Today i download 5.4.2.f and when i try to change buid target ant try to build unity crash, its not new bug, and appears two months ago, im very upset because im hoping it solves on new release but not. This bug makes unity unusable at all. Im not a windoes user, and dont want to be one, im paying pro licence but now i change my mind about that.
5.5.0.f3 Exact same problem, the last build without this problem its 5.5.0.b1 no bug report window lanched on crash on this release. Im using Debian Jessie
5.6.0b3 Crash Again If its not unity problem, please give a light, its totally useless unity on linux right now, and have not any help here
Jesus man put the logs in code brackets or something this thread is unreadable on a mobile device. I had a build issue with 5.5 on ubuntu. Upgrading to 5.6 fixed it for me and another poster.
you might check out https://forum.unity3d.com/threads/5-6-03b-npm-issues.448817/#post-2905785 there seems to be an issue with npm. I'll be honest I've never had an issue with unity until the last month. Suddenly npm is wrong, updade it then make won't work. So update to 5.6, and it started to work, with an old npm... I'd check out this npm issue, unity look they are looking into a fix in the thread.
I update npm and follow instructions to fix gray screen, anyway it still crashing when i try to build on any platform webgl Linux Platform think npm its not the problem
I'll be honest this looks like exactly the same issue I had. Grey screen, update gtk, Nmp etc unity works. But build crashes unity? I think this is what you're saying? I've fixed it but I'm not really sure how. I switch npm versions, gtk version. I thend did a fresh lubuntu build ( had to hard drive fail ) unity 5.5 same build crash issue. So tried 5.6 and with lubuntu 15.04 and it worked. There also seems to be some people with windows reporting this sort of issue, so I think it's something I unity's end Edit should add I installed amd drivers from their site not the ubuntu repo ones Edit 2 also install mono complete and the extra packages from the bottom of this thread (tak) https://forum.unity3d.com/threads/framework-mono-net-3-5-not-installed.448857/
Really i dont know, but at last i install ubuntu and looks like works fine there. im sorry about debian.
This is somewhat disheartening. Having the same issue here, also on Debian 8. Tried Unity 5.5.0p1 and 5.6.0b3. In both cases the editor just crashes whenever I try to build, regardless of build target. Editor log from 5.5 attached, pretty much the same picture as seyacat's.
