Can't start Davinci Resolve anymore

mamPHP · 26 February 2024 08:24

Hi,
After the last update, the Davinci doesn’t start anymore!

…and as such should be rebuilt after every update:

pamac build davinci-resolve

I suspect that might be the problem here, so try it and see what happens.

Hope it helps!

Edit:

a Reminder: While use of the AUR is possible, it’s neither recommended nor supported.

Hi,
Thanks, I’ve installed the DR via the official package and I’m not using the AUR and don’t want to!

Based on this davinci resolve isn’t installed VIA the repositories or the AUR. Are you sure you didn’t perhaps install it VIA Snap or Flatpak?

Edit:

Check with:

snap list

and.or:

flatpak list

…respectively.

Edit:

Or what @scotty65 said:

In which case: you shouldn’t have done that. You should not have done that.

So uninstall it if you did it like this, no - we don’t know how because we don’t know how it was installed in the first place - and install the one from the AUR:

pamac build davinci-resolve

scotty65 · 26 February 2024 10:37

Do you mean that you downloaded the package from the DaVinci Resolve website and installed it manually, or did you install it via a package manager such as Pamac or yay or Octopi?

mamPHP · 26 February 2024 18:44

Direct from the website.run no aur, no snap …etc.

Did you uninstall the version you installed using the .run file before installing via pamac build? If not, try the following commands as recommended on their Github site at flolu/davinci-resolve-linux: Setup Davinci Resolve on Linux an Fix Issues with Importing and Exporting Media:

sudo rm -f -r /opt/resolve
sudo rm -f -r ~/Documents/BlackmagicDesign

You could also remove it by running the same script you used to originally install it ( DaVinci_Resolve_XX.Y.Z_Linux.run) & choosing “Uninstall DaVinci Resolve” in the second step:

After the original Resolve download is uninstalled, try building it via pamac again.

mamPHP · 26 February 2024 22:15

Yes i did and removed all of them in cache …etc also! But still the same

scotty65 · 26 February 2024 22:35

I dunno . I’ve never used DaVinci Resolve & have never seen those error messages before. The only thing I can suggest is for you to have a read through the following AUR thread (make sure you read all the way to the end of the thread before you make any changes on your system). It could be GPU-related, it could be kernel-related (maybe try an earlier LTS kernel?), but hopefully you will find a fix in the AUR thread if no-one else here can come up with a solution.

[SOLVED]Davinci resolve 18 doesent work / AUR Issues, Discussion & PKGBUILD Requests / Arch Linux Forums

Edit: Also, (importantly), have a read through the Latest Comments (just below the pinned comment) on the AUR package page - probably worth doing every time you update your system & have to rebuild Resolve, as the pkgbuild maintainer may have to make changes & other Resolve users will likely notify them of any problems:

AUR (en) - davinci-resolve

mamPHP · 27 February 2024 06:59

I’ve done more than 123 works and render them with this machine and same configs. But after last manjaro update (3-5 days ago) got this issue which is unfix-able as i see in the forums.

Mirdarthos · 27 February 2024 07:39

I think the .run has old and/or incompatible stuff. There’s no way to be sure, since when I went to download it this morning to see what I could see, I was met with an

504 Gateway Time-out

So I honestly have no idea further.

mamPHP · 27 February 2024 08:10

I’ve tried with Yay Aur and with pamac AUT activation both of them are the same result!

zbe · 27 February 2024 09:07

Switch to 6.1 kernel.

linux-aarhus · 27 February 2024 15:00

Anything installed outside the package manager is unsupported and is unlikely to work for a longer period - if at all.

Even though the package manager supports installing from AUR, Flatpak and Snap - it is unsupported.

The issue has nothing to do with kernel and hardware stuff!
