Linux Nightly Client No Longer Connects With Browser

The current Linux nightly client as of a week or so ago no longer connects with the browser extensions, I have tested on a handful of browsers (Firefox stable/beta/nightly and and chrome stable/dev, all system installed, not flatpak) with both the stable and dev extension and they are longer talking at all, browser extensions act as if no client is installed and want to login with the web.

Another machine running the same os (Pop OS) with the stable client continues to work as expected.

This started around a week or so ago, just wanted to make sure it was a known issue.

Hi @BaronKrause, thanks for reaching out to report this.

So that our team can investigate this further, could you create and share a 1Password diagnostics report from the desktop app on the affected device:

I will follow this discussion. I had to rollback to the stable version since my Firefox extension couldn't connect to the Linux application when I'm using the beta version. It wasn't the nightly.

Hi @mhalano, I'm sorry to hear you're running into a similar issue with the beta version.

If you'd prefer to stay on the stable version for now, that's completely fine. But if you'd like us to look into this further, we'd be very happy to. In that case, would you be willing to reinstall the beta, reproduce the issue, and send us a diagnostics report?

Confirming I have also seen this same problem on Fedora when updating the Linux clients.

Hi @ragectl, thanks for letting us know that you've encountered the same problem after updates.

Could you confirm which version of the Linux app you're seeing this with - stable, beta, or nightly?

I tried posting a new thread but it has been blocked by moderation and still has not been posted on this forum

Linux beta breaks git signing - removes execute bit on op-ssh-sign | 1Password Community

I may have tagged it incorrectly, there is no reason shown for why the post has been blocked sitting for review.

I think I found the problem. The binary file `/opt/1Password/1Password-BrowserSupport` doesn't have execution permission (it has suid set, though). You should just run the command `sudo chmod +x /opt/1Password/1Password-BrowserSupport` and it should be working again.

Just tested that, and it seems like it will require more than that.

You’re right that the stable version has executable permission and the beta/nightly don’t, but adding that permission didn't seem to fix it.

What is the error that you see when running 1Password in a terminal? Maybe nightly has something else. I use the beta version and it working fine.
