexamp-3.0.0.AppImage --no-sandbox

After that it launches fine.

In my case, the dmesg shows

[ 382.680120] SGI_video_sync[9497]: segfault at e6 ip 00005617e900f24d sp 00007fe845be4740 error 6 in plexamp[5617e5b7
1000+53aa000]

A lot of programs got messed up by GCC according to this forum (opera, chrome, Vivaldi).

I had to run with

$ sudo Plexamp.AppImage --no-sandbox

Update 1: But it won’t get pass “sign in” screen.

Where do you input that command? Launch with terminal or is there a way to edit launch options?

Same for me, can’t get past sign in. Like the button does nothing.

Ubuntu 20.04 and Alex’s fix worked for me.
