Crash on startup

Sat Jan 21, 2006 9:23 pm
Hello !

I installed amarok on my Ubuntu Breezy, but I can\'t use it because of this error when I start the program :

amarok could\'nt find any sound extension engine. amarok is updating the configuration database of KDE. Please, wait a minute, and then start again amaroK.

If it doesn\'t help you, it\'s posible that amaroK is installed under a erroneous prefix, please correct your installation using :
$ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ ./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca
$amaroK


That is what I can see in the terminal :
$ amarok
amaroK: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
amaroK: [Loader] Don\'t run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokap p.
kbuildsycoca running...
Reusing existing ksycoca
kbuildsycoca: ERROR creating database \'/var/tmp/kdecache-antoine/ksycoca\'!
kbuildsycoca: Wrong permissions on directory? Disk full?
kio (KMimeType): WARNING: KServiceType::offers : servicetype amaroK/Plugin not found
kio (KMimeType): WARNING: KServiceType::offers : servicetype amaroK/Plugin not found

kbuildsycoca: ERROR creating database \'/var/tmp/kdecache-antoine/ksycoca\'!
kbuildsycoca: Wrong permissions on directory? Disk full?
amaroK: [Loader] amaroK is taking a long time to load! Perhaps something has gone wrong?


I tried to solve the problem installing those packages : amarok-engines, amarok-arts, amarok-xine, but it didn\'t change anything !! (the packages amarok and amarok-gstreamer were already installed)

Finally, I don\'t know how can I solve this problem ? :dry:
thank you for your help,
tonyo

It helps to read the output:

\"kbuildsycoca: Wrong permissions on directory? Disk full?\"
