Hi Sebastian! I recommend to reinstall the correct (in your case version 3.1.2) package of kdelibs3 with rpm -Uvh --nodeps --force kdelibs3-3.1.2<anything>.rpm . This is the package where /opt/kde3/lib/dcopserver.so is located in. Give this a try before trying weird stuff. Good luck! Daniel Am Samstag, 14. Juni 2003 13:26 schrieb Sebastian Wolff:
Hi all!
A few days ago I possibly made a big mistake - and now I don't know how to solve it.
I'm running SuSE 8.1 (i386) with updated KDE 3.1.1 rpms. I tried out a patch to give KWin window shadows that implied to compile the KWin module of the kdebase package.
So I downloaded kdebase3-3.1.1 sources and compiled kwin. It seemed that kwin was not compatible with other components. It did not start.
Compiling the whole kdebase package and running "make install" seemed for me to be right.
After that kdeinit aborted during the first phase of the splashscreen ("setting up interprocess commmunication...") giving the error "DCOP Server could not be started).
So I run "make uninstall": no change. I reinstalled the kdebase packages: no change. I updated to KDE 3.1.2: no change: "DCOP server could not be started"
If I call a KApp from xterm it says:
====================================== DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket Could not dlopen library dcopserver.la: /opt/kde3/lib/dcopserver.so: undefined symbol: _KDE_IcePoMagicCookie1Proc dcopserver: relocation error: /opt/kde3/lib/dcopserver.so: undefined symbol: _KDE_IcePoMagicCookie1Proc kdeinit: DCOPServer could not be started, aborting. DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Could not open network socket kio (KSycoca): Trying to open ksycoca from /home/light/.kde/cache-alf/ksycoca kio (KSycoca): Could not open ksycoca ======================================
Starting dcopserver from bash gives:
dcopserver: relocation error: /opt/kde3/lib/dcopserver.so: undefined symbol: _KDE_IcePoMagicCookie1Proc
The interesting thing: Removing all KDE packages and reinstalling works sometimes. - until I install any other package or compile any program via "make install". And now it is broken completely.
So, how you can see I need your help. I'm thankful for any ideas.
Thanks and Best Regards
Sebastian
