DCOP problems with kate and konquerer (KDE problem?)
I tried sending this from a different account, and it never went
through, so I am resending it. (No erro messages, or bounce back, just
no posting on the list.) I appologize now if the original makes it
through some time and you get a double post.
Just yesterday, I started having problems with kate. It will start up,
and then give me errors about not being able to start the DCOP server
and some process aborting. The list of open files that is usually on
the left does not appear, and if I go to open a file, the open dialog
box shows NO files, even when the directory has many files in it.
Just this morning, I noticed that konqueror is also giving me errors
about starting the DCOP server.
I am running Sarge, with kernel 2.6.7. I do NOT run the full KDE (I use
fvwm2).
When I try to start konqueror I get a dialog box saying:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There was an error setting up inter-process
communication for KDE. The message returned
by the system was:
Could not read network connection list.
/home/mns/.DCOPserver_xander_:0
Please check that the "dcopserver" program is running.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once I click on "OK, konqueror comes up and another dialog says:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Could not start process
can't talk to klauncher
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, the on screen errors are:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I try to start kate I get the same series of dialogs. This time
the open files list did appear. I can close the file (unedited), but
when I try to open a new file I get the "Could not start process" dialog
and the list of files is empty.
The on screen errors are:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Is this a problem with KDE? Has a bug been filed, or should one be?
I can live without konqueror, but I use kate all the time.
Help!
