Does anyone know where chromium stores your profile? After a bad crash I lost all my tabs, and every time I start it now it says that it can't read my profile. It tells me to check that it exists and that I have rw access to it - but so far I haven't found it.

Possibly under ~/.config/chromium

Sounds reasonable :-) - I haven't got used to looking under ~/.config. However, I've no idea what I'm looking for. There are quite a lot of files there, and the permissions on all of them look reasonable, but if one is missing I wouldn't know.
Then again, some have rw only on owner, with no access at all for group or world - I wonder if mysql needs r access at least? Most files there seem to be -rw-r--r--
If anyone would be prepared to send me (off-list if you like) their directory listing it would be most helpful. Thanks

Why would mysql need access to chromium files?

My mistake - not mysql, but SQLite3, which the History Index files seem to be using. I've just noticed that there is one file called History-journal, which is said to be type unknown. Is that correct?

Same here. Actually I use Chrome, but the file is also present:
$ file .config/google-chrome/Default/History-journal .config/google-chrome/Default/History-journal: data

Hi,
History-journal is here a temporary file. It only exists when chromium (google- chrome) is running. May be remove this file solves your issue?

Interesting - it was still there with Chromium closed, so I tried renaming it - still the same error message - so I put it back.

Look for any stale chromium-browser processes and kill them.
See http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Chrome/thread?tid=08e9aa36ad5159cb&... and http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=36114

No, I did check for stale processes, and couldn't see any
Hmm, following the comment #18 I tried
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/xdg-settings check default-web-browser google- chrome.desktop
and got
xdg-settings: unknown desktop environment
I don't know whether this is what I should expect?
It's not the end of the world, but it would be nice to get rid of the nag, if nothing else.
