{solved}[chromium] pepper-flash not working

Hi guys,

I have a little problem here with my chromium and flash.

So I updated chromium to 35.0.1916.114 (270117) and was aware, that I might need pepper-flash to get flash working.
I installed pepper-flash from the AUR(version 13.0.0.214-2) but still, no pepper-flash or any flash in chrome://plugins, and chrome://flash tells me no flash plugin is installed.

/etc/chromium/default entry:
CHROMIUM_FLAGS=" --ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/PepperFlash/libpepflashplayer.so --ppapi-flash-version=13.0.0.214"


Am I missing here something, or why isn't this working?

Thanks.

Yes, I read that thread thank you. The strange thing is, if I check chrome://flash it says, that no flash plugin is installed. Althought pepper-flash _is_ installed

Have you tried the dev version of the package?

Same problem.

Flash plugin    Not installed

[edit] Well this is strange. I tried this before, but now it worked(don't ask me why). Solution was to delete/rename .config/chromium

I tried this yesterday with no success, now it worked. Strange, but, the problem is solved, thank you.

Re: {solved}[chromium] pepper-flash not working

I had the same issue and deleting or renaming ~/.config/chromium also worked for me. 
I would suggest moving ~/.config/chromium to ~/.config/chromium_old, restarting Chromium, and then copying ~/.config/chromium_old/Default to the newly created ~/.config/chromium.  Doing this will allow you to keep most (all?) of your bookmarks, browser settings, etc as they were.  You can then delete the old chromium config directory.
