I have the same issue on my server running Mint. I made a copy of the database.sqlite file so I didn't have to rescan and set up everything again (found in /home/USER/.komga), uninstalled and then reinstalled version 1.14.1 using the below command the command line. I took them from the official download page and just changed the version numbers so it pointed to a previous one.

CPU=$(dpkg --print-architecture)
wget https://download.komga.org/debian/gotson-komga_1.14.1_${CPU}.deb
sudo apt install ./gotson-komga_1.14.1_${CPU}.deb

It's not a fix but at least you'll be able to keep using it until Gotson is able to get around to making any changes, but I would assume they're taking a well deserved break for Christmas and new year

[gotson]

the logs show that the app is started and running, nothing unusual

[most-likely-2b]

What do you recommend my next steps should be? The application is still not starting and I still can't access my server in the browser.

[most-likely-2b]

As posted above by Merkulese, rolling back to version 1.14.1 has fixed the behaviour, so I can confirm that something in versions 1.15.0 and beyond is causing this issue.

I am also having the issue. Linux Mint 21.3
Rolling back to 1.14.1 worked for a while but then komga updated automatically and stopped working again. Application does not start in system tray and is not accessible through browser.

the application does start, the logs say so.

but then komga updated automatically

Komga does not auto update on Linux, you probably updated using apt

[Merkulese]

I've got some info that might help point us in the right direction: As Gotson and the logs show, the app does start but in my observations using system monitor (task manager) I can see when it loads up, uses resources and then after a minute or two reduces all resource usage to nothing and then closes. Unfortunately I've not been able to find out exactly why it happens but it does so every time the app is started. For updating, the latest version of komga appears in the update manager and the issue only started on my server after updating to 1.15.1. I tried rolling back to 1.15.0 but that also had the same issue of the app opening and then auto-closing after a short time.

I've just seen the 1.16.0 update and haven't tested it yet but will check at some point in the next day or so and feedback the results here

[Merkulese]

Issue remains on 1.16.0. app runs for a moment and then auto-closes so I've rolled back to 1.14.1 again
