puppeteer problem on ubuntu

See original GitHub issue

Hello,

I’m using ubuntu 16.04 32bits with chromium and the latest version of nodejs.

When I try to do “website-evidence-collector https//mywebsite.com/” I get the two following errors : `(node:24893) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Failed to launch chrome! /home/myself/Desktop/myfolder/testwec/pyenv/wecapp/node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium/linux-686378/chrome-linux/chrome: 1: /home/myself/Desktop/myfolder/testwec/pyenv/wecapp/node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium/linux-686378/chrome-linux/chrome: Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string

(node:24893) UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Unhandled promise rejection. This error originated either by throwing inside of an async function without a catch block, or by rejecting a promise which was not handled with .catch(). (rejection id: 1) (node:24893) [DEP0018] DeprecationWarning: Unhandled promise rejections are deprecated. In the future, promise rejections that are not handled will terminate the Node.js process with a non-zero exit code.`

I took a look at puppeteer doc about troubleshooting on Ubuntu, so I did the command ldd chrome | grep not to see the eventual dependencies that might be missing. But none is detected.

What can I do to fix this problem ?

Thank in advance for your help.

Best regards Xavier

I have the same problem as bitnesswise but didn’t manage to install with his guidelines. I don’t have a folder ~/node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium. I have installed chromium through the Ubuntu package manager (18.04)
