"Building database" box

Sun Mar 11, 2007 3:16 am
When I launch Amarok, I get a little gray box that says, "building database", which disappears after a second or two and Amarok then fails to launch.  Someone told me there was a folder that I can remove to get it working again, but they weren't sure what it was.  I'm not at all concerned with losing rating/stats or anything like that.  Thanks in advance.

Which version?
And what does the terminal output say?

That looks suspicious. Maybe you should try to move/rename/delete (make a backup first!) the file (/home/alex/.kde/share/config/amarokrc) and restart Amarok.
Good luck!

How about upgrading to 1.4.5?
