Most likely you need to configure your SUID sandbox correctly
ninja -C out/Debug chrome chrome_sandbox
build/update-linux-sandbox.sh
again~/.bashrc
have below line
export CHROME_DEVEL_SANDBOX=/usr/local/sbin/chrome-devel-sandbox
--no-sandbox
option did not work?any input would be highly appreciated.
Young.
This error message...
The setuid sandbox provides API version 1, but you need 0
...implies that your setuid binary is out of date hence the program was unable to initiate/spawn a new Browsing Context i.e. Chrome Browser session.
As per the documentation in Linux SUID Sandbox Development google-chrome needs a SUID
helper binary to turn on the sandbox on Linux. In majority of the cases you can install the proper sandbox for you using the command:
build/update-linux-sandbox.sh
This program will install the proper sandbox for you in /usr/local/sbin
and tell you to update your .bashrc
if required.
However, there can be some exceptions as an example, if your setuid
binary is out of date, you will get messages such as:
The setuid sandbox provides API version X, but you need Y
You are using a wrong version of the setuid binary!
In these cases, you need to follow the steps below:
chrome_sandbox
whenever you build chrome (ninja -C xxx chrome chrome_sandbox
instead of ninja -C xxx chrome
)After building, execute update-linux-sandbox.sh
.
# needed if you build on NFS!
sudo cp out/Debug/chrome_sandbox /usr/local/sbin/chrome-devel-sandbox
sudo chown root:root /usr/local/sbin/chrome-devel-sandbox
sudo chmod 4755 /usr/local/sbin/chrome-devel-sandbox
Finally, you have to include the following line in your ~/.bashrc
(or .zshenv
):
export CHROME_DEVEL_SANDBOX=/usr/local/sbin/chrome-devel-sandbox
