Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntuone-client

When I turn on the computer, Ubuntu One does not start as it is configured to do. I am using Ubuntu 9.10, synaptic package 0.62.5. When I try to click on the Ubuntu One icon to connect, nothing happens. I should start and connect.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear Ubuntu One isn't working properly for you. Can you tell me whether you're ever able to connect? Also, can you let me know about how many files you have in your ~/Ubuntu One/ folder? Thank you, Joshua

Hi AnimusVirtus,

The error in your syncdaemon-exceptions.log appears to be related to extra spaces in your ~/.config/ubuntuone/sycndaemon.conf file. Can you replace the contents of this file with:

[__main__]
log_level = DEBUG

Then restart the Ubuntu One client. The debug logging will then be in place.

Thank you,

Joshua

I did what is said in: "Joshua Hoover wrote 20 hours ago: "comment but got nothing.
Now my /home/dubido/.config/ubuntuone/syncdaemon.conf looks like:

[__main__]
log_level = DEBUG

Here goes a new log attachment.

Ok problem solved
I id exactly as jake wrote. with some changes.

1. Go to the 'Account' tab in UbuntuOne web interface.
2. Click 'View the machines connected to this account'.
3. Select EVERY entry for the machine that is being repeatedly connected.
4. Click 'Remove selected computers'.
5. Purged ubuntuone by "sudo aptitude purge ubuntuone-client-gnome"
6. Because /home/***/.config/ubuntuone folder was still on my computer i deleted it to remove any configuration of ubuntuone off my computer
7. Add the machine to UbuntuOne agan. On one.ubuntu website --> accounts i add my computer again following the instalations instructions and installed ubuntu one again. Then Add my computer to my account.

After that ubuntu one connected with no problem.
