| lubot | [telegram] <Halis> Could be a permission issue. Maybe someone knows | 16:57 |
| Mekaneck | @Halis they're long gone | 16:58 |
| Mekaneck | which you don't see at your end at telegram | 16:58 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> My LibreOffice has some minor problems with slide list window (undocked, refused to dock) | 19:22 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> So I had bright idea to delete /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/ | 19:23 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> I deleted it with sudo (warning that I ignored, I should stop and think at this point) | 19:23 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Now LibreOffice fails to boot | 19:23 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/10c6aa06/file_3429.jpg | 19:23 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> I did sudo apt-get remove libreoffice + sudo apt-get install libreoffice | 19:24 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> I did sudo apt-get purge libreoffice + sudo apt-get install libreoffice | 19:24 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> I applied https://askubuntu.com/questions/1347111/how-can-i-recreate-default-etc-cron-d-files to this folder | 19:24 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> How can I get working LibreOffice back? Without OS reinstall? | 19:25 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> "The application cannot be started. User installation could not be completed." with window title "LibreOffice 6.4 - Fatal Error" is not too useful; | 19:27 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Any reason not to use the current version? (I think it's 7.2) | 19:29 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> That is what I got from package manager, I will run update (re @Rodrigo: Any reason not to use the current version? (I think it's 7.2)) | 19:29 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Yep | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> after update: | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> sudo apt-get install libreoffice | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Reading package lists... Done | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Building dependency tree | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Reading state information... Done | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> libreoffice is already the newest version (1:6.4.7-0ubuntu0.20.04.1). | 19:30 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/ | 19:32 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Method 3 | 19:32 |
| tomreyn | that's not going to be needed to solve this problem, though | 19:33 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> heh, I just did it (re @Rodrigo: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/) | 19:34 |
| tomreyn | better try sudo sudo apt purge libreoffice* (don't miss the "*" character!) and then sudo apt install --reinstall libreoffice | 19:35 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> And? (re @matkoniecz: heh, I just did it) | 19:35 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> fail (re @Rodrigo: And?) | 19:35 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/10c6aa06/file_3429.jpg | 19:35 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> https://matterbridge.lubuntu.me/f3746046/file_3430.jpg | 19:36 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Same error? | 19:36 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Yep | 19:36 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Just different title - version string changed | 19:36 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> 😕 | 19:36 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Doing sudo apt purge libreoffice* | 19:37 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> This one actually seems to be doing reinstall | 19:37 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Though error remained | 19:38 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> WTF was in /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/ | 19:38 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> Can't you restore it from trash using file manager? (re @matkoniecz: WTF was in /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/4/user/) | 19:39 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> no, I did it from command line with sudo (because it refused to be deleted, that was dumb) (re @Rodrigo: Can't you restore it from trash using file manager?) | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Solved! | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/ somehow become root-owned | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Deleting it allowed libreoffice to boot | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> And thanks to that, somehow I was stuck on old version! (re @Rodrigo: https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2021/08/install-libreoffice-7-2-ubuntu-20-04-21-10/amp/) | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> So there is some benefit | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> 👍🏽👍🏽 | 19:40 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> tomreyn: thanks for an actual reinstall, I failed to find it | 19:41 |
| lubot | [telegram] <Rodrigo> I'm glad you solved it 🙂 | 19:41 |
| lubot | [telegram] <kc2bez> That is because you used sudo aka root. (re @matkoniecz: /home/mateusz/.config/libreoffice/ somehow become root-owned) | 19:42 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Yes, but I used it to remove folder inside this folder. Is it changing owner of folder where such command was run? (re @kc2bez: That is because you used sudo aka root.) | 19:43 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Also, I put ~/.config/libreoffice into git repo so I can roll back changes in a future | 19:44 |
| lubot | [telegram] <kc2bez> Probably got changed somewhere along the way. sudo should never be needed for anything in your own home folder unless the permissions get changed somehow. | 19:44 |
| tomreyn | matkoniecz: list files or directories not owned by your user / your primary user group: find $HOME \( \! -uid $(id -u) \) -o \( \! -gid $(id -g) \) | 19:56 |
| tomreyn | (within your home directory) | 19:56 |
| tomreyn | if you have a root owned file ".rnd" there, that's fine | 19:57 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> tomreyn: hm, it finds files which I own | 20:00 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> though something funky is with primary user group | 20:01 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> well, I will be reinstalling soon anyway | 20:01 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> Hello, sometimes internet stops. i use wifi connection. i make it disconnect and when i re connect wifi it just doesnt. idk why but it doesnt connect again. the solution is restarting computer or suspending and coming back. when i do that wifi can connect again. this happened severel times in 2 weeks... | 20:02 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> i know this may be ubuntu based problem, it s okay. i dont mind if i dont get any permenent solution here. just sharing so u know about this. | 20:03 |
| tomreyn | matkoniecz: if the user group differs it *can* still be fine. | 20:48 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Standard step: have you tried rebooting router? (re @tbs61: i know this may be ubuntu based problem, it s okay. i dont mind if i dont get any permenent solution here. just sharing so u know about this.) | 21:14 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Is it happenning when you connect via cable to router? | 21:15 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Is it happening only on specific wifi network or all of them? | 21:15 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> Are you using EOL OS? Have you tried updating? (unlikely to help, but why not try) | 21:16 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> yes, many times (re @matkoniecz: Standard step: have you tried rebooting router?) | 21:19 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> i dont use cable so idk (re @matkoniecz: Is it happenning when you connect via cable to router?) | 21:19 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> i use one only, i didnt have smilar problem for a long time before (re @matkoniecz: Is it happening only on specific wifi network or all of them?) | 21:20 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> i use latest from lubuntu.me and apply all updates (re @matkoniecz: Are you using EOL OS? Have you tried updating? (unlikely to help, but why not try)) | 21:20 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> the point is that sometimes internet is wonky, not wifi (usually wifi is failing point but at least once ISP was faulty and in some cases router was broken) (re @tbs61: i dont use cable so idk) | 22:08 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> And if you connect by cable and problem goes away then it confirms wifi issue | 22:09 |
| lubot | [telegram] <matkoniecz> (sorry that I cannot really help but I also run into "wifi fails for no clear reason" that I never really explained) | 22:09 |
| lubot | [telegram] <tbs61> it s okay really. thanks for giving ur time (re @matkoniecz: (sorry that I cannot really help but I also run into "wifi fails for no clear reason" that I never really explained)) | 22:12 |
