Android BorrowError panic in wry and inability to restart/launch

[tristan-morris]

Describe the bug
I'm attempting to run Tauri on an existing prod React project. I have been encountering a panic somewhat reliably after a deep-link is called (user goes to complete oauth flow, deep-link drops them back in the app successfully - this works great). However, on next app launch it seems like the deep-link state is still present and causes a panic. This panic is then irrecoverable. Force-quit the tauri app = panic. Try and force-quit again and panic. App is then dead mostly. Sometimes it will come back, as if a bad event has been dispatched successfully. Delete the app from the device and it can be reliably installed.

I have been able to cause the same set of panics with a similar flow - when there's competition for launching the WebKitClient(?).

I haven't made much more progress on this issue but happy to keep looking into it.

Steps To Reproduce

• Install Tauri
• Install deep-link plugin (may not entirely be necessary - I've caused it other ways but this seems semi reliable)
• Configure a deep link
• Trigger a deep-link to arrive back in app
• Close the app (kill)
• Re-launch the app.

Expected behavior
No panic.

I'm getting a similar error. I'm using MapLibre GL JS in tauri on android and occasionally while zooming/panning around in the map I get a crash:

Interesting! Thanks for the report as it helped confirm my sanity.

I'm using Mapbox Gl Js so it could relate somehow. As a counter point, I haven't had any crashes (past hour or two) when dev'ing on my Mac M1, but my much more performant PC panics.

This is probably related to: #1379

Thanks for confirming! I moved to capacitorjs after making no progress.
