Have the same issue here on Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS with the following packets installed:
dpkg -l | grep chromium ii chromium-browser 59.0.3071.109-0ubuntu0.14.04.1186 amd64 Chromium web browser, open-source version of Chrome ii chromium-browser-l10n 59.0.3071.109-0ubuntu0.14.04.1186 all chromium-browser language packages ii chromium-codecs-ffmpeg-extra 59.0.3071.109-0ubuntu0.14.04.1186 amd64 Extra ffmpeg codecs for the Chromium Browser ii unity-scope-chromiumbookmarks 0.1+13.10.20130723-0ubuntu1 all Chromium bookmarks scope for Unity @osomon The issue seems to be unrelated to whether you are online or offline. I can get the issue to disappear and reappear with the following actions though: Run "chromium-browser" in terminal ..error appears. Close chromium again. Run "chromium-browser --disable-extensions" in terminal ..no error. Close chromium again. Run chromium-browser ..no error. Close chromium again. Run chromium-browser ..no error. Close chromium again. Run chromium-browser ..no error. Close chromium again. (..tried up to 8 times) Run chromium-browser ..no error. Open a webpage like https://heise.de/newsticker. ..Page loads. Close chromium again. Run chromium-browser ..The error appears. I have run the above cycle several times and this works reliably. Have disabled my extensions; at first some, finally all of them, but that has no impact on reproducibility. Only deviation: sometimes you have to open more than one website and close the browser to find the error reappearing upon next start. Let me know when I can contribute more information. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1702407 Title: Startup crash after upgrading to 59.0.3071.109 on xenial To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1702407/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
