Ubuntu One on Xubuntu not connecting

Asked by RavanH

Hi,

Although I read that Ubuntu One should work on XFCE, I cannot get the client does to connect at all. I start Ubuntu One from the Applications menu then click the tray icon and select Connect... Nothing happens.

Am I doing something wrong?

If I right-click the tray icon and select Go to Web my default browser (Opera) opens my one.ubuntu.com file sharing page. And if I choose Open Folder, thunar opens up like it should...

Side issue: Ubuntu One does not autostart upon login. I suppose I will have to add it manually to the Autostart App list?

Thanks for helping me out! :)

After starting the ubuntuone-client-applet from terminal and clicking Connect, I get this output:

Hi ravanhagen,

Have you ever had to add your computer to your account? (Installation step 4 - https://one.ubuntu.com/support/installation/) If you update to our release that we just made today, I believe you'll get past the inability to connect.

As for Ubuntu One not starting automatically at login, it should. I have a test environment with XUbuntu 9.04 and Ubuntu One starts at login without me having to set anything up special.

Thank you,

Joshua

Hi Joshua,

No, after the first time I started the client (as described by step 4) the tray icon appeared but no browser window with the 'add your computer' dialog.

Is there any way to force the client to reinitialize this process?

Thanks,
Allard

I think the problem you're seeing is due to the change in Ubuntu One's domain name. This is fixed in ubuntuone-client 0.95.1 (or 0.95.0+r213 if you're running from the beta PPA). The 0.95.1 package will show up in Karmic in the next couple of days (as it /just/ missed the alpha6 freeze).

i.e., you are suffering from https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntuone-client/+bug/426622

Can you help with this problem?
