TrueNAS manual jail ver. 12.2
Running latest pre-release.
installed latest chromium pkg in the jail.
I am still getting the error but it's only the below listed channels and I can access them
with Hulu login through their websites.
This only started in the last week at most, noticed it when my available channels went from 149 to 137. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Error "TVE: chrome failed to start"

You need to install chromium in your jail.

Where is it installed and what version?

which chromium-browser
chromium-browser --version

#3

from the jail shell
pkg update chromium
chromium 91.0.4472.114_1
however it appears I have a missing shared object "libgbm.so.1" required by chrome
and no idea where to find it
was able to clear the missing object with "pkg install -f mesa-libs"
however my original error still continues

#4

You didn't answer my questions.

#5

chromium-browser --version = command not found
pkg install chromium-browser = no pkg available
chrome --version = chromium 91.0.4472.114
I just did a force reinstall of www/chromium from the jail shell command line.
pkg install -f www/chromium

Is there some other way I should be installing it? Additional path etc. ?

#6

which chrome

#7

chromium --version = chromium: command not found
so I type chrome --version and get this
chrome --version = chromium 91.0.4472.114
so I guess it means chrome = chromium

#8

I need to know what this command says: which chrome

#9

my bad I kept reading that as a question. Sorry for the frustration I must have been causing.

which chrome = /usr/local/bin/chrome

#10

Great, thank you.

Try running this command it should fix it:

ln -s /usr/local/bin/chrome /usr/local/bin/chromium-browser

#11

well that helped but now I get cable provider authentication failed.

Did you click the LOG IN button after solving the captcha's?

#13

No I actually only tried a manual rescan. Probably need to do a complete rescan from scratch.
But it looks like that will have to wait as my mother is remotly streaming right now :wink:

#14

Thank you for all the help!! Everything is back to normal and again I'm sorry for all the confusion and/or frustration I caused in assisting me.The Channels team and community ROCK!
