Electron 15.3.4 is being used, also tried 16.0.5 and got the same issue.
It's erroring out on this line:
import remote from '@electron/remote';
...
let { app } = remote; // errors out on this line
This is being called in the renderer process.
This appears to be some kind of race condition that only a very few number of users seem to have. We have seen several of these different stack traces for various areas in the remote module. We have also seen sendSync
return null for some users (did a band aid for this one) in our own code....which seems to be the same issue that is happening here in the electron/remote code directly itself too in the metaToValue
function call.
Looking for some advice/help here as to how to get this fixed. Like mentioned above, the main culprit is sendSync
returning null.
More details about the sendSync
error can be found here electron/electron#31733.
I have encountered the same problem, it seems that it only appears when devtools is opening.
Same thing happening here, while calling Menu.buildFromTemplate
, there's the sendSync
call that sometimes returns null
. I'm upgrading now to Electron 20 and see if it improves.
