Description Bunk Bunk 2017-10-02 21:59:17 CEST

Since the upgrade to mga 6, mldonkey does not work anymore.

The Deamon is started by the command mlnet

Since the upgrade it is going back to prompt

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there is no registered maintainer for this package.

Also CC'ing some committers.

Works for me!

Could you have a look to your ./mlnet.log and report what it says in there?

thanks

Comment 3 Bunk Bunk 2017-10-03 19:19:36 CEST

There is not much in it

Please, check your configurations files, and rename/remove this file

Comment 4 Chris Denice 2017-10-04 00:05:30 CEST

Thanks, yes there is enough :)

mlnet has certainly crashed before, letting backup configuration files floating around.
Remove the file "searches.ini.tmp" and start again. You may have another message like this, if there are other files *.ini.tmp. So keep removing the offending ones till mlnet starts!

Let us know if this works!

Cheers.

Comment 5 Bunk Bunk 2017-10-04 00:33:00 CEST

You was right. I works again, but i had to reboot. Great.

I´m 100 % sure, though, that the bug emerged with the upgrade. Before, i experienced missed attempts in 10 % of the launch processes.

Comment 6 Chris Denice 2017-10-04 21:42:51 CEST

Yes, that's possible, the version of mldonkey changed on upgrade, so it may have caused a crash of the old one running!
I am closing the bug then!

Cheers.
