[Bug 380596] Re: linphone crashes in startup
I can confirm that the workaround in #9 does the trick, but only if you keep it in Audio only mode. If I try swiching it to Mode - Audio Video, it crashes. So it won't work with video. I added tags stating that this is a regression; it used to work for me pre-Oneiric. ** Tags added: oneiric regression-release -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380596 Title: linphone crashes in startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linphone/+bug/380596/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 380596] Re: linphone crashes in startup
Well, it looks like it's working! I made a few calls from my cell phone using Fring*. Even though I was calling myself it worked, Linphone started ringing on my computer and I started having a conversation with myself :) * (Fring is a mobile messenger app that allows you to use your SIP account to make calls from your cellphone, so it's basically a client application like Linphone or Ekiga, etc.) The only thing I couldn't do was test and verify that the video capability was working because I don't know people with SIP accounts and webcams (My cellphone doesn't have a web cam). I'm gonna set up my wife with an SIP account soon and I'll report back. One last note which is probably more of a hardware issue on my end is: Once in a blue moon my speakers and mic won't respond and Linphone is no fun. But I found that the easy fix in Ubuntu at least is to go to System Preferences Multimedia Systems Selector and just click on the Test buttons for Default output and Default input. After that everything is detected and works.

[Bug 380596] Re: linphone crashes in startup
Thanks Adam! I can confirm that post #9 works to create the hidden .linphonerc file in the user's home directory. This file is totally necessary in order for Linphone to work. It is a configuration file. The program will just continue to crash without it. According to Linphone's website it is supposed to be automatically generated on first launch but this does not happen. This should be a high priority bug for Ubuntu 10.04 as the program is basically useless until the user finds this post :) Maybe it's fixed in higher versions of Linphone 3.2.1. or Ubuntu 10.04 but what normal user would know how to get version 3.2.1. to work? Most people are probably gonna be like, this is trash... un-install. I'm just glad there were clever, considerate people who took time and effort to understand the inner workings of this software and post a solution. Seriously, who can just know these things? Linphone is such a good choice too because of it's multi-platform support (Linux, smart- phone, Mac, and Windows compatible). Sidenote: Once you get Linphone working... if it keeps crashing when you switch to Audio Video mode. Leave the setting under Nat and Firewall as Direct connection to the Internet. I'm behind a NAT/Firewall router so I entered my dynamic IP but it just kept crashing and defaulting to Direct connection to the Internet. I left the NAT/Firewall setting as Direct Connection to the Internet and Video mode instantly started working. I haven't placed a call yet but I could at least see my self- view and verify Linphone and my camera were working. I'll report back once I make a few calls.

There is no ~/.linphonerc after installation in ubuntu 10.04. Adding a proper file prevents crashing.

This problem persists. The linphone application crashes at startup in Lucid Lynx. Steps needed to reproduce: 1. sudo apt-get install linphone 2. Either click on the linphone icon in start menu or call linphone-3 on a command line 3. watch it appear briefly and then crash without any further notification.

strangely enough, I installed and used linphone with no problems today under Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic, but I get the crash under 10.4 Lucid on this netbook.
