Linux debian Chromium Browser And Iron not working
Hi Richards,
   You have to try the following solution below:
-
Look for the Appdata then select Local, then search for the Google select Chrome then select User data. Change the default folder as Back up.
-
Next, you have to cut t and paste it in Chrome to level one. In which will solve the issues  and change it.
-
You can also try this to your bookmarks, then look for the back up folder. Have it copy  " bookmarks" and then put it into the new formed default folder .
-
Close first the Chrome to successfully .
Hope this might help you.
Thanks

Linux debian Chromium Browser And Iron not working
Hello Richards,
This issue originates from a database upgrade failure. It appears, early dev releases of the "web_intents" table in the "Web Data" database weren't upgraded properly when we added a new column.
Which in turn results in leaving the database in a partially invalid state.Â
Here is a workaround to recover your profile?
Â
You have to delete both the "Web Data" and "Web Data-journal" files from your profile directory.
Â
WARNING: Here you are going to lose everything existing in your web_intents table, autofill table and other non-critical tables. So make sure that you keep backups of your profile before attempting this.Â
Â
This is an example showing how to set the path on Linux
Â
cd path/to/Profile  // e.g. ~/.config/google-chrome/Default
rm "Web Data" "Web Data-journal"
Hope this will help you!
