Error when saving password on Linux
Saving a password on Linux doesn't seem to work and leads to this error popup:
I'm investigating this, this issue can be assigned to me, I created it to track the progress
This might be related to me not running a desktop environment and the automatic detection from electron for some reason not finding the gnome keyring daemon running
https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/safe-storage This seems to occur when running an unrecognized desktop environment, to fix it, you need to run it with one of these command line flags, or build it with a line like
app.commandLine.appendSwitch("password-store", "gnome")
included after the other similar statements in main.js
I'm not sure if this issue is even fixable then without adding custom logic to properly detect available password stores, the way electron does it isn't very good
I’m using sway, Gnome keyring is up and running. I run into the same error trying to save a user password, --password-store="gnome-libsecret" fixes that one while --password-store="basic" still errors out, FYI.
The reason I’m posting though is that I simply cannot store the admin password in any way. No error message, but it neither uses nor stores the password. That is with either of the command line options.
