Insync does not start after latest update (3.9.1.60010) on KDE Neon 6 [SOLVED via new version 3.9.2.60014]

Yes, you can, install the version for Fedora 38. I already posted the same output as yours 2 days ago and I offered the solution immediately after. If you took the time to read …

Thanks, after I downloaded that particular version, it’s working again.

Hi @Bogdan_Hlevca,

I have forwarded your feedback to our engineers for further investigation. Thank you for the details you provided!

@Marcin_Bojko Hello, could you please send me the output of
lsb_release -a
apt-cache policy insync

Thank you!

@freelsjd I have followed this up with our engineers. Thank you for your patience!

Hi @mia , I have the same issue on Ubuntu 23.10.

Same here. I’m on tumbleweed 20240704 and I have the same error.
The strange thing is that libnss3.so is available both under /usr/lib and under /usr/lib64.

To those who can do it: please change the subject to reflect the fact that the problem is NOT solved.

Found a temporary workaround (for Tumbleweed at least).
I noticed that Tumbleweed ships libnss3 version 3.100, but Insync requires version 3.101.
So I looked around and found that Openmandriva Rolling ships version 3.101. Since it is an RPM-based distro I decided to give it a try.
I downloaded the library from https://abf-downloads.openmandriva.org/rolling/repository/x86_64/main/release/lib64nss3-3.101-1-omv2490.x86_64.rpm and extracted the three libnss3* files, and put them under /usr/lib/insync (where the rest of Insync’ libraries are).
Then tried to start Insync and… it worked!!

Got a bunch of warnings though, but I do not think they’re related:

Can you try using the Fedora 40 build instead and let me know if it poses the same issues?

As for AppImage, there have been some limitations when we explored this prior that made it challenging to provide it for our users.

Thank you for sharing the solution, @tales_gomes!

Hello! For Ubuntu, Pop!OS, and Mint users whose versions are based on Jammy and Noble, please try the following test builds:

https://cdn.insynchq.com/builds/linux/3.9.2.60015/insync_3.9.2.60015-noble_amd64.deb
https://cdn.insynchq.com/builds/linux/3.9.2.60015/insync_3.9.2.60015-jammy_amd64.deb

This is meant to address the no attribute lower issues that you have been experiencing.

Let me know how this update goes. Thank you!

I already tried 40 before going to 38. Only 38 works. 40 has dependency issues.

I still advise your developers to go the AppImage way, it may be difficult at the beginning but it will prevent so many breakages in the future. Make them sweat :slight_smile:

Hello @mia, is there any news regarding my problem (Insync does not start after latest update (3.9.1.60010) on KDE Neon 6 [SOLVED via new version 3.9.2.60014])? I have reverted back to 3.8.7.50516 which is working very well under Debian Bullseye. Thank you.

Could it be the issue is still not solved for Ubuntu 22.04 in 3.9.2.60014-jammy?

Running insync start --no-daemon gives the following output and no gui shown and no icon in system tray:
