Why Postman crashes right after launch

The postman crashes about 5 seconds after starting. My last operation was bulk load for ElasticSearch. The load worked as far as I can tell. Now the postman is falling. I tried restarting a few times, but all it does hangs for a few seconds and then crashes.

I have Chrome version 56. Postman version: 4.10.4

In case anyone else encounters this issue, Postman stores all of its data locally in the application's indexed DB file. In my case also the data was too big and the postman started to crash. The following steps might help, they did in my case:

  • chrome://indexeddb-internals

  • Look for: chrome-extension://fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop

  • In the "Paths:" section, note the location of the folder chrome-extension_fhbjgbiflinjbdggehcddcbncdddomop_0.indexeddb.leveldb

  • Go to this location on your local system.

  • Copy the entire contents of this folder and save it to a safe location on your local system to be used later (your collections will be in a DB file in this folder)

  • Remove the Postman extension from Chrome and then re-add the Postman extension.



Postman should open, but these will be the default settings with none of your collections.
