[Bug 1103835] New: Firefox and other applications don't start with Glib-GIO-ERROR
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1103835 Bug ID: 1103835 Summary: Firefox and other applications don't start with Glib-GIO-ERROR Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Factory Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: sebastiankuhne1@googlemail.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- With the newest Tumbleweed installation (20180803), neither Firefox or any other browser start. Also LibreOffice doesn't. The error message, here with example based on Firefox: #### sebastian@linux-sebastian:~> firefox & [1] 4523 sebastian@linux-sebastian:~> (firefox:4523): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 07:19:41.301: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 4532 ExceptionHandler::SendContinueSignalToChild sent continue signal to child ExceptionHandler::WaitForContinueSignal waiting for continue signal... (crashreporter:4533): GLib-GIO-ERROR **: 07:19:41.378: No GSettings schemas are installed on the system #### Reproducible: Always. My system: KDE-Plasma: 5.13.4 KDE-Frameworks: 5.48.0 Qt: 5.11.1 Kernel: 4.17.11-1-default 64-bit 4 x AMD A8-7600 R7 It is; however, possible to start those applications as root. A newly generated test standard user did show the same issue. Any hint how to solve that? Best regards Sebastian -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

With Tumbleweed 20180818 the same issue again, unfortunately.
This has been also reported in mailing list "opensuse-factory": https://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-factory/2018-08/msg00220.html
If there is a hint how to solve that manually - please advise.
Best regards Sebastian
I do not experience the above-mentioned issue with TW20180818 and KDE-Plasma 5.13.4. Anyway, does "zypper in -f gsettings-desktop-schemas" solve your problem? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Many thanks, Frank, for your reply. Indeed, that works for me! I just did the "zypper in" as you suggested but I haven't checked before what was installed originally. Not sure what is the actual root cause - I did the update via "zypper dup" as known to the Tumbleweed users. However, closing this issue based on your help.
Best regards Sebastian
I am glad to hear that it solved your problem. The question of the reason for this issue still remains. Do you have additional repos enabled? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Additionally to the standard repos, I have just the Packman + libdvdcss, and Skype repo installed. The weird thing is that I had the issue some days ago, it resolved for some reasons with an update, and it came back again yesterday with another update. At the beginning of my bug report, there was no answer from someone - and I was believing it might be a special issue just for my installation. Then, yesterday, I saw the thread in the mailing list, and was alerted since obviously someone else had a similar issue. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Thanks for reopening.
Maybe another hint: Also LibreOffice didn't work. The only browser working was Konqueror. So, it seems to be an issue with non-KDE software or with GTK software?
Also one more thing, assuming that gsettings-desktop-schemas was installed already (is this right?), the proposed -f option did force an update. So, if I am not totally wrong, the actual issue could be that zypper dup did not update gsettings-desktop-schemas properly, and we had to force the update manually.
Is that the issue we should focus on?
Frank, another question I have: Why did you know that zypper in -f gsettings-desktop-schemas could be the workaround?
It was just a guess. In fact, since gsettings-desktop-schemas is installed on my system with KDE Plasma and given the error message “No GSettings schemas are installed on the system“ it could well be that the corresponding path was not set/updated properly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

After the update to TW 20180829 the same issue appeared again. Only "zypper in -f gsettings-desktop-schemas" did solve the issue.
Is there someone which could fix that?
Since I am a mere user, we have to wait for the maintainer/developer to step in. For the time being, however, could you i) force to reinstall the gtk2-/gtk3-packages that were updated with TW20180829; ii) provide "echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS"; iii) if the issue appears, please apply the above-mentioned workaround and provide "echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS" again. Thx. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

So, the $XDG_DATA_DIRSis set correctly. Do you have as user any other special environment variables set? The issue does not appear as root, right? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

No, I don't have any other special environment variables set. All is set as given by the standard installation. The issue appears only as standard user, as root I can start the applications. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
