{SOLVED} Setting up Klibido

[Tim036]

Used to work but stopped working.

No idea what the procedure is to get it working.

The only thing that looks ok is the 'New Server' option in the second pull down menu.

It leads into action on a doenload/ok and then after a couple on minutes stops trying.

Any thoughts very welcome.

Re: Setting up Klibido

Take a look at THIS PAGE at the Klibido site. I assume that you are aware that this is a KDE3 program that will not work in versions of Kubuntu that use KDE4, specifically Intrepid, Jaunty, and Karmic.

You didn't mention which version of Kubuntu you are using, so it occurred to me that an upgrade might account for its sudden stoppage.

I use a June 08 version of Hardy Heron which has not been upgraded.

I'll check out your links .

Many many thanks for responding.

Failed to find anything that I could understand that would help from those links.

A simple question - is what server setting you you use other than Hosting detail ?

Klibido has a tendency to corrupt databases. I would suggest going to your home directory and under /klibido/db delete the queue file and restart klibido.

Does this mean the menu is messed up? or what?

delete all the files from the ~/klibido/db directory. You will have to redo your server setup and group list. This will rule out database corruption, which is a common problem with klibido.

another thing to try, if you already haven't, is to launch it from a terminal and see if there is any debug output that might tell you what is going on.
