Homework

Nativefier command

nativefier "https://messages.google.com/web" "$target" --icon "$HOME/Pictures/Icons/android-messages-logo.png" --name "Android Messages" --platform "linux" --tray --portable --honest --single-instance --disable-dev-tools

Steps to reproduce

For years, I have been generating a google messages app, using the following command...

nativefier \
	"https://messages.google.com/web" \
	"$target" \
	--icon "$HOME/Pictures/Icons/android-messages-logo.png" \
	--name "Android Messages" \
	--platform "linux" \
	--tray \
	--portable \
	--honest \
	--single-instance \
	--disable-dev-tools

Which now results, in a white-page, and errors:

[340658:0831/162758.368168:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 1 times!
[340658:0831/162758.374503:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 2 times!
[340658:0831/162802.299317:ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed for 3 times!

If I run it with just "https://messages.google.com", it works, but clicking the "Messages for web" link,
it results in a whitepage again, and the errors above.

Expected behavior

The website is presented.

Actual behavior

Whitepage, with the error: ERROR:gl_surface_presentation_helper.cc(260)] GetVSyncParametersIfAvailable() failed

Debug info

Running in verbose mode! This will produce a mountain of logs and is recommended only for troubleshooting or if you like Shakespeare.

Hi! Nativefier is minimally maintained these days, and needs more hands.
If you have the time & motivation, help with bugfixes and maintenance is VERY welcome.
Please go to https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier and help how you can. Thanks.

I too have this issue. I bought a new PC this week and the same issue happens to me in Windows 11 x64 (including using the base URL, which works fine until I click the /web link.) I dual boot ArchLinux, and an older compile works fine, and this used to work on my previous computer in Windows 11.

Found 2 workarounds...

  1. Downgrading to ver. 51 seems to work.

  2. With ver. 52, adding "--disableGpu" to options, also looks to work.
    Edit: ^^^ disable-gpu fails afterall, works for the QR code page, but gives whitepage and "ERROR:interface_endpoint_client.cc(697)] Message 0 rejected by interface blink.mojom.WidgetHost" errors after.

For me that becomes:

nativefier \
	"https://messages.google.com/web" \
	"$target" \
	--icon "$HOME/Pictures/Icons/android-messages-logo.png" \
	--name "Android Messages" \
	--platform "linux" \
	--tray \
	--portable \
	--honest \
	--single-instance \
	--disable-dev-tools \
	--disableGpu

Thank you, jenschurchill! Downgrading to 51.0.0 fixes the issue for me as well.
