Mongo Compass crashes after upgrading Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04: FATAL gpu_data_manager_impl_private

After upgrading Ubuntu 20.04 Desktop to 22.04 Desktop mongodb-compass crashes after a fews seconds booting with:

mongo compass FATAL gpu_data_manager_impl_private.cc(894)] The display compositor is frequently crashing

It seems like there is an issue with chromium, but I was not able to find a clean fix for this.

    The solution was quite simple:

    • Remove the old installation: sudo apt remove mongodb-compass

    Reinstall MongoDB Compass:

    • Download the deb file from the official Download page
    • Install with cd ~/Download and sudo apt install ./mongodb-compass_*_amd64.deb like suggested here

    I found that running mongodb-compass --no-sandbox worked for me on Kubuntu 22.04.1.

    I saw this flag on another Electron app issue https://github.com/mifi/lossless-cut/issues/1025 It looks like a bug in Electron. I believe electron passes this flag to the chromium browser that it uses, however this won’t run mongodb compass in a secure sandbox environment: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/master/docs/design/sandbox.md

    Needless to say, it works and I added the flag to my shortcut /usr/share/applications/mongodb-compass.desktop which now looks like this:

    [Desktop Entry]
Name=MongoDB Compass
Comment=The MongoDB GUI
GenericName=MongoDB Compass
Exec=mongodb-compass %U --no-sandbox
