Extension fails to connect to the app on Vivaldi in Linux Mint

schlameel

Browser: Vivaldi 5.1.2567.39 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit)

The extension does not work with the desktop app. I have to unlock them separately.

When I use the extension in Vivaldi Browser, the extension logs to the console:
Received <BrowserVerificationFailed> from the native core

In ~/.config/1Password/logs/BrowserSupport/1Password_rCURRENT.log I get:

The file /opt/vivaldi/vivaldi-bin is there:

Any suggestions? Thank you.

Hi, @schlameel. Sorry for the long delay.

This is very odd and I'm looking into it.

Savanni

Oh, before I go too deeply, do you have a file /etc/1password/custom_allowed_browsers on your system? Could you make sure that vivaldi-bin is one of the lines in that file?

schlameel

BOOM! I created /etc/1password/custom_allow_browsers and added the single line "vivaldi-bin" and it worked.

I am really grateful for you taking the time to help. I realize it's your job, but I have loved the product and shared it with everyone I can, but this just makes me love it more. Thank you again.

Savanni

Thanks for the vote of support, @schlameel . I'm going to make sure we have an issue for tracking this, though, because the error message is a bit misleading.

schlameel

I did, what I felt was, a pretty thorough search to solve the problem (I'd guess 15-30 minutes). Searching now for "custom_allowed_browsers" I can find the solution on other threads. I even found /etc/share/doc/1password/examples/custom_allowed_browsers", but that's the only thing in that 1password folder. No man pages, no reason to think to look there in the first place.

While I realize I am very much a corner case (Linux with Vivaldi, though not so corner that it isn't documented in that example file ;-) ), if 1Password has some method by which these kinds of issues could be surfaced more directly than in the text of a community support forum (which again, I read through tens of posts) that might be useful.

But mostly... @Savanni ROCKS!!! Thanks a million.

blau

awesome... thanks! I had the same problem. Initially I thought it was because I am using wayland but it turns out as simple as the solution suggested here
