I am having issues with snaps. I first noticed this because anbox
, a snap I had installed and used previously, stopped launching, so I then tried reinstalling upon which I would receive the following:
error: cannot perform the following tasks:
- Run install hook of "anbox" snap if present (run hook "install": cannot locate base snap core: No such file or directory)
I know core
is a snap that should already be installed, so I did a snap list
and got the following:
Just to see if it was specific to anbox
or an issue with snaps, in general, I tried installing the hello-world
snap and got the following:
$ sudo snap install hello-world
[sudo] password for zany130:
hello-world 6.4 from Canonical✓ installed
hello-world
cannot locate base snap core: No such file or directory
So no snaps are working on my Ubuntu machine. I also tried installing a snap through the Software Center, again it would install but not run. Do you have any ideas about what to do next?
snapd
to fix this by runningsudo apt install --reinstall snapd
in the terminal. After that see if it is fixed or you can also runsudo snap install snapd
in the terminal as it is missing from yoursnap list
in the screenshot you posted. Best of luck
