Title: aMule doesn't start
Post by: Deady on August 07, 2004, 11:41:02 AM

I installed aMule, started it - it worked ok for the 1st time. When I exited and started amule again, it didn't started. I tried to start in command line:

[user@PC user]$ amule
Initialising aMule
Userhash loaded: 1FC11C112B0E7E8E55DEFC3C013B6F01
*** UDP socket at 4665
*** TCP socket at 4662
*** UDP socket at 4672
Aborted
[user@PC user]$ amule

I tried 2 reinstall it, having erased all wx* packages, but it didn't help.
The strangiest thing is, that aMule do start from root:
>su
>amule
this will work, but under normal user it doesn't work.

it helped, thanks.
i think the problem was - i made some preferences wrong, while using it for the 1st time - that is why it didn't start 2nd time

))))

Title: I had the same problem
Post by: Drfrag on September 08, 2004, 03:38:35 PM

I had that problem after installation of Xmule.
I had Amule runnig perfect before that.
I think the problem started after I configured xmule to use KDE 3.2 shell integration.
This feature was not been accepted in Amule.
Sorry for my bad english.

Hum? aMule has already KDE 3.2 integration much sooner than xMule had, mainly because xMule took the code from aMule, as usual.

So, I should delete the /emule folder in my Windows drive after installing amule on Linux in order to avoid crashes at start.!!! Is this true???

Please ask what's your question. I can't imagine why have you gotten to that conclusion :-S
Please re-type your problem (maybe o a different thread ? ;-)) so we can help you.

Well, after changing from 1.2.8 to 2.0.0rc7 amule crashes on start when logged as normal user. When logged as root it works perfectly. I've read in this same thread an advice to delete the old  amule ond/or emule folders -to discard old configuration files, i guess-. I'm installing on Linux mandrake, and deleting the old aMule folder doesn't help.

have you checked file permissions? surely not ;)
check permissions for ~/.eMule ~/.aMule/ ~/.aMule/* ~/.aMule/Temp/* ~.aMule/Incoming

Also, the configuration file is ~/.eMule.

Permissions are set as Reading and Writing allowed for User and others, without succes: program only finishes loading when logged as root
By the way, where is such /.eMule configuration file? Ican't find It...

Sorry for being so clumsy... I'm an absolut newbie in Linux : )

Solved!!! I didn't know it was a hidden file... rc07 works perfecly now. Thanks!!!
