Firejail: Dropbox, multiple issues

[idnovic]

Dropbox starts 2 times for me instead of 1.
Also tray menu of dropbox choose "Launch dropbox website"
Opens firefox but I get this error

File not found
Firefox can’t find the file at /tmp/XXXXXX

I need help debuging the wrongly dual start. Dropbox 2 times in tray does not make sense.

Are you using the default dropbox profile? If not, please upload the dropbox profile you're using.

[idnovic]

ohh, okay now I understand, I did not edit the dropbox profile but made following changes to try to fix it

$ cat /etc/firejail/dropbox.local
join-or-start dropbox

[chiraag-nataraj]

Okay. Let me experiment and get back to you.
[Edit] One more question: how did you install Dropbox?

[idnovic]

the default profile on my side (I removed the commented lines because I dunno how to disable markdown)

$ cat /etc/firejail/dropbox.profile
include /etc/firejail/dropbox.local

include /etc/firejail/globals.local

noblacklist ${HOME}/.config/autostart
noblacklist ${HOME}/.dropbox
noblacklist ${HOME}/.dropbox-dist

I just restarted to claim more information

2922:idnovic:/usr/bin/firejail /usr/bin/baloo_file
3400:idnovic:/usr/bin/firejail /usr/bin/dropbox start -i
6885:root:firejail --list

but it runs 2 times screenshot

I think I used the "binary downloader" included in the repo.
If you install dropbox from repo it downloads the newest version automatically.
The installed dropbox from repo is 2015.10.28 but it seems it is just an downloader like the steam installer

[chiraag-nataraj]

Hmmm, so I just ran firejail dropbox start and it only ran one instance.

[idnovic]

if i run the command it only opens once too.
I only have it in autostart once. I dunno how it runs 2 times.
Is it only started once after you restart your desktop/pc?

[chiraag-nataraj]

I don't use a desktop environment - I would just put the exact command above in my ~/.xinitrc and it would (most likely) spawn only once. I don't actually use Dropbox and only downloaded it to test :joy:

[idnovic]

good idea, thank you

[idnovic]

it seems to be on my end. Even if I deactivate autostart dropbox is "responsible" enough to readd it itself...
