ONLYOFFICE Appimage is not working in XFCE

Hello, I am using Garuda Linux (XFCE Desktop) since about 15 days.
I was previously using Gnome 44 with Garuda but decided to switch.
The software I want to use, ONLYOFFICE (v 7.4.1) (an alternative office suite) package called onlyoffice-bin from chaotic aur repository, Is dependancy deadlocked with the package ttf-google-fonts-git as it already provides one font ttf-carlito ,
Which is required by ONLYOFFICE as a separately installed Dependancy.
So instead To work around this I downloaded an AppImage instead, but even with Appimage Launcher, it is not working, (after clicking on it, nothing happens).

I faced same issue in Gnome previously (dependancy deadlock), but there, Onlyoffice AppImage worked and launched properly.

Can you assist me findong solution to this problem?

here’s garuda-inxi output from my system.

My search in forum.

Hi, I read few of the posts.
I currently have not installed the explicit ttf-carlito package (it conflicts with ttf-googlefonts-git).
The ttf-google-fonts-git package mentioned in above post is not the one I have installed, rather an updated package from chaotic-aur repository : (https://archlinux.pkgs.org/rolling/chaotic-aur-x86_64/ttf-google-fonts-git-1:r6221.439aeb22f-1-any.pkg.tar.zst.html)[ttf-google-fonts-git from Chaotic AUR].

which one of these can be a problem?
– AppImage not working
– Problem with AppImage Launcher
– Problem with XFCE not working with Appimages
– LTS kernel : (previously I was using Zen kernel with Gnome where Appimage worked)

IDK onlyoffice, try libreoffice :slight_smile:

Xfce and LTS kernel shouldn’t be the problem.
Appimage had an issue a few months ago for which it was not launching unless you downgraded squashfuse, but that’s solved now.
So, I’d point to appimage launcher.
Have you just installed it? If so, please reboot before using it.

Hello, Sorry for the late reply.
Yes, I have Installed Appimage Launcher Properly.
I have rebooted System.
I got the Simplenote Appimage working Just fine. but even after multiple downloads and integration, the ONLYOFFICE Appimage seems to be not working.
Can you still help me with this?
sidenote. after clicking on the ONLYOFFICE Appimage, nothing shows up in XFCE Task manager or HTOP.
