Title:
Nautilus failed to start
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I'm not sure this is reliably reproducible, but maybe there's
something helpful in the logs. I can't seem to start up Nautilus and
if I click on the folder icon next to a downloaded file in the
Downloads drop-down in Firefox then Firefox freezes. It was working
fine and then after I had closed it I couldn't start it again when I
tried later.
If I run Nautilus in Terminal it hangs for a while and then the
following appears in Terminal before it gives up:
(nautilus:15487): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **:
g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport: assertion
'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed
(nautilus:15487): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport:
assertion 'interface_->priv->connections != NULL' failed
Could not register the application: Timeout was reached
(nautilus:15487): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_icon_theme_get_for_screen:
assertion 'GDK_IS_SCREEN (screen)' failed
(nautilus:15487): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: invalid (NULL) pointer
instance
(nautilus:15487): GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_signal_connect_object:
assertion 'G_TYPE_CHECK_INSTANCE (instance)' failed
The Nautilus process was still running (which it does normally). After
I Ended the process in System Monitor I was able to start it up again
and now it works fine, I'm able to open and close the app again.
Something went wrong though and, though this is not easily
reproducible, stuff like this shouldn't happen in the first place!
Probably because I Ended the process and then started Nautilus again,
the 'File, Edit, View,...' menus now come up inside the window rather
than in the Indicator Applet Appmenu in the panel (I'm sure it'll work
fine if I restart the computer).
