hi folks! i've got two independent problems with kde-installations on different boxes here. problem 1: ========= one the first box, running testing, i've got a strange error-message upon starting konqueror: "There was an error setting up inter-process communications for KDE. The message returned by the system was: Could not read network connection list /path/to/home/dirs/gurke/DCOPserver_hostname_localhost_11 please check that the "dcopserver" program is running!" then, a second error-msg pops up: "Protocol not supported: file" kde then pops up - but (as expected) nothing works. opening a http-url for instance returns also protocol not supported. a "ps -ef | grep dcop" returns: gurke 1080 1 0 Apr21 ? 00:00:00 kdeinit: dcopserver --nosid after playing around a bit, i've found out that the permissions of the kde-dirs in /tmp aren't set correctly: drw------- 2 gurke gurke 4096 Apr 25 13:28 kde-gurke drw------- 2 gurke gurke 4096 Apr 26 00:09 ksocket-gurke readjusting the permissions to 700 for both dirs fixes the problem for a while. this error occurs on a box which is long time up and running (40+ days). after resetting the permission it takes 1-2 weeks until the problem happens again. problem 2: ========= this problem occurs on by unstable machine after each boot since the upgrade to kde 3.2. i noticed a problem in konqueror when accessing https-sites with certificates not signed by a known authority. konqueror warns that the certificate is not fully trusted and asks if it should be accepted for the current session or forever. i click on forever but get instantly asked again. i think i get asked for each ressource of the page loaded. another time, i wanted to tweak some of the kde-services in the kde-control-panel and i got the error-message that kded is not running. i started kded by hand and then noticed that now, also konqueror behaves correctly again concerning the https-issue. so - no problem at all if kded runs. my question now is: why doesn't it get started automatically? is kded a new daemon introduced with kde3.2? or is it a problem of my setup? thanks a lot for any hints about those problems - if somebody needs more detailled info - just send me a message... kind regards, Pascal -- Pascal Mainini ------- open-minded computer artist encrypted mail preferred ----- http://www.impressionet.ch/crypto/ more? -> www.impressionet.ch --- artist? -> www.guerk.li jabber? - gurke@swissjabber.ch
