Ubuntu – Google Chrome on Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop Can’t Running, Error initializing NSS with a persistent database

14.04aptgoogle-chromepackage-managementsoftware installation

Previously, I performed sudo apt-get dist-upgrade OS from terminal, after which google-chrome-stable could not run.

I've reinstalled google-chrome-stable on My local, but it's still an error when running google-chrome-stable.

Here, error when running google-chrome-stable

$ sudo google-chrome-stable 
[4698:4698:0731/160305:ERROR:nss_util.cc(712)] Error initializing NSS with a persistent database (sql:/home/sts/.pki/nssdb): libsoftokn3.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[4698:4698:0731/160305:FATAL:nss_util.cc(209)] nss_error=-5925, os_error=0

I found that libnss3-nssdb was removed and libnss3 was upgraded in a partial upgrade on my Ubuntu with sudo apt-get dist-upgrade.

libnss3-nssdb depends on libnss3

Now I try to install libnss3-nssdb :

$ sudo apt-get install libnss3-nssdb
...............................................
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libnss3-nssdb : Depends: libnss3 (= 2:3.15.4-1ubuntu7) but 2:3.26.2-0ubuntu0.12.04.1 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

And I get the broken package when it will install libnss3-nssdb

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Now, downgrade the version libnss3-nssdb to 2: 3.15.4-1ubuntu7.

sudo apt install libnss3=2:3.15.4-1ubuntu7

After downgrade, I can running chrome apps on my local.

This it work for me.
