Bitwarden desktop somehow out of sync - suggestions?
 

First - I probably did this to myself somehow

Am running bitwarden-desktop-2024.3.2-x86_64-1_SBo.tgz - thank you marav !!

I'm a fairly new user of this app. Didn't start using it till I needed to upgrade to SW 15.0, and discovered what I was using previously was no longer available.

Everything was fine until somehow gnome-keyring got involved, which I did not even know was in the mix - I've since disabled it (via chmod -x gnome-keyring-daemon). Several reboots have occurred since I did that.

Now - my desktop 'vault' is behind the online version, but every attempt to sync it from my desktop just responds with 'sync failed'

I suppose I can do all that I need to do by logging in to bitwarden.com, but I'd really prefer not to.

ideas on how to get my local vault to be current and usable?
Thanks in advance.

Start the app on the command line, not from the menu bar of your distibution, and look at the debug output there. Commonly even graphical applications provide useful output there, its just that if you start it via a .desktop (or similar) file, that output is usually discarded.

You can also commonly run your app with something like --verbose or --debug to get even more output.

To find out what the command is to start it from the desktop do this (here for firefox)

```
sudo apt install locate
sudo updatedb

locate firefox.desktop
/home/user/sensor-backup/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop

grep Exec /home/user/sensor-backup/usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
Exec=/usr/bin/firefox %u
```

This tells you that in order to start firefox from the command line, you need to run `/usr/bin/firefox`.

You can run something like `/usr/bin/firefox --help` to see the available command line arguments (and look for something like verbose or debug, if it doesn't provide enough output by default).

I guess that is better to stop making suggestions for Slackware, my Ubuntu fellow! It has no apt command. :hattip:

I don't understand even a single word of what was said here
Except for the fact that I was thanked for my SBo :hattip:
