Google Chrome errors

**jeff131** · July 3rd, 2015

I installed google chrome with the command

Code:

sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable

, and everything was fine. But then, when I ran google chrome from the terminal, with

Code:

google-chrome-stable

, it the terminal, a whole bunch of errors occurred. What do they mean? Here they are:

Code:

I tried running Chrome multiple times, and all of these errors popped up. They don't seem to be affecting my browsing in there though. I am not sure if this is relevant or not, but my default browser is still Mozilla Firefox.

You can also download a .deb file from the google chrome website, which takes you to ubuntu software center, so both ways are the same.

-Thank you

I didn't know Google Chrome could be installed by

Code:

sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable

Is Google Chrome now being offered by the software center?

**jeff131** · July 3rd, 2015

Well, there is a .deb file offered by the google chrome website, which takes you to ubuntu software center, where it was labled as google-chrome-stable. Either way, by graphical, or by terminal, The errors are the same

I installed Chrome by downloading the deb file from Google/Chrome site, and then using "gdebi" (a stand-alone deb file install tool) to install it. (just right clik the deb file). Note, you may need to go into Synaptic or the USC to install gdebi.

**monkeybrain20122** · July 3rd, 2015

Not sure what you have done. You CANNOT install Chrome with sudo apt-get because Chrome is a third party software and it is not in the repository. As Geoffery_Arndt said download the deb and right click it to install (by default the software centre will come up but gdebi would be much faster. You need to install it first "sudo apt-get install gdebi", then right click a .deb and from properties choose gdebi as the default application to open .deb)

Anyway, this is what I see when launching google-chrome-stable from the terminal:

Code:

10:10 PM ~ $ google-chrome-stable
[8943:8943:0703/221102:ERROR:url_pattern_set.cc(240)] Invalid url pattern: chrome://print/*
[9:9:0703/221103:ERROR:resource_request_policy.cc(57)] Denying load of chrome-extension://apdfllckaahabafndbhieahigkjlhalf/page_embed_script.js from hosted app.

[8943:9071:0703/221114:ERROR:get_updates_processor.cc(243)] PostClientToServerMessage() failed during GetUpdates
10:11 PM ~ $

Unless something doesn't work, I'd ignore those errors. And I rarely launch GUI programs from the terminal.

Actually you can if the Google PPA has already been added to your sources list.

I agree with vasa1, if Chrome works starting normally why bother with errors encountered by starting it from a terminal?

But I think the Google ppa is added when you install the .deb the first time.

Yes and no. See http://tecadmin.net/install-google-chrome-in-ubuntu/ and numerous other sites.

You can add the PPA first then install Chrome.

Agree with this. ^^^

I've always used 'gdebi' for installing one-off .deb files that I trust to install correctly and not mess up my system. It's more efficient, faster, and also handles the necessary dependencies much more effectively.

I always use it install my Epson printer/scanner drivers & software. The Software Centre, on the couple of occasions I've used it for this purpose, seems to hang halfway through installation. It does eventually get there, but it seems to take forever.

There ARE more efficient ways of installing stuff. Once you've used Ubuntu for a little while, you come to realise this..!

Mike.
