Extensions not showing anything

Using Ubuntu 22.04 and Slicer 4.11.20210226. Also tried on the preview release.

Loading Extensions Manager shows 100% at bottom but nothing appears. I am just using this on a home computer with no firewalls etc. My internet connection otherwise works fine.

Desperately trying to install the VMTK.

Any help appreciated.

Kind regards,

Jeremy.

Hi,

I am having a similar issue. The Extension list only reports “All (0)”. This happens both via Slicer and by manually visiting the URL @KitwareMedical/slicer-extensions-webapp

EDIT: Slicer version 4.11.0-2020-06-12 r29143 / 95c7682
I am using Ubuntu, my kernel is recent (5.13), the file ‘/proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_userns_clone’ contains 1 and --no-sandbox has no effect, as well as QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1 ./Slicer.

Any hint? :slight_smile:

The Midas backend of the older Slicer versions has been replaced by a new one, and so extensions for those versions are not available.

You’ll need to use a more recent Slicer. 5.0 will be released imminently, and the 5.1 preview version is virtually identical to the coming stable.

I am using Ubuntu 22.04 and was having the same issue.
This is the step that worked for me, using this flag before launching Slicer: QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Where should I put QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1 ?

in the terminal window, before you start Slicer. So this will be shell command like
export QTWEBENGINE_DISABLE_SANDBOX=1
then you can invoke
./Slicer
and extension manager should be available to you.

This issue was recently addressed (BUG: Fix blank Extensions manager for Linux package due to Chromium sandboxing by jcfr · Pull Request #6744 · Slicer/Slicer · GitHub). In the current preview release there is no need to set this variable.
