Re: [Zim-wiki] zim can't delete anything

[kwood...@gmail.com]

Balcal,

(Jaap, please correct this if I'm off base).

When you manually delete the notes folder, the Zim cache (in .zim
directory where your wiki was stored and/or the $Home/.cache/zim
directory would not have been updated.  So when you started Zim back
up, Zim would not have reflected the deletion.

Try deleting the contents of the .zim directory and/or the contents of
the $HOME/.cache/zim directory and restart.

After that, I'd suggest that, in general, you add/delete pages within
Zim so that it can update the cache on-the-fly to reflect to mods.

 directory would not have been updated.  So when you started Zim back
 up, Zim would not have reflected the deletion.

 But zim should detect it anyway. After restart of zim it checks the
 index against the folder structure and updates accordingly.

 A more likely reason is that other pages still link to the page, which
 would result in a placeholder for the page to still exist.

 Try deleting the contents of the .zim directory and/or the contents of
 the $HOME/.cache/zim directory and restart.

 This is rather drastic solution. If the index is out of sync you can
 rebuild it with the menu item in the Tools menu, or by running zim
 --index.

 After that, I'd suggest that, in general, you add/delete pages within
 Zim so that it can update the cache on-the-fly to reflect to mods.

 In general yes, but in this case that will probably trigger the same
 bug shown in the traceback.

 Regards,

 Jaap
