@hades: I just tried running it using the command that you shared - didn't cut it for me - I see the same errors as withoud xcb mode

Edit:

I didn't pay enough attention - the EGL error is missing, but the other stuff is there and still no GUI:

FWIW, on my box insync shows a blank window when run with Qt in Wayland mode. I don't get the EGL error, but I get the following messages:

qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate()
qt.qpa.wayland: Wayland does not support QWindow::requestActivate()

Either way, I couldn't be bothered debugging this, so I just run insync in X11 mode:

$ QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb /usr/bin/insync start --no-daemon

Yeah, but it's still weird that on one laptop the GUI is working properly, while on the other - not. Looks like a dependency that is not satisfied on one of the computers. I tried googling for this error, but didn't accomplish much: qt.qpa.wayland: EGL not available

I don't think the issues has anything to do with Windowing systems. The error is clearly in the way insync accesses mime types on the system, which is broken. I'm on X11 if that helps anything

@pedrohqb this is the output:

$ insync start --no-daemon

If you run insync start --no-daemon on wayland, what do you get?

Hey guys!

I just noticed that my Insync GUI is not showing. I have insync 3.9.0.60000-1 installed, but I can't tell if it's installed from the aur- or the chaotic-aur repo, as they both show the 'Installed' text:

yay insync | grep insync\ 3.9.0
2 aur/insync 3.9.0.60000-1 (+317 0.98) (Installed)
1 chaotic-aur/insync 3.9.0.60000-1 (149.9 MiB 399.0 MiB) (Installed)

I don't use system services to start it - I normally use the KDE Plasma autostart feature, but regardless of whether it was autostarted, or I stop the process and start it from the console, no GUI is loaded, while the process is shown as active in my processes list. The thing is, although it's listed as an active process, not synchronization of my files takes place.

I have the 6.9.3-arch1-1 kernel and I'm using Wayland.

What's weird is that I also have the same Insync version installed on another laptop with the same kernel vesion running Wayland too - and there Insync's GUI is properly loaded. The graphics adapters are different though: - The laptop where Insync's GUI doesn't load has an embedded Intel graphics adapter: Intel Corporation Alder Lake-UP3 GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] (rev 0c) Kernel driver in use: i915 - The laptop where Insync's GUI loads as expected has Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Rembrandt [Radeon 680M] (rev d1) Kernel driver in use: amdgpu

I tried downgrading to Insync 3.8.7 to see if the GUI shows up normally, but couldn't install that version - after checking out the relevant commit and building the package with makepkg, I'm getting an error trying to install the package archive with pacman -U because of a missing signature file, which is strange considering that I've set LocalFileSigLevel = Never in my pacman.conf

I'd be grateful for any suggestions on how to further troubleshoot this, as I really need my Google Drive folder synced for my daily tasks.

Thanks!

I examined the 3.9.0 package and the systemd service files do appear to be included. Those are part of the AUR files so they shouldn't be impacted by a version update to insync unless insync changes its binary path (which it does not appear to have).

They're also installed correctly on my system.

The error we are currently seeing which consists of this traceback:

is caused by https://github.com/takluyver/pyxdg/blob/1d23e483ae869ee9532aca43b133cc43f63626a3/xdg/Mime.py#L72, which is the library insync uses.

The only reason I can see this line being triggered is that insync disables assertions in their bundled python interpreter. Otherwise, this should have been caught by line 70 in that same file.
