Deluge fails to start after install

[lazerbeat]

Hi there, this is my first post here. I have used Deluge happily for a while on Ubuntu 7.10 but after the upgrade to 8.04 I haven't been able to get Deluge to start. I have check the FAQ and tried this solution but I apparently dont have the relevant file in my system

http://deluge-torrent.org/faq.php#6n42 (related to persistant.state)

I get the following output when I try to run Deluge from the terminal

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/deluge", line 123, in <module>
    subprocess.Popen(["dbus-launch", "deluge"] + sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 594, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 1147, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory
Error in sys.excepthook:

    report_file = open(pr_filename, 'wt')
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/crash/_usr_bin_deluge.1000.crash'

Original exception was:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/deluge", line 123, in <module>
    subprocess.Popen(["dbus-launch", "deluge"] + sys.argv[1:])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/subprocess.py", line 594, in __init__
