gtg doesn't launch anymore

[R. Rigaud]

I installed GTG on Archlinux via AUR (0.2)

It worked : Add / Del / Edit / Drag / DropTasks, Tags,...

But one time, I closed it and no way to launch it again.

In the terminal, I got :

[raph@myhost ~]$ gtg
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gtg", line 40, in <module>
    sys.exit(GTG.gtg.main(options, args))

    t = self.req.get_task(uid)

    empty_task = self.new_task(tid,newtask=False)

    uid,pid = tid.split('@') #pylint: disable-msg=W0612
ValueError: need more than 1 value to unpack

Is it a real bug ? Or is it my mystake ?

could you attach the files located in .local/share/gtg/ ?

Be sure to remove any personal information.

Could you also try a tar.gz version (or the trunk version) to see if it's a packaging bug or not?

[R. Rigaud (raph-rigaud)]

Here are these files.

I'll try tar.gz version as soon as I can

I reinstalled GTG via AUR, I reboot but still the same error.

I really don't understand : From the first install, and utilisation... to the error, I have :
- Add / edit / drag / drop / del tasks and tags
- close / launch GTG at least one time

I had no bug, no freeze, no new installation... I just closed GTG and relaunched a few minutes later, and I had this error...
I tryed to delete my .local/share/gtg folder but no way to launch properly GTG again.

I read the AUR install script for GTG : Seems to be very normal... and it was working the first time...

It looks like it fails to restore opened tasks, I don't know why. You
could try to delete your .config/gtg/ folder as well to return to a
blank configuration.

You're right !

It works...

Thanks for the "temp" tip.

[Lionel Dricot (ploum-deactivatedaccount)]

Did you keep a copy of .config/gtg folder so we can have a look at it and see what was wrong with it ?

[R. Rigaud (raph-rigaud)]

I didn't make a backup of my config files but I read them : it seemed to be clean, nothing special, just window positions...

If the problem reappears, I will post it here.

Please see this downstream fedora report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=565224
Somehow "opened_tasks = None," ended up in gtg.conf and new_task is tripping on "None"

[Luca Invernizzi (invernizzi)]

Hello Yanko,
the bug has been fixed in our trunk and backported to gtg 0.2.1 (https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~gtg/gtg/release-0.2).
