I have pclinuxos kde plasma 5. I did try to install new services (contextual menu mouse dx), and all seems go well (no error): http://i63.tinypic.com/2zfncdu.jpg;
but no new menu in actions: http://i65.tinypic.com/fm1g10.jpg.
Could you help me?

Earlier - with the Root Actions Servicemenu:
viewtopic.php?f=225&t=135525#p362564
and
viewtopic.php?f=225&t=135525#p362572

Do you have the 'ruby' installed ?

The desktop files need to be placed to the KDE service path:

KF5 (KDE Frameworks 5):

Code: Select all

kf5-config --path services

=>
~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/
or
/usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/

Are they installed there ?

Starting the Dolphin from the Konsole:

Code: Select all

$ dolphin

Starting Dolphin's 'Download New Services'

Trying to install the 'audiokonverter'
=> Konsole has

The file "/home/rog131/.local/share/knewstuff3/servicemenu.knsregistry" could not be opened.
/usr/bin/env: ‘ruby’: No such file or directory
Command failed

The 'file "/home/rog131/.local/share/knewstuff3/servicemenu.knsregistry" could not be opened.'
This is because this was the first try to install the servicemenu from the Dolphin.
The 'file "/home/rog131/.local/share/knewstuff3/servicemenu.knsregistry was created and the downloaded files was marked there.

The '/usr/bin/env: ‘ruby’: No such file or directory' is the real problem. The ruby is needed to install downloaded service menus. Downloaded files are at : ~/.local/share/servicemenu-download/

This is the (log) output:
"/usr/bin/servicemenudeinstallation:16:in `initialize': No such file or directory @ dir_initialize - /home/duns/.local/share/servicemenu-download//12608-audiokonverter-5.9.1.tar.bz2-dir (Errno::ENOENT)

Okay.

1) Do you have the KDE4 or KF5 Dolphin ?

KDE4 -About Dolphin:



KDE Frameworks 5 (KF5) - About Dolphin:




The desktop files need to be placed to the KDE service path:

KDE4:

Code: Select all

kde4-config --path services

=>
(If the distribution is using ~/.kde/)
~/.kde/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/
or
(If the distribution is using ~/.kde4/)
~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/
and
/usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/


KF5 (KDE Frameworks 5):

Code: Select all

kf5-config --path services

=>
~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/
and
/usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/


The executable scripts need to be placed to the executable path:

Code: Select all

echo $PATH

2) installKDE4.sh: line 106: kdialog: command not found

Do you have the kdialog installed ?


By a quick glance

Browsing to the http://kdelook.org/content/show.php/audiokonverter+(also+for+KDE4)?content=12608

audiokonverter (also for KDE4)

Minimum required KDE 3.x

Updated: Dec 2 2014

This seems to be for the KDE3/KDE4. The installation scripts need an update to work with the KF5.

You could install it by copying the executable scripts and the desktop files to the right places...

The 12608-audiokonverter-5.9.1.tar.bz2 has a README file.

1) KDE5.

2) [duns@localhost ~]$ kf5-config --path services
/home/duns/.local/share/kservices5/:/usr/share/kservices5/

3) ~/.local/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/ and /usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/
I have only "/usr/share/kservices5/ServiceMenus/"

4) echo $PATH
/usr/bin:/usr/lib64/qt5/bin:/usr/lib64/kf5:/usr/libexec:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/games:/usr/lib64/qt4/bin:/usr/lib64/qt5/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lib64/kde4/libexec:/bin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lib64/kde4/libexec:/bin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/home/duns/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/lib64/kde4/libexec:/bin:/sbin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin

5) Do you have the kdialog installed ? YES

Finally: the problem is my distro?

You could create missing directories.

I can't comment your distro question as I don't use the PCLInuxOS (?).

At here, the servicemenus are working with the

Dolphin 16.08.0 & KF5 .25.0:


and with the Plasma 5.7.4 (folder view) & KF 5.25.0:



An older topic: Service Menus Missing - viewtopic.php?f=223&t=128621
Back then the problem was the missing konqpopupmenuplugin.desktop. This bug ( https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350769 ) has been fixed Sat, 03 Oct 2015.

Thank you

The problem is also in Kaos.
