Webviews don't work on Ubuntu 24.04, showing Loading your sidebar... instead

[dmitry-markin]

Webview-based UI elements don't work on Ubuntu 24.04. Loading your sidebar... and similar messages are shown instead.

The issue affects versions 6.2.x (6.2.3.2056 from stable and 6.2.5.2440 from edge), version 6.0.12.5501 (old stable) works fine.

The relevant messages in the log:

loadZoomWebviewHostProcess newPath is /snap/zoom-client/242/zoom/ZoomWebviewHost
loadZoomWebviewHostProcess libpath is /snap/zoom-client/242/zoom/Qt/lib:/snap/zoom-client/242/zoom/cef:/snap/zoom-client/242/zoom

hmmm this might be related to app armor, could you maybe try

sudo sysctl -w kernel.apparmor_restrict_unprivileged_userns=0

Unfortunately, this didn't help. The error is still No such file or directory for libX11.so.6, which is indeed present in the mounted snap.

Whiteboards don't work either when running Zoom from the snap
