openclaw - 💡(How to fix) Fix [Linux] Browser profile locked after Z2 Mini Chrome crash [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

Implementing auto-detection and clearing of stale locks on Chrome startup is likely to resolve the "profile in use" errors after migrating from Z2 Mini to Z8G4.

Guidance

• Investigate the feasibility of adding a mechanism to automatically detect and clear stale SingletonLocks when Chrome starts, as proposed in the issue.
• Review the event loop blocking issue related to browser startup failures in #75330 to understand potential connections between the two problems.
• Consider implementing a recovery mechanism that allows Chrome to handle stale locks gracefully, such as prompting the user to restart or providing an option to override the lock.
• Verify that the proposed fix does not introduce any security vulnerabilities related to profile access and locking.

Example

No specific code example can be provided without more context on the Chrome and OpenClaw implementation details.

Notes

The effectiveness of the proposed fix may depend on the specific implementation of the auto-detection and clearing mechanism, as well as any underlying issues related to the event loop blocking problem.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Implementing the proposed auto-detection and clearing of stale locks on startup seems to be the most direct approach to resolving the issue, given the information provided.
