ted@ted-SG41 ~ $

There are some error messages when I exit the program, but maybe that is part of the shutdown.

But, one of the suggested fixes above must have worked because the problem(s) I was encountering seem to have gone away. I can save configuration settings in kmymoney now. I also added a user who doesn't have admin privileges and could create an account and save config settings there as well.

So, unless someone tells me otherwise, I'm gonna assume the problem is solved.

Thank all of you for your help.

Ted

According to the trace "/home/ted/.aqbanking" is still not writable so if you would like to use AqBanking (HBCI) you should set the correct permissions on that folder also, to do that run as root:

Code: Select all

chown -R ted:ted /home/ted/.aqbanking

Here one can see that aqbanking is locked:

Code: Select all

3:2010/12/18 19-31-00:gwen(3235):fslock.c: 141: open(/home/ted/.aqbanking/settings/aqbanking/config.conf.lck): Permission denied


which can happen if your application crashed somewhere in the middle of a data transfer, or you interrupted it forcibly.

You definitely should remove the locks. Read the manual how to do this properly, I have no clue right now. A quick glance with "--help" tells me that unfortunately neither aqbanking-cli's nor aqhbci-tool4's usage info give any hint on how to achieve this - perhaps simple deletion of lock files...

I once had a case like this myself and I believe it was so that aqbanking-cli ceased to function, that it got always stuck and would hang and that a call of "aqhbci-tool4 listaccounts" fixed the dangling lock(s) itself. I might remember wrong, however... Try it out!

Here one can see that aqbanking is locked:

... or that AqBanking cannot set the lock in the first place (permission denied).

Once I realized I needed to preface the command above with sudo, it worked! No error messages when I run kmymoney in terminal.

Thanks,

How right you are.
My bad.
I didn't notice that...
