I am using Chromium Version 36.0.1985.125 on Ubuntu 12.04 . My flashplayer is working just fine in Firefox, but it is not working in chromium. I get the message "flashplayer upgrade required" when I try to play flash videos. Is there any solution to this?



I searched around this problem, and tried some solutions such as:




  • reinstalling flashplayer

  • updating packages

  • installing from software center

  • copying the flashplugin-alternative.so from firefox library to chromium library

  • installing pepperflashplugin-nonfree but got Package 'pepperflashplugin-nonfree' has no installation candidate

  • searching pepperflash in the software center and couldn't find it.



Here is the output of command dpkg -l *flash*:

means you have some problems with repositories. This package is the only way to get flash in Chromium. Do it. Try changing repository mirrors.
