Cause/Solution

I did the recommended commands from the error page. It told me that it failed with code 0. I ran the command for the full output and got a node error that the binary (/usr/bin/chromium-browser) didn't exist. Symlinking that path to ./chromium fixed it for the time being.

After that running the command again, actually did the singlefile job successfully.

So seems that there is some node stuff using the wrong chrome binary. Or the docker-compose.yml that hub.docker.com recommended me is missing some configuration. (this file was the latest version on the link to the master branch).

This seems to be a know bug for ARM, see https://github.com/puppeteer/puppeteer/issues/6614

Closing this as stale for now. I've tested it on x86, armv7, and armv8 (aka arm64 or aarch64) and singlefile w/ chrome seem to be working in Docker.

Please open a new issue if you're still encountering trouble on ArchiveBox version >= 0.7.2.
