[ILUG-BOM] DCOP Server Ka Funda

Wed, 26 Mar 2003 05:12:21 -0800

Hi,
 
casually I got your mail,
I hope to be useful for you.
Just now I got the same problem and
perhaps I have the solution (pheraps), try it !
 
IT SEEMS A PERMISSION PROBLEM
 
YOU SHOULD CHANGE THE PERMISSIONS FOR THE DIRECTORY /tmp/.ICE-unix
 
chmod 777 /tmp/.ICE-unix
 
What does appens ?
 
When You login into the KDE as a normal user,
the dcopserver create a file into your home directory
called
 
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     other         46 mar 25 17:09 .DCOPserver_sun03 -> /usr/johndoe/.DCOPserver_sun03_192.168.88.88:0
-rw-r--r--   1 johndoe  user          52 mar 25 17:24 .DCOPserver_sun03_192.168.88.88:0
 
this file contains a reference to the directory in a form like this:
 
local/sun03:/tmp/.ICE-unix/dcop1348-1048616687
1348
 
OK, now seems that your process can't write to /tmp/.ICE-unix
so dcopserver appears don't start.
 
Sincerely,
   Ottavio Profeta.
 
P.S.
   If you succeed make me know.

I just discovered....

DCOP is KDE's Desktop Communications Protocol. It is a lightweight IPC/RPC
mechanism built on top of the X Consortium's Inter Client Exchange
protocol.
It enables desktop applications to communicate reliably with low overhead.

But again, How should I rectify it ?
