Android Version: 11

Bug Description

The app crashes when opening.
Logcat shows a lot of errors which seem to have to do with a missing directory, or unability to create some directories.
Here's a snippet from the logs :

Please let me know if there is any more info I could provide.
I could not find any SELinux denial linked to these errors.

Additional checks

• I have checked other bug reports and this is not a duplicate.
• This is a bug in Vanced Manager and NOT YouTube Vanced/YouTube Vanced Music/Vanced microG.

Turns out I was only getting this issue when downloading the apk on my device and installing it from files browser, installing through adb seems to work fine.
I'll let you decide whether to close this issue or keep it open :)

The crash log is super odd. Are you installing manager on SD Card or any other external storage device by any chance?

[Bluexin]

I downloaded the file to my device and installed it with the default installer, which does not let me pick where to install it.
Note that the sd card is configured for "device and app storage".

Now after installing through adb :

find / -name "*databases*" -links 2 2> /dev/null | grep vanced                                                                                                                                                                  
./dev/R0Z7/.magisk/mirror/data/data/com.vanced.manager/databases
./data_mirror/data_ce/null/0/com.vanced.manager/databases
./data/user/0/com.vanced.manager/databases
./data/data/com.vanced.manager/databases

these locations popped up

Hmm, I'm guessing it's some kind of bug with the software on your system, and particularly, how it handles apps on external storage devices (Certified Samsung Moment™️)
