Puppeteer cannot open shared object file libxshmfence.so.1

While executing the puppeteer script on ubuntu (VERSION="20.04.2 LTS (Focal Fossa)") server I am getting this error because of some missing peer dependencies (I think).

Thanks already

Solution

  • node_modules/puppeteer/.local-chromium/linux-XXXXXX/chrome-linux/chrome needs shared library libxshmfence.so.1.

    Run the following command to install libxshmfence.so.1.

    sudo apt install libxshmfence-dev
