KPS-MWT · 2023-10-12T09:44:13Z

Steps To Reproduce

Install Bitwarden 2023.9.1 or earlier through DEB package
generate vault with vault key
Update to 2023.9.2 through DEB package
Start Bitwarden
Try to enter vault

Expected Result

Vault key entered and vault unlocked

Actual Result

Bitwarden client blanks out completely. Can be restored by "view" -> "reload", but vault unlock try causes same result

Additional Context

Uninstalling 2023.9.2 and reinstalling 2023.9.1 makes everything working ok again.

Output from Shell when Bitwarden is run from there:

Issue Tracking Info

I understand that work is tracked outside of Github. A PR will be linked to this issue should one be opened to address it, but Bitwarden doesn't use fields like "assigned", "milestone", or "project" to track progress.

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

jusevitch · 2023-10-12T16:17:58Z

I can confirm this on Ubuntu 20.04 for version 2023.9.2. When I start typing my master password in the field, the window blanks out. Menus are accessible, but the app itself is unusable.

jdhaines · 2023-10-12T16:58:39Z

I'm seeing this behavior, but user interaction doesn't seem to affect it. I can open the application and just wait 3-5 seconds to see the "crash". Menus are still clickable, but the central UI is just blank. If I keep my mouse cursor on the screen it seems to wait not exhibit the "crash" but one mouse-out and mouse-back kicks it off. The current AppImage seems to be 2023.8.2 and doesn't exhibit this behavior.

My error is similar to above:

Thanks for the bug report! I am able to reliably reproduce on Ubuntu 22.04.2 with both deb and AppImage. It looks like this might have been caused by our recent Electron update. The team is looking into a resolution now.

Potentially related: electron/electron#32760

Same Issue on newest Fedora Beta

Same issue on AppImage and flatpack installs on ubuntu 23.04, even just login screen when first setting up, enter email field shows for 3/5 seconds then blanks out, using the menu, view->reload shows it again for 3 to 5 seconds and blanks again

Indeed seems like an issue with 2023.9.2. As mentioned above, most likely related change is the Electron bump: #6511.

also tried with the version 2022.8.4

atraxsrc · 2023-10-14T11:05:26Z

Same issue on Pop_os, using browser extention for now.

Edit: Password manager in the browser, is kinda sus, I went paranoid and install previous .deb version [https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/releases/download/desktop-v2023.8.4/Bitwarden-2023.8.4-amd64.deb], uninstalled latest flatpak, and no issues at all.

Jon-Kle · 2023-10-14T15:42:48Z

Same problem here on Fedora Linux 38 (Workstation Edition) with the flatpack version.
I upgraded to Version 2023.9.2 and now it crashes after a short period of time after starting it.

hal1961 · 2023-10-15T17:17:40Z

Meantime whenever Bitwarden-2023.9.1-x86_64.AppImage starts it automatically upgrades itself to the buggy Bitwarden-2023.9.2-x86_64.AppImage. I didn't find any setting to disable this behaviour. Also tried to set the file read only for everyone and changed the owner to root: even launched as normal user the file is replaced as well. Any hint to prevent the automatic update, at least until a fix is released?

pjgg · 2023-10-15T17:19:16Z

I can reproduce with Fedora 38

rogue5oul · 2023-10-15T19:31:23Z

I have the same behavior with flatpak version:

Grizz69 · 2023-10-15T19:32:33Z

I have had problems using Blend OS and Fedora38 both installed via Flatpak. AppImage does the same thing. Recent since yesterday. I have uninstalled and reinstalled including different OS. Only thing that seems to work is the browser extension, and I hate browser extensions. Currently using Fedora Silverblue 38.

