Insync GUI does not start on Linux

The insync GUI does not start on Linux (Ubuntu 22.04 Linux opti9010 6.8.0-40-generic #40~22.04.3-Ubuntu)
the “insync status” command gives the following output:

insync status
Traceback (most recent call last):

Could you please run these 2 commands and share the output here:

lsb_release -a
apt-cache policy insync

Thank you!

Sure,
here the results:

Thank you! One more thing – could you run insync start --no-daemon and send the output here as well?

Thank you @Olivier_Pierre_Friar. I have forwarded this to our engineer for further investigation, and I’ll update you here as soon as I have more info.

I have the exact same issue on Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS, same insync version.

@insynchq.yih32 Hi! Could you also please share the output of these 3 commands:

lsb_release -a
apt-cache policy insync
insync start --no-daemon

Thank you!

Hi,
any news?
Thanks

Apologies! Please let me check with our engineers and I’ll update you accordingly. Thank you for your patience, @Olivier_Pierre_Friar!

Please follow these steps:

  1. Edit your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/insync.list file and replace xenial with jammy.
  2. Afterwards, re-install insync by running this command:​
    sudo apt update && sudo apt remove insync && sudo apt install insync

Insync should work as expected. Let me know otherwise!

Hi,
it was already jammy on my insync.list …

Hi @Olivier_Pierre_Friar. I see! In that case, please install the jammy build from here since the installed build is still xenial.

Thank you!

I have had the same issue on Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS and I “fixed” it with the solution proposed by @mia about replacing “xenial” for “jammy”, but I really hope they fixed it properly.
Thanks.

Hi @serlopord! This usually happens when users update to a newer distro version. The Insync installer doesn’t follow the change in codename of the distro upon an OS update, which triggers the startup issues.

When Insync fails to start properly, users can first check the installed build vis-a-vis their distro version to ensure everything is aligned. :slight_smile:

Hi @mia,
the issue is now fixed.
It is syncing again! Consuming for now 16 Gb of RAM …
I hope it will decrease soon.
What is your advice for upgrading Ubuntu from 22.04 to 24.04 ?
Thanks

Hi @Olivier_Pierre_Friar!

If it does not decrease within the next couple of days, let me know.

As for updating your OS from jammy (22.04) to noble (24.04):

After you’ve updated, I would suggest checking the steps here to make sure that Insync is using noble rather than jammy. Thank you!
