Deluge won't start on Ubuntu's mainline-kernel

Post by waltherbans »

It's a little bit strange, I think: Because of some problems with ext4 and Ubuntu 9.04's kernel 2.6.28 I switched to Ubuntu's mailine-kernel and tried 2.6.29 and 2.6.31rc4. But Deluge won't start on these kernels. After starting Deluge in a terminal it's running without gui and without doing anything, printing:

Code: Select all

Fatal Python error: PyImport_GetModuleDict: no module dictionary!
. When I switch back to Jaunty's kernel 2.6.8 Deluge starts without any problems.

Any idea what's wrong? May I help with logfiles or debugfiles?

Sounds like something else is going on with your system.. I highly doubt a different kernel would cause an error like this. Perhaps some other libraries are getting mucked with? Have you tried reinstalling python/deluge? Perhaps try installing Deluge from source.

Thanks for your reply! Removing and reinstalling Deluge helped. But I had to delete all files in ~/.config/deluge/ (except the state folder).
