# Chrome Download Diagnostics
|
|
|
|
When Chrome downloads stall or get cancelled, the browser stores detailed state in a SQLite database. This is useful for diagnosing why downloads failed (e.g. Safe Browsing, network issues, etc.).
|
|
|
|
## Chrome's Download History DB
|
|
|
|
**Location:** `~/.config/google-chrome/Default/History`
|
|
|
|
For a Docker/Kasm container:
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker cp <container>:~/.config/google-chrome/Default/History /tmp/chrome_history.db
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Key Queries
|
|
|
|
### All recent downloads with state + reason codes
|
|
```python
|
|
import sqlite3
|
|
conn = sqlite3.connect('/tmp/chrome_history.db')
|
|
cur = conn.cursor()
|
|
|
|
state_map = {
|
|
0: 'IN_PROGRESS', 1: 'COMPLETE', 2: 'CANCELLED',
|
|
3: 'INTERRUPTED', 4: 'INTERRUPTED_AUTO_RESUME'
|
|
}
|
|
reason_map = {
|
|
0: 'No interrupt', 40: 'FILE_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILED',
|
|
50: 'NETWORK_FAILED', 51: 'NETWORK_TIMEOUT',
|
|
52: 'NETWORK_DISCONNECTED', 58: 'SERVER_UNAUTHORIZED',
|
|
70: 'USER_CANCELED', 71: 'USER_SHUTDOWN', 80: 'CRASH'
|
|
}
|
|
danger_map = {
|
|
0: 'SAFE', 4: 'UNCOMMON', 1: 'DANGEROUS', 2: 'DANGEROUS_URL'
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
cur.execute('''
|
|
SELECT id, target_path, state, interrupt_reason,
|
|
total_bytes, received_bytes, danger_type, end_time
|
|
FROM downloads ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 15
|
|
''')
|
|
for r in cur.fetchall():
|
|
sid, path, state, reason, total, recv, danger, et = r
|
|
s = state_map.get(state, f'UNK({state})')
|
|
name = path.split('/')[-1] if path else '(no path)'
|
|
total_gb = f'{total//1024//1024} MB' if total else '?'
|
|
print(f'ID {sid}: {name} → {s} ({total_gb})')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Check for in-progress downloads
|
|
```sql
|
|
SELECT * FROM downloads WHERE state=0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Common Error Patterns
|
|
|
|
| Scenario | State | Reason Code | Danger |
|
|
|----------|-------|-------------|--------|
|
|
| Large file killed by Safe Browsing | CANCELLED (2) | 40 (FILE_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILED) | 4 (UNCOMMON) |
|
|
| Network dropped mid-download | INTERRUPTED (3) | 52 (NETWORK_DISCONNECTED) | 0 |
|
|
| User cancelled | CANCELLED (2) | 70 (USER_CANCELED) | 0 |
|
|
| Chrome crash | INTERRUPTED (3) | 80 (CRASH) | 0 |
|
|
|
|
## Chrome Managed Policies (Linux)
|
|
|
|
Policies live in `/etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/` for system-wide or under the user's profile. Multiple JSON files are merged automatically.
|
|
|
|
**To disable download scanning:**
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"DownloadRestrictions": 0,
|
|
"SafeBrowsingEnabled": false,
|
|
"SafeBrowsingProtectionForDownloadEnabled": false
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
After writing the policy file, restart Chrome: `pkill -f chrome` (the Kasm container will auto-restart it).
