ArchiveBox: ArchiveBox v0.6.2 on bare metal is unable to use newest Chromium version v114 (fails to archive PDF, Screenshot, or DOM)

I have installed archivebox and everything has worked fine other than Chromium, and CHROME_BINARY is valid. I’ve also specified CHROME_USER_DATA_DIR to /tmp/chrome-profile but doesn’t make any change.

I think this issue is related to this issue:

Orphan chromium processes continue running after ArchiveBox snapshot jobs complete

By running docker top archivebox I can see that the chromium processes persist after finishing archiving. When this happens, the singletonlock file persists and is not killed.
