Apparently, there's something more to it. Looks like I've messed up
something else.
I've just had mnemosyne working fine on a python2.4 installation from
my usb stick. After trying the same usb stick on another system with
another python2.4 installation mnemosyne starts with "Unable to load
database. Creating tmp file."
And worst of all: the creation of said tmp file fails with
...
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Mnemosyne-1.2-py2.4.egg/
mnemosyne/core/mnemosyne_core.py", line 977, in new_database
save_database(contract_path(path, basedir))
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/Mnemosyne-1.2-py2.4.egg/
mnemosyne/core/mnemosyne_core.py", line 1094, in save_database
raise SaveError()
The log.txt file is pretty much useless:
2009-02-24 18:35:52 : Program started : Mnemosyne 1.2 posix linux2
2009-02-24 18:38:07 : New database
and nothing more. I sure hope that error messages get improved for
2.0, because I have absolutely no clue what's going wrong and where.
I do have full write access to the directory and manual creation of
files is no problem. There's enough free space as well, so I don't
know what's the problem.
Now what's even stranger is my "solution" to this problem:
Starting mnemosyne from the ~/.mnemosyne directory with
$ mnemosyne default.mem
actually starts up mnemosyne and correctly loads my database. Even
more so, it kind of 'repairs' the database, as after that I can
normally start mnemosyne using the default directory and it works.
Anyone minds shedding some light on what's going on here?
