Surf browser not working properly, crashes.

MG_

For a cash system that runs FreeBSD in a store, I need to configure a printer using the cupsd webinterface. For this, I'm trying to build and install the www/surf browser. I am able to compile and run the program on the target system, which is a custom FreeBSD 12.3 live system. It is able to view various sites using the -s option for no javascript. Without this option, it crashes. also on the cupsd page (http://localhost:631)

Could not read style file: /usr/home/root/.surf/styles/default.css
libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to authenticate
web process terminated: crashed

I installed and checked the versions of all run-dependencies of surf.
Where do I have to look for the problem?

bsduck

Does it crash at program start or when you try to load a page?

Do other browsers using WebkitGTK also crash? You can try with luakit or vimb for example.

Surf doesn't crash on specific sites while using the -s option. Without it, it apparently crashes on any site content after +/- 2 seconds.

Meanwhile, I tried epiphany since I already had parts of it's installation scriptcode. Working on luakit

This may indicate that pixbuf loaders or the mime database could not be found.

The mentioned icon file exists. Packages gnome-icon-theme, shared-mime-info and gnome-mime-data are installed

The target system is a dedicated minimal FreeBSD/X environment that runs entirely in RAM for security reasons. Adding programs to it is kind of complex, but the interactive cupsd configuration in a lightweight browser would be a nice improvement. 1 problem is that most printers require files that can't be created with anything else. Until now, I had to do this with another FreeBSD system.

Wouldn't it be possible to use print/system-config-printer instead of the web interface?

Never heard of it. It doesn\t exist in tne 12.3-RELEASE ports, but I use more ports from other major versions. It doesn't have to be a problem...
What does it do? I need to be able to print postscript files without user interaction. This currently is a construction of filters and converters, combined with foomatic on top of cups. To implement, this has been the most annoying part of the whole system. I blame HP for vendor lock-in. This interactive configuration forces dependency of their own (inconsistent) standards.

bsduck

It's basically a GUI for CUPS configuration, if I remember correctly it offers the same options as the web interface, but in a standalone GTK application.

What I found out is that I need to run #update-mime-database /usr/local/share/mime. This stops the icon-related errors.

I installed system-config-printer. It warns about many things being deprecated, but detects the printer . However, it refuses to accept it with the strange message: "There was an error during CUPS operation: 'request entity too large'.
No idea what it's talking about...

Also tried luakit. It looks for a bunch of lua files but I don't know what I miss. The default config file /usr/local/etc/xdg/luakit/rc.lua exists but fails. It refers to all these non-existing files:
