Puppeteer Chromium launch failure on Raspberry Pi

See original GitHub issue

got a big fat juicy error while trying to get this to run on a Raspberry pi. May of been too ambitious, but would like advice if you got it.

after the following, nvidia-snatcher is running on my Raspberry Pi 3B on Raspbian OS 32bit (desktop edition). I hope this helps other fellows:

Prerequisities: $ curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_14.x | sudo -E bash - $ sudo apt update $ sudo apt upgrade $ sudo apt install git nodejs

Install as per instructions on github.

Configure following before typing npm run start to start: $ which chromium $ which chromium-browser /usr/bin/chromium-browser <-- USE THE ONE FOUND IN NEXT COMMAND $ export PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH='/usr/bin/chromium-browser' $ export PUPPETEER_SKIP_CHROMIUM_DOWNLOAD=1 $ npm run start

@Rusna run a ‘which chromium’ to see where it’s located on your system, (and if there is even a result. try both chromium and chromium-browser). Whatever gives you a result, then run EXPORT… (that thing)

Eg: I had to run PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH=‘/usr/bin/chromium-browser’ on one system and PUPPETEER_EXECUTABLE_PATH=‘chromium’ on another.