Same issue on a fresh install of Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon 5.8.4, for both the .appimage and the .deb; like above, I also saw the same error message in the command line, although they did happen before the page disappeared:

See same on Arch linux with latest version with:

appimage

Reverted version to 2023.9.1 and chattr +i'd the appimage so it can't update...

buvinghausen · 2023-10-17T13:39:54Z

Pretty sure this is borked on every Linux distro via all distribution channels

abysso2 · 2023-10-17T13:58:53Z

Solved with new release 2023.9.3:

buvinghausen · 2023-10-17T14:09:05Z

Having the same issue on fedora 38 using flatpak. You can however downgrade to the previous version through flatpak using the steps used at https://itsfoss.com/downgrade-flatpak-packages/

I had to downgrade both com.bitwarden.desktop and com.bitwarden.desktop.Locale

Since flatpak is usually a delay from OG release this will downgrade to 2023.9.1 which will work in the meantime.

sudo flatpak update --commit=c78a73925d4c7bc6c4bf3c0139b4cc3ec44af20fdbfcc005320453b45a524366 com.bitwarden.desktop

sudo flatpak update --commit=5ccea7bae339082be13d8fc35584e98301cfe00b441207cff18d32ebfb13618d com.bitwarden.desktop.Locale

Update: 2023.9.3 made it to Flatpak so this workaround is no longer needed

sixerstyle · 2023-10-20T15:42:55Z

It works again in Fedora 38 with 2023.9.3 version from flathub.

But I still get this annoying message "We're sorry, it looks like Bitwarden crashed" message in Gnome every time Bitwarden is locked. If you start it from command line, it's full of error messages.

E.g. things like this:
› Error: No password found
(node:2) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'setContextMenu')
at TrayMain.updateContextMenu (/app/Bitwarden/resources/app.asar/main.js:46304:23)

in Gnome its works with version 2023.9.3. In KDE not, same error there, blank after 2sek

@ricjuhnl @sgilissen @llabusch93

I am also on Debian 12 and have the latest Flatpak version installed (2023.10.0), deactivating graphics acceleration solved it for me.

flatpak override --nodevice=dri --user com.bitwarden.desktop

No solution for the problem, but at least a workaround.

flonix8 · 2023-11-04T11:40:58Z

I have a similar issue. Had the blanking issue, 2023.9.3 fixed it for me (on KDE 5.27), but now 2023.10.0 introduced a new issue, where the window goes blank except some very few elements. I can still see the cursor (and everything technically works, i.e. I can unlock the vault) but nothing else. Even devtools are mostly blank. So it's back to being unusable again.

@offline4ever Thank you so much for the workaround. It seems to work.

I'm getting more and more frustrated with the Bitwarden situation on Linux though...

Yeah if you hit .333 in baseball you are a first ballot hall of famer. When only 1/3rd of your releases work in software you need to find a new profession.

EDIT: 2023.10.1 does not resolve the blank issue.

Looks like a fresh desktop client release is out. Let's see if it addresses the blank issue.

https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/releases/tag/desktop-v2023.10.1

gbcox · 2023-11-10T13:42:32Z

2023.10.0 was working fine for me with Fedora 39, but when I upgraded to 2023.10.1 I got the white screen.

Edit: I not sure what is going on but I had to go back to 2023.9.2 to get this working again. It appears to have something to do with login.

rqkeating · 2023-11-12T04:26:52Z

Kubuntu 23.10, flatpak 1.14.4-2, Bitwarden 2023.10.1

I was able to get Bitwarden working by turning off the "GPU acceleration" for that flatpak. I used Flatseal to make that change but I think there are other ways of setting flatpak permissions too.

Seems to only occur on some GPUs, e.g. some Intel GPUs. See also bitwarden/clients#6560. Cannot go back to electron 25 easily due to NixOS#272912. Since upstream has a commit to do this, backport it (it does not apply cleanly, though, so vendor).

Still seeing the same behaviour on Fedora39 with Bitwarden 2023.12.0 via flatpak (i.e. crashes before I can enter the password)
Tried removing the "GPU acceleration" but that did not fix.
Interestingly the AppImage I just installed with the same version is working

I found the error in mine. after installation in fedora bitwarden didn't have background permission. try

sudo flatpak permission-set background background com.bitwarden.desktop
