Hello
I am unfortunately experiencing crashes on knime 5.5.1 as well as 5.4.5 (+ a few prior versions too). Crashes always occur when opening a dialog box, specifically I can always reproduce the crash when going to settings->databases-> “add” button.
Curiously, when I run the 5.5.1 version on wayland (without the x11 backend variable) the crashes do not occur , but I do get blank dialog boxes which make the app unusable sadly.
Error logs suggest issues with libgdk-3 :
"# Problematic frame:
C [libgdk-3.so.0+0x525d5] gdk_window_get_screen+0x25"
knime 5.5.1 hs_err_pid6609.log (248.8 KB)
knime 5.4.5 hs_err_pid5535.log (340.5 KB)
I was also able to reproduce the same error on a different machine so it’s not a hardware issue (as was suggested in one of the forum topics I found on knime crashing)
Other things I’ve tried :
-swtiching from wayland to an x11 session (still crahsed)
-running on a xorg-native distribution (ubuntu cinamon 25.04) - did not crash but there are weird scaling issues on the classic UI
Is there any workaround/pending fix that would allow me to continue using KNIME on KDE?
Thank you!
Adam
