Chromium fails to open any page, sandbox error

Reported by sylwekwa...@gmail.com, Mar 20 2018

Issue description

Chrome Version       : Chromium 67.0.3377.0, Chromium 65.0.3325.162
URLs (if applicable) :
Other browsers tested:
  Add OK or FAIL, along with the version, after other browsers where you

     Safari: OK
    Firefox: OK
       Edge: OK
Google Chrome: OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Executed Chromium through "chrome.exe" without any arguments
(2) Went to any web page or chrome settings

What is the expected result?
Show the web page or settings

What happens instead?
Empty page, as in the screenshot attached.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

The debug.log repeats continuosly following error:
"[0320/125309.698:ERROR:sandbox_policy_base.cc(344)] Failed to add sandbox rule. error = 2, subsystem = 0, semantics = 1, pattern = 'C:\Users\Sylwek\AppData\Local\Chromium\Application\*.pdb'"


The first time I noticed the error was when I launched Selenium Chrome WebDriver,
but on Selenium Web Chrome  Driver it shows following error:
"[18120:13324:0320/125939.923:ERROR:browser_gpu_channel_host_factory.cc(120)] Failed to launch GPU process.
[18120:18116:0320/125939.949:ERROR:gpu_process_transport_factory.cc(1019)] Lost UI shared context." and it shows exactly the same broken chrome window.

Everything works without problem on my laptop, it doesn't work only on my main computer with AMD processor and an integrated AMD Radeon 7660D graphics.
I suspect some problems with that graphics chip, as I remember everything was working fine few years earlier on the same computer but with GeForce 8800 card.

Also, Chromium works fairly fine with "--no-sandbox" argument (aside of annoying warning messages). Google Chrome 65.0.3325.162 works fine, but same Chromium version doesn't work and makes the same error as described.

Ah, forgot to mention,
In Selenium Chrome WebDriver, when I execute it with "--disable-gpu" chromium option, then the first error message ("Failed to launch GPU process") disappears and only "[18120:18116:0320/125939.949:ERROR:gpu_process_transport_factory.cc(1019)] Lost UI shared context." is left.

The issue seems to be out of TE-scope as it is related to Selenium Chrome WebDriver. Hence, adding label TE-NeedsTriageHelp for further investigation from dev team.

Thanks...!!
Hi, I may have not stated that clearly, but that error "Failed to add sandbox rule" appeared on standalone Chromium, outside of Selenium Chrome WebDriver.

I first noticed the problem on Selenium WebDriver, but later I installed separately the newest Chromium and saw that error, so I assumed that the error was not related WebDriver but rather to Chromium itself.

It is strange that WebDriver shows different errors, but both WebDriver as well as standalone Chromium work fine with "--no-sandbox" argument.
